Chapter 14: Two Fingers
Well-behaved, he snuggled in Pei Erye's arms and listened to his grandfather and father talking.
At first, I thought that the case mentioned by my grandfather was purely a civil dispute, and I was still actively thinking about countermeasures for the victim Wu, "What's wrong if you don't become an official?" I'd rather take off Lin's black yarn than let myself be more 'sister-in-law'. ”
A big villain like Lin shouldn't indulge him! It turns out that life is good, but once he is developed and is taken by beautiful women, his wife will become a brother-in-law and call his bride sister-in-law! It is conceivable that with the twenty-eight-year-old Jin family, he will definitely ignore the Wu family, who is already old, and wait for the cold life in the future.
Instead of being a "brother and daughter-in-law" in humiliation, it is better to simply break up in two and block the road of the negative person, so that he can hold the child at home with peace of mind.
But when I listened a little further, I realized that this was not a simple civil case. In other words, through this civil case, it can reflect the tip of the iceberg of the current political situation.
“…… Who is a serious person who does this kind of thing that hurts both face and morality? Only the Jin family is willing to do this. Pei Erye's voice couldn't hide the contempt.
How many miserable young people are there in Beijing, why bother to marry a married man? Speaking of which, the husband is a man who already has an original partner and three sons-in-law, isn't it very good?
Wu changed from a good original partner to a "younger daughter-in-law", the sky fell suddenly, and he almost jumped into the well with his youngest son in his arms...... Lin is certainly ruthless and shameless, but the Jin family is also bullying others and doing this immoral thing.
Pei Taishou played with the fine porcelain teacup in his hand and said lightly: "The girl of the Jin family is probably really unable to get married." Therefore, a married man is willing to give in. ”
A normal girl from an official family should have come to the door to propose marriage, so why should she rob a married husband as a son-in-law? Lin is just an ordinary jinshi, and he is not a person with amazing talents, how can he be like this.
The Jin family is hungry.
Director Jin turned out to be also from the imperial examination, and his status was noble. Later, he became inflammatory, and he insisted on joining the clan with Concubine Jing Jin in the palace, and he tried his best to curry favor with Concubine Jing, so he began to be laughed at, and most of the courtiers looked down on him. Who is Concubine Jing? Originally, he was just a native of the capital, but he was occasionally fortunate by His Majesty, and he was lucky enough to give birth to a prince, and he was barely promoted to the throne. With such a background, Mr. Jin is still in a hurry to stammer, which is really despicable.
"Jin Changli wants to be promoted and make a fortune, he wants to go crazy!" Most of the gentry in the capital commented on Mr. Jin.
What's more, the daughter who was "married" by Director Jin was born in the outer room and was only recognized back to the Jin family two years ago. Mr. Jin's reputation is not good, and Kim's is such an embarrassing identity, who is willing to want it? Jin was probably really out of options, so he had to rob his son-in-law, and he didn't hesitate to do anything about it.
"Like him, he really should be impeached by the imperial history, spurned by the world, and dismissed by the ministry!" Pei Erye was very dissatisfied with what Director Jin did.
"Do you think he hasn't been impeached? More than one imperial historian has impeached him, but there is no movement in the cabinet, and there is no movement in the palace. Pei Taishou looked stunned.
Someone above is in charge of the bailout. Whether it is a cabinet minister or a noble person in the palace, it is unknown.
Now the government is also clear, but no matter how clear it is, there are villains with lofty ambitions.
Both father and son were silent, quite depressed.
"Ahh She stretched out her little arms and clapped her hands as she smirked at the candles, as if she loved the light of the candles.
Pei Taishou and Pei Erye heard the delicate "ahhh "Small, you can just "ahhhh
Seeing his daughter smiling at the candle, Pei Erye lowered his head and asked softly, "I like bright lights, right?" Good daughter, this is a candle, which is used for lighting at night. ”
He nodded happily, as if he could understand his father's questions and explanations.
Under the candlelight, her palm-sized little face was shiny and shiny, which was very attractive. Pei Taishou looked at the heat in his eyes, smiled and asked, "I've been hugged by your father for a while, do you want to change someone?" ”
Pei Taishou is the head of the family and a majestic patriarch, but when he speaks to his little granddaughter, who is just over half a year old, his voice is very soft.
Second Master Pei was happy in his heart, "Small, if you can make your grandfather so pleasant, we will only have you in our family." Whether it's my fathers or my brothers, I don't have this treatment. ”
Raised his head and laughed stupidly twice, and enthusiastically stretched out his little arm to Pei Taishou and replaced!
Pei Taishou held his little granddaughter in his arms, and for a while, he was indescribably satisfied. What kind of merit to build, what kind of industry to establish, and what kind of stack to love? It's better to make fun of Sun.
"So small, so soft." Pei Taishou said with a smile.
Moving around in his arms very invisibly, moving himself comfortably, Fang sighed comfortably. Alas, there is no way, when I meet a grandfather who can't hold a child, I must be self-reliant. Otherwise, it will be uncomfortable.
