Chapter 231: Understood
Women with different identities must be treated differently when they are in their parents' family. But after getting married, the difference is not so big. It depends on what kind of husband the woman is marrying. The family of the fourth room and the family of the sixth room are both concubines, and Mrs. Wen wanted to slap the face of the fourth room, and by the way, she slapped her own face as hard.
Compared with Mrs. Wen's anger, Jin's expression seemed relatively calm, while Wen Chunyi's expression was as calm as usual. Mrs. Wen Liu was very exaggerated and told Mrs. Wen what happened, mentioning Wen Chunyi's unteachable and Jin's short-term behavior. Jin only said lightly: "The sixth lady is unkind to the elders and ruins the reputation of the juniors." Mrs. Wen's eyes fell on Mrs. Wenliu's face, and she blushed slightly, and retorted: "There are no good things to say about the quarrel, I just followed the words and rushed to talk, mentioning that Eighteen has a bad reputation outside since childhood." Can you stop me from opening a mouth, and can you stop me from opening a thousand mouths? ”
Jin smiled coldly and said, "Those people outside, at least they won't ruin my daughter's reputation in front of me." Besides, what do those people out there have to do with my daughter? You are her sister-in-law, she is just in charge of the affairs of the house, and she is more fair in her actions, you are an elder, and you do not understand the difficulties of the juniors in charge of the family, but come to provoke thorns everywhere. You are not the only one in this house who wants to marry her daughter, she acts according to the rules of the house, what is wrong with her? Mrs. Wen sighed that being a mother is strong, and the Jin family doesn't have such a way to talk on weekdays, but now it makes sense to talk about it.
Mrs. Wen felt a little confident in her heart, and she glanced at the housekeeper woman waiting in the hall. said with a cold face: "Over the years, as long as there is a sign of wind and grass in our house, there will be rumors outside. I don't want to hear the wind outside again. After Mrs. Wen ordered them to go down, she said to Wen Jiayi and Wen Chunyi, who were waiting on the side: "You go to the fifth room to have a look, but what else do you need to prepare now?" Wen Jiayi and Wen Chunyi both knew that this was an excuse to let them leave quickly, so as not to hinder her in doing things.
Wen Chunyi looked at Jin's expression, and she finally walked out with peace of mind. Wen Jiayi is a little far away from the big house. Whispered: "Spring." Don't you worry that the fourth aunt will suffer. I heard that the sixth aunt was more able to speak than the fourth aunt. Wen Chunyi shook his head lightly and whispered: "The eldest aunt is fair, not to mention that this matter is caused by the sixth lady rushing to the fourth room to stir up trouble, my mother's kind of person." They were all pulled up by her. It must be that the Sixth Lady is much more wrong. "Wen Chunyi even called Mrs. Wen Liu, 'Sixth Aunt'. She felt that it was a little redundant, that there were such elders, and they forced the younger generations to get up for their own small profits.
Wen Jiayi sighed softly. said: "My aunt said that the sixth aunt was not such a person in the past, probably because she had been in the field for a long time and was contaminated with the bad problem of taking advantage of small advantages. Wen Chunyi didn't think so, in the past, Mrs. Wen Liu was just cautious, but now she has both children and daughters, and she is thick-skinned in this mansion, she has no scruples about acting, she is willing to face, and she can get benefits, why not. Wen Chunyi only remembered that Mrs. Wen Liu enjoyed all the conveniences provided by the fourth room in the past, and she didn't even mention a word to the fourth room afterwards.
Later, the relationship between the two families was weak, and the husband and wife of the sixth room also found the door of the fourth room, and after knowing that it was the intention of the fourth room, the two of them did not have a trace of shame on their faces, and felt that Wen Chaoqing and the Jin family should continue to treat them as before. Wen Chunyi smiled faintly and said: "In the past, the six rooms did not live in the mansion for a long time, who could tell whether it was a person or a ghost." Now that the sixth room has lived in the house for a long time, how to behave as a person, it can continue to be covered. My father and the sixth master are brothers, and in the past, my father was very careful about the sixth room, and he would send someone to take care of the affairs of the sixth room every quarter.
But later, when the old aunt went, my father thought that it was the old aunt who gave birth to their brother after all, so he sent a letter to the sixth master. Whether the sixth master comes or not, he always has to give a word. But from beginning to end, the sixth master treated my father as if he had never received a letter from my father, and he was always so cold to my father. Because of this, my father and mother stopped taking care of the affairs of the sixth room, and as a result, they came back with a room of people who were still looking for trouble in our room. The people in their room are bullying my parents for not speaking to the outside world, and our brothers and sisters also feel that such things don't need to be publicized everywhere. To put it bluntly, it is a family ugliness that cannot be publicized. ”
The people in the fourth room, to put it bluntly, also looked at Wen Chaoqing's face, and saw some things in their eyes and remembered them in their hearts, but they couldn't say it to others. After all, at that time, Wen Chaoqing and the Jin family voluntarily dealt with it for the sixth room, and they couldn't complain about others. Wen Jiayi looked at Wen Chunyi in surprise, and said softly: "Your four rooms are the least spacious one in the house, and during your winter day, I heard that only the main room is heated, and each bedroom will be heated at night." Your father and mother used to save six rooms. Wen Chunyi nodded solemnly and said: "This was the case in the early years, when Brother Jun and I were still young and could sleep with our parents. ”
Wen Chunyi was actually glad that the relationship between the fourth room and the sixth room had become indifferent early, otherwise, I was afraid that in the winter they would follow, the sister and brother would still have to squeeze into the same room with Wen Chaoqing and his wife. Wenfu Gongzhong will provide a certain amount of heating firewood, but it is not much, and each room still needs to spare some of it. Wen Jiayi looked at Wen Chunyi with some sympathy and said, "Fortunately, you were young at that time, if you were still like this now, you could only sleep cold in the winter." "Wen Chaoqing and Wen Chaocheng brothers are already in their own ways, but I am afraid that after the Wen Mansion separates in the future, if this situation continues, the two brothers may not be strangers to each other.
