Chapter 203
Chen Lingyun waited in the concierge for a long time anxiously, and the concierge came back with a smile on his face, "Uncle, it's really unfortunate, my lord is not at home today, I don't know when Lu Dao will come back." Your letter has been handed in, and it will be presented when the master returns. β
A few days ago, Chen Lingyun came to Jin's house every day, and the porter was a picture of ignoring him, with his nostrils soaring to the sky and domineering, but now he is much more amiable. Although Chen Lingyun still couldn't see his father-in-law's face, he could see that the porter's face had changed, and his heart was slightly settled.
The concierge got Jin Tongzheng's orders, and the second got him a piece of silver, and he was very attentive when he took people's hands, and made tea for him to drink. Chen Lingyun said that he was a disciple of the Hou Mansion, in fact, he had been fighting on the battlefield for many years, and he didn't pay attention to food or anything, but he was also thirsty at this time, and the porter came over with tea, he thanked him and took it, and drank it all.
When the porter saw that he didn't have a shelf, he couldn't help but feel a little good, and quietly told him, "Don't worry, just go back and come back tomorrow." Chen Lingyun's heart moved, and he secretly stuffed the ingot of silver to the porter, and said goodbye and left.
When Chen Lingyun returned to the Linjiang Hou Mansion, Mrs. Qiu was still sneering, but his younger brother Chen Lingfeng was quite concerned about him, "Brother, does my sister-in-law still have to stay at her mother's house for a few more days?" Chen Lingyun has always treated him as a child, and patted him with a smile, "You don't care about this, study hard." After saying that, he wanted to go back to his room to rest.
Chen Lingfeng refused to let him go alone, and came out with him under the pretext of competing with him in marksmanship. The two brothers left the hall and went to a secluded place, Chen Lingfeng whispered: "Brother, there is a charming girl in your room, that girl is very charming, she is not a good person if she can't look at it, you must ignore her, don't fall for her." β
"Here we go again." Chen Lingyun frowned.
His mother-in-law, Qiu, couldn't leave him, hated him, and always wanted to make waves in his room. No, An'er had only been gone for a few days, and Qiu Shi reached out again and stuffed the bewitching maid into his bed. She wished that she was in the Linjiang Hou Mansion, so that An'er would cool down and never come back.
Chen Lingfeng was still chattering, "...... It's not that the girl can't have it, but she always has to know the way of the sister-in-law, right? My sister-in-law is not at home, and there is an extra girl in your room, which is not like a word. Brother, we have to learn from our aunts and aunts, and the concubines and maidservants are all under the care of our wives, so that we can be in order. β
Both brothers were very dissatisfied with the chaos in the Linjiang Marquis Mansion. However, Chen Lingyun envied the Pei family, while Chen Lingfeng admired the Wei Mansion. In Chen Lingfeng's view, like the Duke of Wei's mansion, although there are many concubines, they are managed by their wives and are obedient and close, which is the atmosphere that the noble family should have.
"I know what I know." Chen Lingyun glanced at his younger brother with relief and said with a smile.
"It's good to have a number, it's good to have a number." Chen Lingfeng was very happy.
Qiu always wanted to toss Chen Lingyun, of course he knew the truth. He didn't approve of it, but he couldn't do anything about his mother, so he could only remind him secretly. When Chen Lingyun was a child, his father was gone, and his mother-in-law couldn't tolerate it, so he was forced to take refuge with his uncle Chen Zhuang and fight for a brilliant future on the battlefield. Chen Lingfeng, he is the son-in-law and the only son of the Qiu family, the Qiu family is reluctant to let him endure hardships, and even more reluctant to take risks, so he only let him study in the capital, and he was raised more delicately. Despite this, the brotherly relationship between him and Chen Lingyun is very good, and when the Qiu family wants to toss Chen Lingyun, he always secretly helps his brother.
