104 Incense bait
There must be dead fish under the bait, although Gu Qingwan knew that the Dao was not so serious, but after she handed over the five hundred taels of silver to Mama Ji's eldest son, she knew that Mama Ji's two sons were going to make trouble sooner or later.
Mama Ji has two sons and two daughters, and the two girls got grace, and they both married out a few years ago, which can be regarded as getting rid of slavery. Mama Ji is the son of the family brought to the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion by the He family, and she was also a servant in the mansion back then, and now she has entered the Ruiwang Mansion, as long as Gu Qingwan does not let go, her children and grandchildren will naturally be slaves.
And Mama Ji's favorite is the younger two grandchildren, one is three years old and the other is about to be one year old, both of whom were born to her daughter-in-law. Mama Ji studied with He's family, and she ran before, just to let her son and grandson get rid of slavery and take other paths in the future.
It's a pity that she was put on the side by Xiao Sun, and Xiao Sun's matter of getting rid of slavery has been dragging on, but Xiao Sun's still wants to secretly contain Mama Ji, and she didn't let go until Gu Qingwan left the pavilion on the eve of leaving the cabinet. Unexpectedly, Gu Qingwan caught them off guard, and put the little Sun family to be the companion room, no matter how capable the little Sun family was, he couldn't put his hand into the palace.
Hateful people may not have no pity, although Mama Ji is painstakingly thinking about future generations, it is not a reason for her to betray her righteousness.
The dead can't speak, but the living can, since Mama Ji dares to give a hush money of two thousand taels of silver, she may not have left a backhand. Among the two sons, she prefers the youngest son the most, who picks his nose and eyes at the eldest daughter-in-law, but is very good to the younger daughter-in-law.
If Mama Ji left her hands behindβ she would have given it to her youngest son's family.
Although Mama Ji died unexpectedly, it was also her betrayal of the Lord that she was killed when she was greedy again. Even if the two thousand taels of silver tickets found from her fell into Gu Qingwan's hands, there was no need to give as much as five hundred taels of silver just for the cost of appeasement. Gu Qingwan gave all the five hundred taels of silver to Mama Ji's eldest son's family, and her youngest son's family must not give up.
Gu Qingwan asked Guiye's mother to stare at Mama Ji's family, but she didn't expect them to endure it for a month before they made some noise.
Mama Ji's eldest daughter-in-law's surname is Qian, which fits her temperament, and she has a feeling of seeing money. Previously, Mama Ji was close to her youngest son's family. She couldn't be red-eyed for a long time, and now she had to spit out half of the money in her mouth, so it was better to kill her.
The little daughter-in-law Peng is delicate, Gu Qingwan saw her once when she was in the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, she is not a stupid person, and she is very good at talking and doing things, otherwise Mama Ji would not be partial to her.
Mama Ji's family name is Tong. Although the two brothers separated, they still lived together. The Tong family had a few small fights a few days ago, but this time it was a big fight, the Qian family and the Peng family had a big fight in the courtyard, which alarmed many people, and Gu Qingwan naturally received the news.
"Mama Ji's Qiqi hasn't passed yet, so you guys are making trouble first." Gu Qingwan looked at the two people kneeling on the ground with a calm face. The tone is not very good. "Qian, you say, you are clamoring to see me, what is the matter?"
Although it was the first time for the Qian family to see Gu Qingwan, they had heard it when they were in the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion that Gu San was the most difficult to mess with. She shouted that she wanted to see the princess before, but she just scared the Peng family, but she didn't expect the princess to really pass her on for questioning, and saw that Gu Qingwan's expression was not very good. Qian's face was already pale with fright.
"This idiot!" Peng thought in his heart, so he squinted his eyes and glanced at Qian. She only dared to make a small fuss before, because she was afraid that the princess would know about this matter, and she would not be able to keep the five hundred taels of silver.
The Qian family was used to being sarcastic by the Peng family on weekdays, and before being protected by Mama Ji, the Qian family could only flatter the Peng family. Now that she was looked at by the Peng family with this kind of eyes, how could she still bear it, so she bent down and kowtowed three times, with a crying voice in her voice: "Back to the princess, the slave maid also knows that the Qiqi of the mother-in-law of the Dao Dao has not passed, and she doesn't want to make trouble at this moment, but the Peng family deceives people too much, so she wants the princess to administer justice for the slave and maid family." β
Peng's face turned red, but she also knew that Gu Qingwan didn't let her speak, so she didn't dare to speak for a while.
"The princess sent someone to send five hundred taels of silver to the slave maid's family to pay for my mother-in-law's burial, but before my mother-in-law was buried, the second brother was dragged over by the Peng family to divide half of the five hundred taels of silver." Qian really regretted it when he said this, although he only said the cost of the burial at that time, but if the princess really asked her to give half to the second child's family, she would lose more than she gained this time.
"The grandmother who came to give the silver at that time said that the five hundred taels of silver were used as the cost of the burial, and the rest of the bento was subsidized for us. If there is that grandmother, the Peng family wants to divide the money, and the slave and maid family naturally refuses. After that, Qian glanced at Peng's and said, "Peng's has made trouble a few times, and this time he went directly into the slave's house to rob it, what is the difference between this robber?" β
All the five hundred taels of silver were left for the Qian family, this is what Gu Qingwan told the grandmother, the Qian family was naturally overjoyed, and because of this sentence, she always refused to let go. But this sentence was said by the Qian family, how could the Peng family believe it, in the end, they were going to make a fuss.
