Chapter 216: Can't Be the Lord (1st Update)
This is the difference between men and women, women are always more sensitive and careful, Shu Yao knew from Xiao Tianyou's words that before the Zhao family was forced to leave Haicheng, because Zhao Dabao was seriously injured in the leg and hastily sold the house and shop, he must have suffered a big loss in terms of money. Originally, it was just a small business, not a rich family, how could it withstand any toss? It's still such a big family.
Shu Yao could also see that Zhao He was a strong old lady, and she felt guilty about Shu Jie, so she naturally refused to speak to the three of them.
In any case, the Zhao family is Shujie's foreign family, Zhao He is Shujie's maternal grandmother, back then, Xia Linxuan took his wife and children out of the house and lived in the Zhao family. Shujie was less than two years old, Zhao died, Xia Linxuan and his son could only continue to live in the Zhao family, and Zhao He and Shujie's aunt helped take care of Shujie until Shujie was five years old, and the Zhao family moved to Haicheng.
Now that the Zhao family has returned to Yulin, how can Shujie not take the initiative to lend a hand? Now the life of their three siblings is very good, if the grandmother and maternal uncle of the Zhao family are poor, not only Shujie will feel guilty in the future, but outsiders will also criticize it.
However, Zhao He's disguised it well, and several generations of ancestors and grandchildren were not embarrassed to wear them, so Shujie was not aware of their predicament. Moreover, Shu Yao believes that if Shujie gives Zhao He a silver ticket at this time, she will definitely not accept it.
So, Shu Yao quietly wrote a letter to trust Zhang Gui to take to Aunt Mei.
……
Zhao He's eyes when he looked at Shu Yao's sister and brother were a kind of gratitude mixed with complicated emotions, she just learned from Tianen's mouth, and arranged for Aunt Mei to send her silver, and it was Shu Yao who asked Wang Xi to help buy the shop. A ten-year-old child is so attentive and caring. I have to say. That Zhen is really good at raising children. is his own grandson Shujie, who was also raised by Zhen.
For Zhen, Zhao He is grateful, but the mood is really complicated, she only feels that Shujie is lower than Shuyao's sister and brother, and her daughter is lower than Zhen. She had just heard Shujie talking to the officials, the clansmen, and the neighbors. The "mother" mentioned repeatedly is Donnie Yen, and she is very uncomfortable.
But Zhao He also knows that Shujie really can't have any impression of his mother Zhao, he has been Donnie Yen's son since he was seven or eight years old. Moreover, the distinguished guests who came today only knew that the three brothers and sisters of Lu Dao Shujie were the children of the Zhen family, and the two fathers-in-law and grandmothers sent by the Queen Mother were also here for the Zhen family, so it can be said that their own daughters are completely touched by the light of the Zhen family.
Shu Yao glanced at the woman holding Xiao Tianyou behind Zhao He, and asked with a smile, "Grandma." This is the eldest aunt, right? The woman wore a dark blue gown with a simple bun. Clean and neat, with a friendly smile on his face.
Zhao He came back to his senses: "Yes, it's your eldest aunt and God's mother." Tianyou's sister Rika was helping out in the store, so she didn't come. ”
The three of Shujie hurriedly saluted Zhang: "Shujie (Shu Yao, Shu Wen) has seen my uncle"
Zhang hurriedly took out three purses and distributed them to them: "Good, these are all gadgets that your uncle got from Fanren when he went to sea before, they are not worth much, but they are still quite strange to look at." ”
Inside Shu Yao's purse is a beautiful small round box, and the inside of the lid is a glass mirror; Shujie is a men's ivory hairpin; The text is a very delicate dagger, and the dagger set is delicately carved with carvings;
These things were carefully collected by the Zhang family, and they wanted to leave them for their daughters and sons as dowries and dowries in the future. The three of them wanted to go back to Yulin, and the Zhang family deliberately found these three of the most elaborate ones as a meeting gift.
Seeing the sincere joy on the faces of the three of them, the Zhang family finally put their minds at ease, these were already the best things that their family could get their hands on. She had heard from outsiders that the three nephews and nieces often received rewards from the palace, for fear that they would dislike the gifts she had prepared.
Zhao Heshi saw the meeting gift that Zhang took out, and nodded with satisfaction, this eldest daughter-in-law is still sensible, if she also wants to be like Cheng......
As soon as Zhao He thought of Cheng, Cheng's voice came from the periphery of the crowd: "Let one go, let one let go, I'm Xia Zhuangyuan's mother-in-law, Brother Jie, you finally came back for a trip, and you will do the family affairs with your cousin Xinghua." ”
Mother-in-law? Apricot Blossom cousin? Everyone was shocked, this Xia Zhuangyuan still has a cousin's fiancée?
The Xia family and the neighbors of Xitang Street were also stunned, Shujie had just come back, when did he marry his cousin Xinghua? Several of them also learned from Aunt Mei that Dao Shujie had married the eldest daughter of the richest man in the Great Zhou Dynasty, the Nangong family.
Those well-informed people among the officials sneered on the spot, where did this madman come from? Xia Zhuangyuan didn't even want the noble daughter of the concubine Niangniang to marry as a flat wife, and there was a cousin's fiancée in this Yulin Town? Whether it is a flat wife or a good concubine, it is a big crime to deceive the king, but Xia Shujie personally said in front of the emperor that he would only marry one wife.