Chen Lingyun was distraught, he didn't go to the marksmanship competition with his younger brother, nor did he go back to the room to deal with the bewitching maid, and went directly to the study in the outer courtyard to rest. At night, he tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, his heart was messy, and after thinking about it for a while, he felt that he was not a person, concealed it before marriage, and persecuted it after marriage; After a while, I complained again, An'er, what's wrong with you calling her a mother, although she has some things to do and often bad things, but she is really my mother. Without her, there would be no me.
It wasn't until he fell asleep in a daze in the second half of the night that he dreamed in the middle of the night. In the dream, sometimes his mother was angry, and sometimes An'er was angry and wanted to go back to his parents' house.
When he got up the next morning, he didn't even have an appetite to eat early, so he left the Linjiang Hou Mansion and ran to the gate of the Jin family to wait. An'er, I miss you, I can't sleep if you think about it......
On this day, he had a breakfast at the gatehouse, and then a lunch, and it was not until late afternoon that Jin Tongzheng ordered someone to invite him in. As soon as Weng and his son-in-law met, Chen Lingyun looked ashamed, "Father-in-law, I'm sorry for you." Jin Tongzheng sighed and burst into tears, "An'er has finally been rescued, my poor An'er has finally picked up a small life." β
Chen Lingyun originally planned to take Jing to take the blame so that he could take An'er back, but after hearing Jin Tongzheng's words, his soul flew away, "What's wrong with An'er?" Father-in-law, what's wrong with An'er? "I looked anxious, I couldn't take care of anything, and I wanted to rush to the inner house.
Jin Tongzheng grabbed him and said softly: "The child's family has nothing to do, and he has found a short-term view, and now he has been rescued." Chen Lingyun's knees weakened, kneeling in front of Jin Tongzheng, tears streaming down his face, "Father-in-law, beat me and scold me, I hurt An'er, I hurt An'er......" He grabbed Jin Tongzheng's hand and slapped his face, obviously regretting it. An'er looked for a short time, An'er was a stupid child, she almost lost her life.
Jin Tongzheng went crazy with him for a while, slowly withdrew his hand, and said softly: "The cause and effect, her mother and I now know the Tao. Virtuous son-in-law, we don't blame you for hiding it before marriage, we only blame An'er for having a bad life and misapproving marriage. When An'er was unconscious, her mother and I were at a loss, and our old couple comforted each other, as long as An'er could wake up, we wouldn't ask for anything. β
Chen Lingyun fell to the ground and wept bitterly.
It turned out that when he was wandering in front of the Jin family, An'er was struggling with the little ghost of Hades in front of the ghost gate......
"I discussed with her mother that I want to bring An'er back." Jin Tongzheng's voice was desolate, "It matters that my daughter can save her life." We can't take care of the rest. Virtuous son-in-law, I want to stay An'er, you, go back alone. β
"If you want An'er to recognize your biological mother, with her pride, she will never will. If she doesn't admit it, you will definitely think that she looks down on you, doesn't respect you enough to love you, can't make sacrifices for you, can't give in for you. Even if you reluctantly take her back, you will have mustard in your heart, and it will be difficult for you and her to be a loving husband and wife. β
"In that case, it is better to separate one and two wide, and each life rejoices. She still goes back to her parents to be a delicate girl, and you ask for another lady as a wife. If you are a virtuous girl, you will recognize your birth mother. In this way, you and An'er have their own place. β
Chen Lingyun shook his head again and again, "No, father-in-law, I won't marry another wife, I won't." "An'er is my dream wife, I can't meet such a girl again in my life." Ask for another lady as a wife"? Whom I will marry? There is no second An'er in the world.
Jin Tongzheng's tone became sour, "An'er, she...... She has a lot of affection for you. She said that although she can't give up her pride for you, she can keep her chastity for you for life. She stayed in her parents' house and would not remarry. You...... You can rest assured......"
Don't worry about your former wife marrying someone else, she will guard you for the rest of her life.
"An'er loves me so much, but I force her to ...... so much" Chen Lingyun felt a lot of pain in his heart and regretted not being at the beginning.