Peng glanced at Gu Qingwan expectantly, Gu Qingwan was frowning, and after a while, he actually nodded and said: "I did say something like that, Tong Da is the eldest son, and Mama Ji's funeral is naturally handled by her, and my five hundred taels of silver are for Mama Ji to do after her death, and it is understandable that you can stay more." β
The Qian family suddenly became energetic, and kowtowed to Gu Qingwan again and again to thank him.
Peng's family almost crushed a mouthful of silver teeth, how much silver can be spent on a funeral, and the boss's family has been chewing enough for them for more than ten years. Yes, the princess is from a girl's background, how can she understand the cattiness of this.
"But the princess, for a funeral, only did the first seven, and spent dozens of taels of silver to reach the sky." Ignoring Qian's murderous eyes, Peng kowtowed and said, "The princess is merciful, but don't be deceived by the villain, after this funeral, they will have to pay more than four hundred taels." β
Gu Qingwan glanced at Peng's family, then slowed down her voice and said, "I don't know this, Mama Ji has been milking me for a while, she fell into the water and died, and I don't feel good in my heart." After that, she glanced at the two of them again, waved her hand and said, "If Mama Ji is here, she definitely doesn't want to see fratricide." The rest of the silver is still kept by everyone Tong, and every year when it comes to her death day, remember to go to the temple to recite scriptures for her. β
The Qian family is naturally undeserved, and the unwilling and decadent Peng family was personally sent out of the country by Fuman.
As soon as he came out of the Wanjuan Hall, Fuman sighed: "The two sisters-in-law of the Tong family still ask for condolences, and I will go to the garden in the west to pick some flowers and put a bottle for the princess." β
Qian glanced at Peng mockingly, ridiculed twice, and left without looking back.
Peng looked at the corridor alone for a while, and suddenly turned around and chased after the place that Fuman said. faintly saw Fuman's figure and hurriedly shouted.
"Second sister-in-law Tong, why did you get here?" Fuman asked in surprise.
Peng smiled awkwardly, and said, "I won't delay the girl to pick the flowers, let's talk while walking." The two walked a few steps, and Peng said, "I heard your second brother Tong say that it was Miss Fuman who found my mother-in-law that day, I just want to ask Miss Fuman about what happened that day, I don't know if it's convenient to say?" β
"What should I do, what's so inconvenient about this?" Fu Man laughed, then briefly explained a few words, and said, "It is precisely because Mama Ji went to the second lady that the princess suspected that the second lady did it." Sister-in-law Tong also knew that the second lady had never treated our princess very well. Shuangquan and I accidentally saw Mama Ji go to Jinhui Hall, and the princess rewarded us with a hundred taels of silver. β
After saying that, Fuman sighed again: "I didn't expect that it was actually Mrs. Qu who wanted to see money." By the way, the one hundred taels of silver on Mama Ji's princess was also given to Sister-in-law Tong. β
Few people know about going to the firewood room to block Mrs. Qu, so Mrs. Qu's silver when she saw her wealth changed from two thousand taels to one hundred taels, but for Mrs. Qu, one hundred taels is a lot of money.
Peng's gasped, it turned out that the eldest family had gotten six hundred taels of silver for nothing, and the one hundred taels of silver taken out from her mother-in-law, they actually ignored it quietly.
Peng's anger was very angry, and he hurriedly resigned from Fuman, and then went out of the second door angrily, and when he entered the courtyard gate, he went to Qian's house with a blushing face. Just as he wanted to knock on the door, he remembered the princess's previous words. Even if he made a fuss, most of the 100 taels of silver would be used as the cost of reciting scriptures to his mother-in-law in the future.
She trembled angrily, tears flowed down, and she ran to her room and cried under the quilt.
Tong Er drank with others, and didn't come back until midnight, Peng cleaned him, helped Tong Er to sleep, and when he turned around, Tong Er snored. But Peng's couldn't sleep, she only felt upset and irritable, and as soon as she closed her eyes, Qian's mocking words: "It shouldn't be yours, you can't get it in vain, you don't want to have this kind of rich life in this life!" β
She thought to herself, and it was soon dawning.
Although their Tong family is the princess's companion, the princess seems to have forgotten them, and the palace has not sent them any work to do. The steward of the house always said to wait, but after waiting for a month, there was no change.
Now she can only rely on her previous savings to support her, but fortunately, Mama Ji was very generous to Tong Er and her two grandsons before her death, and she also saved a lot of silver money in her hands.
But no matter how much money you have, you will sit and eat empty. When the three children were all growing up, they had a good life in the Dingyuan Marquis's Mansion, and their mouths were all raised. Now in order to save money, those who have coarse tea and light rice have lost a lot of weight.
Peng thought that it would not be very easy, and suddenly heard the door next to him "squeak" open, and the sound of big water came from the well.
It must be Xiaoyu who got up to fetch water and cook. Thinking of his sensible eldest daughter, Peng's heart softened, and he gritted his teeth and made a decision. (To be continued.)