Seeing the sigh like a little adult, both grandfather and father thought it amused. How old are you, what sorrow do you have, and what do you sigh about?
Sighed, laughed again.
Her smile was innocent and bright, and it made my grandfather and father look gentle and full of joy.
"A smile can dispel the cold and bring a spring breeze!" Pei Taishou sighed.
Pei Erye nodded in agreement, feeling a little proud and quite moved in his heart-
Uncle Pei and Pei Sanye often write back, they have arrived in the capital safely, and temporarily live in the Lin Mansion. Lin Shangshu and Mrs. Lin are both familiar elders, and the uncle of the Lin family is also an old acquaintance, and they are very well taken care of in the Lin Mansion.
Gu and Xu received the letter from home and were relieved.
The day of the test is approaching day by day, Gu Shi was worried about Uncle Pei, and specially asked, "Good girl, your eldest uncle is going to take the test, can he win?" ”
Nodding very seriously.
Gu almost shed tears of joy.
"Then, the palace test is divided into first, second, and third, how many are you in your uncle's meeting?" Gu is concerned about the ranking again.
Without thinking about it, he stretched out two fingers and came out.
"Second class?" Gu's eyes lit up, "Is it really Erjia?" , the eldest aunt is going to faint with joy! ”
There are only three people in Yijia, and I dare not think about it; The top three are the same jinshi, which is a bit embarrassing; I am already very lucky to be able to get into the second grade.
He nodded very seriously.
Gu fell happily on the Luohan couch.
looked at Gu with sympathy, there are college entrance examination candidates at home, it's really worrying.
These two fingers are not raised for nothing. Her pair of loving parents once talked about Uncle Pei's examination and palace examination, and her father asserted, "The eldest brother has only passed the examination, and he is a stable jinshi." It will not be cut off until the temple is in the top three. ”
Her mother asked casually, "Xianggong, why are you so sure?" Her father smiled, "Father's family affairs, the emperor knows the truth!" Pei Taishou was a courtier of the emperor's trust, and when he went to Beijing to report on his work, he asked about official business, and the emperor also asked him about his private affairs: how many sons did he have, what were the names of the sons, what talents did they have, and so on.
Let Pei Kai's eldest son palace be in the top three? The emperor won't.
Second Master Pei is very sure, "As long as the eldest brother can pass the test, he will be done." ”
It's a very curious child.,It's also an unconscious child.,Whenever her parents discuss things in private.,She's always very temperamental to eavesdrop.。 No, the information from the eavesdropping quickly came in handy.
If she had never eavesdropped, one, two, three, or three numbers to choose, she really didn't know which one was more appropriate to choose, and it was not nonsense.
The Gu family was worried about Uncle Pei's imperial examination, while the Xu family went back to the room to open Pei Sanye's letter and looked at it carefully, "...... The father-in-law and mother-in-law are in good health, and everything is fine at home...... I had a feast with my uncles, and my second uncle drank to a happy place, and I wanted to send a beautiful maid to serve me......"
Xu angrily threw the letter on the table. Second brother, you don't usually pay attention to it, even if you make trouble for me like this! You wait, see that I can't sue in front of my mother, and let my mother teach you a lesson!
Xu Shi was annoyed for a long time, picked up the letter and continued to look down, "...... I'm scared, if my father knows the truth, he will have to kill me! I repeatedly refused, my second uncle repeatedly refused, and in the end, I had no way to have children, so I told me everything, 'My father has instructed me that I have three sons, and I have no worries about children. If you dare to have a concubine and a maidservant, you will be killed! When my brothers learned of what had happened, they sympathized with me, and the second uncle was even more surprised, "Take it back, sister-in-law, I'll take it back" ......."
Unconsciously, the corners of Xu's mouth curled.
The second brother's beautiful maid didn't send it out, and the husband was still icy and jade...... Xu covered his mouth and smiled.
“…… Lady, I rejected my second uncle, did I do a good job? I was thinking that my father was going to fight, but I was also thinking about you...... Lady, I miss you......"
Xu Shi looked at Pei Sanye's rogue words, and his face turned red.
Xu Shi took the letter, only to feel that this thin rice paper was hot, making people blush and heartbeat, "When I was at home, I was mediocre, but when I went out, I learned to talk sweetly!" Xu Shi lightly, gently resented.
For the first time in his life, Xu felt that marrying Pei Sanye was worth it and not aggrieved.
If his marriage went smoothly back then, without any twists and turns, I am afraid that he would have married into some prince's mansion now. The husband's family will be very rich, much richer than the Pei family, but there will definitely not be such a father-in-law who is upright and broad, and there will be no husband who only guards himself.
"My father and mother are right, it is my blessing to marry into the Pei family." Xu remembered the persuasion of Duke Wei and Duchess Wei when he left the cabinet, and smiled slightly, "I thought my father and mother were coaxing me." Now it seems that the old man has experienced a lot, seen the factory, and seen clearly. ”