At the moment when everyone was stunned, Cheng had already pulled a red coat, and the bright red apricot blossoms on his cheeks rushed in.
Cheng shouted at Zhao He's family: "Mother, why didn't you wait for us, and you came first?" It's not what you said, this time Brother Jie came back, and he and Xinghua took care of his family affair, so that Xinghua could go to the capital to take care of their three brothers and sisters, and wait for Xinghua to turn fifteen next year? Everyone in the Xia family is here today, so it's time to set the wedding date, isn't it? ”
Zhao He was stunned, his old face turned red, he wanted to scold and remembered many outsiders around him, his lips trembled for a long time without a sound, and his hand pointing at Cheng was obviously trembling.
Shuwen snorted coldly: "My eldest brother has already been married in the capital, from the emperor to the neighborhood, who doesn't know?" When did you get married again with what apricot blossom peach blossom? ”
The patriarch of the Xia family also stood up: "Exactly, our Shujie's fiancée is the eldest daughter of the Nangong family, the richest man in the Great Zhou Dynasty, who are you, dare to talk nonsense here?" "Shujie's current achievements, coupled with that wealthy and powerful fiancée, are the pride of their Xia family, and they are their face, how can this crazy woman be allowed to make trouble? What should I do if the Nangong family misunderstands?
Cheng's shock, Shujie is married? What else does the emperor know? What can I do? She is out of the road today, and many people will come to greet the three Shujie brothers and sisters, including many officials. deliberately pulled the apricot blossoms to "fight against the water".
Coming back from the capital. Cheng's mother and daughter thought about the wealth of the summer house and the handsomeness of the scholar. Cheng mentioned it to Zhao He and Zhao Erbao once. was rejected by Zhao He's mouthful, only saying that Shujie obviously didn't like apricot blossoms. Zhao Erbao was originally moved by Cheng's words, and he also felt that it was good to kiss and kiss, but when he heard his mother say that Shujie didn't like apricot blossoms, he gave up.
Where can Cheng be willing? I heard that the bookmaker won the double champion of civil and military affairs, and he was even more itchy. After thinking about it day and night, I finally came up with this "trick" to fight against the water: use Zhao He's to persecute Shujie.
In front of everyone, Shujie and Xinghua have made a family decision, if Shujie doesn't admit it. If this family affair is not completed, Xinghua's reputation will be ruined, not only will it be difficult to marry again, but even the family affairs of Tian'en and God's gifts, and even the pear blossom and Tianyou of the big house will be affected.
Zhao He would definitely not allow such a thing to happen, so he could only be forced to help her persuade Shujie, and Shujie disobeyed his grandmother, which was unfilial......
Cheng's Zhilu Dao, Zhao He's is so strong, and he values face. Moreover, Zhao He no longer likes her. Xinghua and Tianci are always their own grandchildren, and Zhao He can't ignore them. If it weren't for this pair of grandchildren, she would have been divorced by Zhao He's family a long time ago.
The barefoot person is not afraid of wearing shoes, Cheng's is completely open, she just wants to gamble: Shujie is the champion, if he wants to be an official, he wants a reputation, does he dare to bear the bad reputation of disobeying his grandmother in public and killing his grandmother to death?
If she wins the bet, her good days will come, the mother-in-law of the champion! The wealth of the Xia family! It's all hers.
Losing a bet? Cheng never thought about it. She grabbed Shujie and Zhao He's life, how could she lose?
But now...... She didn't expect that in just a few months, Shujie had already made a marriage, listening to the tone of the head of the Xia family, book
Jay's genuine fiancée still has a lot of background.
No matter, it's normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines, Xinghua has her mother to help, and I'm afraid that I can't fight any delicate lady?
Cheng gritted his teeth, sat on the ground, and cried loudly: "Mother, what's the matter?" This family affair is the master of your old man's house, and now Brother Jie doesn't recognize it, it's a big unfilial piety, what will we do in the future? It's all ruined! ”
Zhao He was so angry that she almost fainted (what she didn't know was that Cheng's purpose was to make her "faint"), but Cheng was right, being made such a fuss by Cheng's not only ruined Xinghua's reputation, but also tired Pear Blossom and three grandchildren. Now, even if Cheng is off immediately, it will be too late.
Zhao He's eyes looked at Shujie with a pleading: "Jie'er, you...... Man with three wives and four ......"
Zhao He suddenly couldn't speak, and she saw the deep disappointment in Shujie's eyes......
Gritting his teeth ruthlessly, Zhao He continued: "It is normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines, it is my marriage to you and Xinghua, and now that you have another marriage, Xinghua will be a wife." "If Xinghua is a concubine, God's grace, God's blessing, and God's face are not good-looking, and it will be difficult to say kiss in the future. As long as the status of a flat wife is fine, how Shujie treats Xinghua in the future, she will not intervene silently, their mother and daughter don't know the height of the sky, so they can only suffer by themselves.
Shujie's heart suddenly turned cold, and he said coldly: "Our three brothers and sisters have the emperor's holy decree to 'give relatives' to the father-in-law, and the emperor personally ordered to 'treat him like a father'. ”
Zhao He trembled, his feet were weak, and he almost fell back, but fortunately, Zhang was on the side. Shujie's words cut her heart like a knife, not only the content of her words, but also the tone like the cold ice of December......
She knew that this grandson was completely separated from her. (To be continued......)
