Chapter 18: Return to Man

Since her birth, Mrs. Fifth has been smooth sailing. Now that she was put on a show by a concubine she had never looked at, how could she swallow this breath?

When even angrily ran to the Ronghua Courtyard to find Mrs. Ren to complain. At that time, Mrs. Ren was having lunch with Aunt Xiao.

The fifth wife didn't care so much, and after breaking in, she began to cry, accusing Aunt Fang of harboring evil intentions in order to let her daughter come out, and designed Ren Yaoyu. Aunt Xiao, who was sitting quietly on the side, also scolded her.

Old lady Ren immediately sank her face: "Presumptuous! Who allowed you to spill everywhere big or small? The Ren family's face has been lost to you! Get the hell out of here! ”

Lin had never seen Mrs. Ren who spoke so harshly to her, and she began to cry after being stunned.

At this time, the eldest lady rushed over when she got the news and pulled Lin aside to comfort her.

Aunt Xiao got up with an embarrassed face and said goodbye, the old lady was very annoyed that Lin's ignorance of the general situation, and made her lose face in front of outsiders, and after saying a few words to save Aunt Xiao, she glanced at Mama Gui and asked Mama Gui to send Aunt Xiao out.

Mama Gui understood what the old lady meant, and whispered to the eldest maid Jin Lian to get the silver, and then accompanied Aunt Xiao out of the house with a smile.

As soon as the people left, Mrs. Ren had a seizure: "It's because I've indulged you too much on weekdays to make you so disproportionate!" From today onwards, you will go to the ancestral hall for me to think about it behind closed doors with Yu'er! When to figure it out, when to come out! ”

The fifth lady is wronged, the reason why she is so presumptuous in front of Mrs. Ren is because Mrs. Ren treats her like a daughter on weekdays, and occasionally she is willful a few times, and Mrs. Ren will cover her up in front of her concubines and juniors.

Her mother, Mrs. Lin, had reminded her many times, asking her to have a little heart, no matter how good her mother-in-law was, she could not be her own mother, and asked her to be cautious in her mother-in-law's house, but she never thought so.

"Mother, if it weren't for Fang Yaru's slut who designed my jade, how could I be in a hurry?" The fifth lady softened her tone and cried.

Old Lady Ren was so angry that she slapped the table and said, "What slut? Even if she doesn't marry into my Ren family, she is still your cousin! You said that the Fang clan framed Yu'er, but there are witnesses or physical evidence? Yu'er has already admitted that the puppet is from her! ”

The fifth lady was speechless, she really couldn't come up with evidence.

But she has dealt with Fang Yaru for more than 20 years, and she knows Fang Yaru's personality better than her elders. If Fang Yaru didn't mix it up this time, she wouldn't believe it.

Why did everyone else be unlucky, but she benefited? This kind of bridge has been repeated countless times in her Fang Yaru's life, and she has risen to the top by constantly stepping on others.

"Let the table be taken down, I won't eat!" When Mrs. Ren saw that she didn't speak, she thought she was messing around, and she was very angry.

The eldest lady saw that the table of vegetarian dishes had basically not been touched, so she accompanied her to persuade her carefully.

The fifth lady over there was unwilling to say: "Mother, I have no complaints if you lock me up and go to the ancestral hall." But Yu'er is weak, can you let her come back first? As for the evidence you say, I ...... I can't take it out for the time being, but I'll ask someone to go to my mother's house and ask my mother to send a powerful mother-in-law over, I don't believe that anyone has done anything about the puppet, I can't find out! ”

The corner of the old lady's forehead jumped: "The eldest daughter-in-law!" Shut her up in the ancestral hall for me! Whoever dares to leave the house without my permission will be beaten to death if he finds out! ”

"Mother-"

The eldest lady hurriedly stepped forward to hold Lin Shi and whispered, "Fifth brother and sister, why are you so confused?" Although you used to be the daughter of the Lin family, now you are the wife of the Ren family. There is a saying that the ugliness of the family cannot be publicized, how can this kind of thing be allowed to interfere with the mother's family? Isn't this a clear way to tell your mother-in-law that you have been wronged by your in-laws? ”

The eldest lady glanced at the old lady and said, "Besides, the elders of your mother's family are naturally very good, but ...... But not all of them are good. Do you remember the Mama Chen who used to be next to you? ”

Lin was stunned for a moment, as if he remembered something, and his face turned white.

As the most favored daughter of the Lin family, how could the Lin family have fewer powerful dowry mothers-in-law and maids around when she got married? This Mama Chen was picked out by her mother at the beginning.

Mama Chen is also really capable, and all the things she knows about Aunt Fang are also heard from Mama Chen.

But a few years ago, this Mama Chen was found stealing a man, and quietly let a man into the inner courtyard to steal joy. This incident almost brought her reputation to the ground, and the last thing was that the old lady Ren used iron-blooded means to help her. It was also because of that time that several mothers-in-law and maids around her were either dead or sold.

The Lin family also lost money because of this matter, and they didn't dare to send people over again.

Fortunately, Mrs. Ren loved her very much, and she didn't suffer any losses in the Ren family, so the Lin family was also relieved.

Now that he heard the eldest lady mention this incident, the Lin family was naturally full of discomfort, and he didn't dare to say that he wanted to go back to his parents' house to move the rescuers.

"What are you doing here? Didn't you hear me? The old lady Ren drove people away with a cold face.

"Yes, mother. I'll take my five siblings out of the city. The eldest lady said respectfully, and then pulled the aggrieved fifth lady out.

At this moment, Mama Gui hurriedly ran back and said with a happy face: "Old lady, the third master and the fifth master are back!" The carriage has arrived at the door! ”

Mrs. Ren's face looked much better: "The third and the fifth are back?" Didn't you say that the road was blocked by heavy snow, and it would be delayed for a few days? ”

The Great Zhou Dynasty did not prohibit people from merchant backgrounds from participating in the imperial examination, and the second old lady of the Ren family had thought about the imperial examination when he was young. It's a pity that I haven't tried and failed, and I just won a show in the end.

Fortunately, in his generation, the Ren family was not short of money, and the old lady Ren made a lot of money for his younger brother to get an official position, although he did not have a serious errand, but he also became the president of a large chamber of commerce in Yanbei in the capital.

Ren Shiyuan, the eldest son of the old lady in the second room, was the second in the Ren family, and stayed in Baihe Town to serve his mother, and the fourth youngest son, Ren Shixu, was in Beijing with the second old lady, married the daughter of a five-grade Beijing official, and with the help of the Yue family, he found an errand for the procurement of the internal affairs government.

Ren Shimao, the fifth master of the big house, follows his uncle in the capital for a few months every year to learn some officialdom entertainment.

The third old man, Ren Shimin, is an outlier in the Ren family, he doesn't like business or being an official, but he is only interested in elegant things such as poetry, painting, playing the piano and dancing swords, and compares himself to the Wei and Jin dynasties. He went to Beijing this time to attend the five-year painting meeting in Beijing, and he has been away from home for half a year.

Today, the two brothers returned together.