What do the messy past events in the Linjiang Marquis Mansion have to do with An'er? It was the Qiu family who caused his mother to never return to the Linjiang Hou Mansion, not An'er. An'er is the granddaughter of the eldest princess of Longqing, how noble her status is, it is indeed difficult for a strong person to ask her to recognize her own mother as her mother-in-law.
Chen Lingyun repeatedly admitted his mistake and repeatedly said that he would not force An'er anymore, Jin Tongzheng just shook his head, "Biological mother and son, blood relationship is continuous." Virtuous son-in-law, how can a wife be compared to a biological mother. You and An'er are in love now, and you will regret it in the future. At that time, what should An'er do? β
Chen Lingyun wanted to say, "I won't regret it." When the words came to his lips, he felt that his words were insincere, and he stopped in shame.
Jin Tongzheng patted him warmly, ordered him to stand up and return to the Jianghou Mansion, "You have discussed it with Mrs. Qiu, and then send the book to you." An'er's makeup will be returned to my family later, it doesn't matter. Virtuous son-in-law, you have your persistence, and An'er also has her persistence, and the two of you are destined to have no fate. β
Chen Lingyun knocked his head a few times, "Father-in-law, I won't send and leave the book." As if he had expressed his determination with his actions, he kowtowed so hard that there was blood on his forehead.
Jin Tongzheng sighed, "An'er is very innocent, she married you, a wishful husband, it was a good time for the newlywed Yan'er, she was going out to play with great interest, who would have ...... Virtuous son-in-law, don't blame her, no one can stand it. β
Chen Lingyun thought about it, it was really like this. When An'er and herself went out that day, they were as happy as a bird, but after "she" appeared, the smile on An'er's face disappeared...... This is not to blame An'er for not being filial, An'er didn't know that there was a person like "her" in Ludao before.
"Father-in-law, you asked me to take An'er back, and An'er and I will live a good life and never mention that day again." Chen Lingyun begged in a low voice.
Jin Tongzheng refused, "Virtuous son-in-law, you still have to think clearly before you come back." Don't worry, An'er is now fine, with her grandmother, me and her mother, An'er is very comfortable in the Jin family. β
Jin Tongzheng didn't allow Chen Lingyun to pick up An'er, nor did he allow him to see An'er, so he sent him away.
Come back when you've figured it out.
Before leaving, Jin Tongzheng looked at Chen Lingyun with sympathy on his face, "An'er, an infatuated child, although he has decided to reconcile with you, he is still worried about you." She is worried that you will be known that your biological mother is still there, but you will hide it from the court, hide it from the world, and your reputation will be damaged, and you will be punished by the court. This is a big unfilial piety, no matter how low the status of the biological mother is, she is also the biological mother. After you and An'er got married, you have asked for a seal for her, but your biological mother has not. Virtuous son-in-law, you have to know that according to the law of this dynasty, the seal of the biological mother is before the wife's room, and the biological mother is not sealed, and her wife is not sealed. If these things are made public, how can you go out to meet people? An'er, a stupid child, she is too innocent, she doesn't know that Lu Dao can recognize her in private, but she doesn't recognize her publicly. In her opinion, if you don't admit it, it's enough, if you do, you have to let your biological mother stand in the sun and accept the imperial court. Virtuous son-in-law, An'er is so naΓ―ve. β
If you want to confess, you will confess it openly. If you want to toss something to confess your relatives in private, you pretend that nothing has happened on the surface, and you don't think about it. The daughter of the Jin family, I won't accompany you to do this dirty thing.
Chen Lingyun returned to the Linjiang Marquis Mansion listlessly, and only then got off the horse, and the little servant greeted him attentively and led the horse for him, "Uncle, are you back?" My aunt and grandmother came here this morning, and when we wait, you can count yourself back. β
The eldest aunt and grandmother in Xiaowu's mouth are Qiu's biological daughter and Chen Lingfeng's sister Chen Lingrong. She was married to the Qiu family's Xingguo Mansion, and her uncle was a father-in-law, more comfortable than ordinary daughters-in-law, and often went back to Linjianghou Mansion to sit.