Wen Jiayi and Wen Chunyi went to the fifth room, and Mrs. Wen Wu and Wen Yuyi greeted them. Wen Yuyi took Wen Chunyi's arm and asked in a low voice: "Eighteen, the sixth aunt went to your yard, and your mother dragged her to the big house?" Wen Chunyi understood that there were few people who couldn't hide that movement, so she nodded happily and said, "My mother and sixth aunt are talking to the eldest aunt now. The eldest aunt asked us to ask the fifth aunt, the marriage of the two sisters, but do you still need to prepare in advance in the house? Wen Chunyi didn't think it was such a humiliating thing, there was such a mother who was dedicated to protecting her, she was full of joy and was about to bloom.
Mrs. Wen Wu looked at Wen Chunyi with a worried look on her face and asked, "But if you want me to go over and help your mother talk, your mother rarely causes trouble." "In the past, the concubines of the Wenfu may have had their own thoughts, but the people in the fifth room have lived together for so long, and they have never had so many things as after the return of the sixth room. Wen Chunyi shook his head lightly and said, "Thank you for Aunt Five's kindness." My aunt is fair, and my mother is an honest person and will not suffer. Wen Chunyi believes in Mrs. Wen's character, and over the years, Mrs. Wen has always handled things fairly and well-founded, so that people can't raise objections.
Mrs. Wen sighed softly and said, "Your eldest aunt is afraid that no matter how fair she is, she can't stop the prejudice of people with hearts." After Wen Chunyi was reminded by Mrs. Wen, her heart sank, there was still an old lady Wen in the house, if she intervened, she was afraid that this matter would change again. In Mrs. Wen's heart, the fourth room is far less intimate than the sixth room. This matter, if it is terminated here in Dafang, the Jin family will not be able to suffer. It's just that with Mrs. Wen's conduct, I'm afraid that after Mrs. Wen is dealt with fairly, she will not be convinced, and she will definitely find a reason to make trouble with Mrs. Wen.
Wen Jiayi and Wen Chunyi were in no mood to stay in the fifth room for a long time, and Mrs. Wen Wu and Wen Yuyi went to the big room with them. The big house was already calm at this time, and Mrs. Wen left in a huff a while earlier, leaving Mrs. Wen to accompany the Jin family to talk in one place. After Mrs. Wen Wu entered, looking at the expressions of the two of them, she knew that things were not as simple as Wen Jiayi and Wen Chunyi, but I was afraid that with Mrs. Wen's temperament, she would definitely make a bigger deal if she didn't take advantage of Mrs. Wen's temperament. Mrs. Wen Wu hurriedly spoke: "Sister-in-law, fourth sister-in-law, let's go and say hello to our mother." ”
Mrs. Wen shook her head lightly, Jin's face turned pale, she glanced at Wen Chunyi, who also looked unhappy, she cheered up and said: "I don't provoke people on weekdays, it's not that I'm afraid of things, but I think it's all a family, and I don't need to worry about small things." Something has come to me, and I have nothing to fear. Wen Chunyi approached her side and whispered: "Nothing can be said to people, I believe in my mother's character." "People like Kim would rather sit at home and make clothes for the family when they have a little free time. Such a person has the leisure to seek other people's business.
Mrs. Wen Liu has a lot of leisure, she rarely uses needlework, and she is single-mindedly trying to get her daughter's dowry. If Wenfu is a prosperous situation created by Wen Chaocheng, she is willing to grab more and occupy more, and the people in other houses have no opinions. It's a pity that Wen Chaocheng has been an official for many years, and he has only seen the six rooms in the account, and he has never seen the six rooms out of the account. In the second, third and fifth rooms of Wenfu, not to mention how much money is paid into the house, at least you can see the accounts every year. Although Sifang has also not entered the house, Wen Chaoqing has always managed the affairs of the house and has never used excuses for personal gain.
Mrs. Wen shook her head lightly and rejected Mrs. Wen's suggestion, saying, "Mother is getting older, and the doctor said that the mood should not fluctuate too much. We are daughters-in-law, and we can't be 100% filial, at least let her worry less about idleness. I have already sent someone over to tell the second brother and sister, if the sixth brother and sister pass, let me try to block it and persuade the sixth brother and sister to return. In two days, when the six siblings are calm, I will talk to her. The rules of marriage in our house are like this, I have always been a bowl of water, and as for the younger siblings to compensate for their children with dowry, it is the younger siblings' own business. The economy in the house has been flat all these years, and the sixth brother and sister have been outside, and she has some misunderstandings, so she finally wants to find an understanding with her one day.