Chen Lingrong and Qiu's temperament are similar, and Chen Lingyun, the half-brother, has never dealt with each other. Chen Lingyun heard her coming, and was annoyed, "It's here to see my joke." "Look, your eldest son finally married such a good girl as An'er as a daughter-in-law, but as a result, you just ran away from her. You're born unblessed!
Chen Lingyun took the reins of the horse from the hand of the little guy with a calm face, flew on the horse, and galloped away.
"I just came back, why did I leave again?" The little guy looked at his distant back, puzzled.
Chen Lingyun galloped wildly to the suburbs for a while, reined in the horse's head, and stopped in a place with lush vegetation, at a loss.
A young man who looked like a farmer was holding a little girl of six or seven years old in one hand and a little boy of four or five years old in the other, and walked slowly this way. The farmer was a dark-skinned and honest man, and he was clearly a loving father for the little girl's hair, and for the little boy for his clothes.
"What about the child's mother?" Chen Lingyun jumped off his horse and asked loudly.
It would be perfect if the farmer's wife and the child's mother were also there.
"I quarreled with my mother, and I went back to my parents' house in anger." The farmer smiled embarrassedly, "I'll take her now, pick her up, and bring her back whatever I say." β
The daughter-in-law quarreled with her mother. Somehow, Chen Lingyun felt sympathy for this young farmer.
"My mother regretted it a long time ago, and asked me to pick her up a long time ago." The farmer was stopped and questioned by Chen Lingyun, a brightly dressed and majestic figure, and he was worried in his heart, not knowing what to say, "I'll take her and take the big girl and the earth egg to pick her up." β
"Regret it?" Chen Lingyun's eyes darkened.
"Yes, I regret it." The farmer said cautiously: "My mother is looking forward to the good of her children, and my mother regretted it when she saw her daughter-in-law return to her parents' house in anger." β
"Mothers are looking forward to the good of their children", Chen Lingyun smiled bitterly when he heard this.
No, there are also mothers who are not like this, no matter what the child is, as long as he is comfortable.
I also have a mother-in-law, no matter how lucky I am to marry An'er, how difficult it is to have this sweet little day now, just mess with me. I asked her to wait patiently, but she didn't listen, and wanted to appear in front of An'er by herself when I was defenseless.
If she is also like the mother of the whole world, she only hopes that her child is good, I should wake up with a smile in my dream.
Chen Lingyun thought about his mother who had been in trouble repeatedly, and his heart was depressed.
The little girl and the little boy beside the farmer leaned on their father in fear and looked at Chen Lingyun timidly. The farmer was also very uneasy, "Master, can we go?" β
Chen Lingyun came back to his senses, took out a few ingots of broken silver from the purse on his waist and threw them to the farmer, "Go quickly." Bring your daughter-in-law back, and the family will live a good life. The farmer took the broken silver, and was a little surprised and inexplicable, hurriedly thanked him, took the two children, and hurried away.
Take your daughter-in-law back, bring your daughter-in-law back! Chen Lingyun turned over and got on his horse and galloped towards the city.
took An'er back, had a few children with her, had sons and daughters, and lived a harmonious life as a family......
Chen Lingyun went to the Jin family again to ask to see his father-in-law, and expressed his determination impassionedly. To the effect that his biological mother has long been "dead" and cannot be resurrected, his biological mother's sister has already left the house and is a person outside the party, so it is advisable to cultivate in the temple, and it is not easy to disturb her. In the future, except for going to the temple once or twice a month to see her, she has nothing to do with the Linjiang Hou Mansion. Of course, even if she is an outsider, it is not good to make her too bitter, and the temple's sesame oil money and various offerings are indispensable.
A satisfied smile flashed in Jin Tongzheng's eyes, but he was still not allowed to take An'er away.
"You're going to regret it. That's your biological mother's sister, and there's no way you wouldn't mind. Jin Tongzheng said: "Don't say that you, a young man, have two or three respected elders as guarantors, and I can't believe it. β
When Chen Lingyun was blasted out by Jin Tongzheng for the second time, he was not as dazed as the last time, and soon went to the Wei State Mansion and Pei Erye to ask for help. Wei Guogong heard that he was willing to repent, and nodded reluctantly, "Stinky boy, if you dare to turn over the old things again, I will beat you half to death." "Jin Tongzheng, why are you worried that you will regret it? You kid don't have credit.
Chen Lingyun obediently listened to Wei Guogong's scolding, thanked him, and went to Pei's house again, asking to see Pei Erye, "Uncle, you and my father-in-law used to serve in the same department of communication, you are a guarantor, and he has been trusted by the old man." β
Pei Erye smiled, "If you regret it in the future, or because of this, I won't have the face to see Jin Tongzheng." β
Chen Lingyun expressed his determination again in a righteous and solemn manner.
The corners of Pei Erye's mouth curled. Jin Tongzheng really had a good means, while telling Chen Lingyun that if your mother confessed, what serious consequences would there be, and on the other hand, he was moved by An'er's affection, making him willingly bow his head and admit his mistake. This is not enough, but also two respected guarantors, Chen Lingyun, if you have something to deal with An'er in the future, it will not only be the Jin family that will be offended, but also the Wei Mansion and the Pei family.
"Why would Grandpa Guo protect you, and why would I protect you?" Pei Erye said gently: "Although they are relatives of each other, it is not all because of this. Ling Yun, after you returned to Beijing, you have been following Grandpa Guo, he pities your talent and loyalty, so he will treat you differently from ordinary people. We respect you as a hero, bravely killed the enemy, captured the king of Han and the king of Yan in the Northern Yuan Dynasty, and made countless military exploits. β
"You are brave on the battlefield, shrewd in officialdom, but a little confused when it comes to family affairs. Lingyun, you must know that if a man is restless, he will not have a big future. β
Chen Lingyun shook his head to the ground, "Aunt Xie's teachings, Lingyun keep them in mind." β
Pei Erye and Wei Guogong came forward together and went to the Jin family for Chen Lingyun. Jin Tongzheng thanked him again and again, and set up a banquet to invite Wei Guogong and Pei Erhe, during the banquet, not only Jin Tongzheng was polite and polite, but Chen Lingyun toasted next to each other and listened to countless lessons.
Chen Lingyun finally got his wife back as he wished.
ββ¦β¦ His father-in-law is not easy to mess with. When Pei Erye entered the palace to visit his daughter and grandson, he told him something new, "I guess that Chen Lingyun has been restrained now, and he will no longer be able to turn over the storm." β
"What a great father-in-law!" Truly impressed.
The ground next to the father and daughter was covered with brocade felt, and Xiao Zhengzheng and Xiao Ping sat facing each other on the ground, playing cards seriously.
Both children were serious, their long eyelashes drooping from time to time, carefully studying the cards in their hands.
Second Master Pei looked at his two grandsons, his eyes full of smiles. looked at his son with his father's gaze, and said disdainfully: "Two illiterate children play cards, and they look quite like it." "Xiao Zhengzheng, Xiao Pingping, you don't recognize the two cards, and you don't know what to play.
Xiao Zhengzheng put down the cards in his hand, turned around, and looked solemnly.
Xiao Pingping learned everything from his brother, first he put down the cards like his brother, and then he also turned his little body, put on a straight face, and pretended to be deep.
Pei Erye scolded softly, "The child wants to praise, do you understand?" How can it be said that children do not know how to count? β
Look at the father, look at the son, and laugh embarrassedly, "Counting, counting, Xiao Zhengzheng and Xiao Pingping, two good children, both know how to count." β
