Chapter 258: Embarrassed, the clan fire is extinguished!
The third wife was very angry.
She has been a tough and proud woman all her life, and although her husband is not a long house, it is rare for her to become a talker in the clan in terms of seniority.
But in fact, her husband has been in control of the Qing family for decades, and she is very satisfied with this nominal fact.
People are self-motivated, they all have envy, and she also has them.
She also thought about whether to help her husband ascend to the position of patriarch, and whether to catch this missing name for him, after all, the patriarch is in the capital, and his husband has the final say in the clan.
But later, she found that the long house was not weak, and although her husband was capable, he was still not as good as his brother, so she immediately took it away and didn't think about it.
Later, she had children and had planned for them, but although the current patriarch Qingyue only came back a few times, she also saw the gap between her children and others.
That ability, vision, is not a little bit worse.
So she sank, and An An took care of everything in the clan with her husband, because she knew that with her husband and son, she was not qualified to covet that fame.
Just when she was dying, her grandchildren gave her hope.
She suddenly thought, maybe the grandchildren will be able to catch up with that gap?
Maybe God took care of it, and soon there was information from the long room that Jiang gave birth to a girl, and Jiang died of illness on the second day.
There are no sons-in-law in the long house, only daughters-in-law, which means that in terms of inheritance, the long house of the Qing family is a little untenable.
After that, the concubine was appointed by the emperor to marry as the crown princess, and after the Ge family was corrected, she also gave birth to the son of Qingxuan. Although it can be regarded as a descendant. But it's too small. No matter how you look at her, she has a head start on her grandchildren.
Because her eldest grandson Qingfeng and granddaughter Qingguo are both talented and good seedlings.
So she spared no expense to invite the great Confucian of the world to be the eldest grandson Mengxue, strict etiquette is heavy rules and diligence, and Qingfeng was not disappointed by her, she has been studying hard since she was a child, and she is outstanding in everything after all!
She knew that Qing Feng had the hope of being the patriarch, even if he was not a member of the long house, but he had the admiration and love of the people in the clan.
Thereupon. When she knew that the big house of the Daoqing family had suffered an accident, she thought that the eldest grandson generation had a chance to ascend to the throne.
So she took her eldest granddaughter and uncle back to her parents' house, in order to borrow some strength from her mother's family, and after a few years, she could naturally become the new patriarch of the Qing family with her strength.
It's just that who would have expected that at this juncture, Qing Huan, the eldest lady of the Qing family, would come back, and she was still such a woman who dared to talk to the emperor and the emperor in her husband's mouth.
Let's be honest. When she first heard about it, she admired such a woman. But selfishness always hopes that his eldest grandson can win.
Therefore, she hopes even more that the eldest grandson can defeat such a woman whose reputation has been ruined with his own strength and take charge of the clan order.
But who would have expected that his son would not be angry, and he would play such a trick with Yun Gu - they killed the eldest lady, which seemed to make way for Qing Feng, but in fact, it was equivalent to using the most disgraceful means to get a chance to get a position.
She was angry, she was even more disgusting, because the hopes of most of her life had completely changed at this moment!
If she had used stratagem back then, how could her husband not have the name of the patriarch to this day?
Why wouldn't she?
Because she is a descendant of the Kong family, although this family is no longer one of the four major families of Nanzhao, but in the end, it is the rules and etiquette that have been taught since elementary school after the aristocracy, so that she understands that this kind of petty behavior is the most spurned!
Does she need the name?
Demand, who doesn't want to be splendid in themselves? But she wants to get it openly, and when she wants to accept everyone's gaze, her back can be straight.
So over the years, she has passed on her hope from generation to generation, and finally has a chance today, but she didn't expect it to become like this, how can she be embarrassed? How does this make her face the persistence in her heart?
If it weren't for the irretrievable fact that the wood had become a boat, she couldn't wait to kick her bastard son out of the door at this time, telling him to roll as far as he could, and don't disgust herself!
Therefore, she said this sentence angrily, flicked her sleeves and left the stone house, she felt that she had no face to stand there, she felt that she didn't even have the face to face the ranks of the ancestors of the Qing family, because her son violated the family motto, and even violated the most important etiquette that cannot be discarded as a nobleman!
As soon as the third wife, Kong left, Qing Hai felt even more that he couldn't hold it back.
He was originally a rule-abiding person, but now his momentary selfishness was overwhelmed and he didn't care, and things turned out to be like this, and his wife's words of reprimand made him feel that his waist couldn't stand up, after all, after glancing at Qing Tao and Qing Yun, he sighed and chased after his wife.
As for Qingguo standing at the door, he didn't even have a broken face.
"What did you just say...... Say it's killed, Miss? Although Qingguo heard her grandmother's reprimand, she also heard the most critical sentence, and at this moment she looked at her fifth uncle and aunt in surprise, not understanding how her relatives could do such a despicable thing.
After all, she has been learning skills with her brother since she was a child, so the etiquette she learned can't tolerate such darkness.
"Kill! What's wrong? Qingyun's face was full of gloom, she did not hesitate to kill Qing Huan for the sake of the third uncle's room, she didn't ask anyone to be grateful, but she didn't want to be scolded like this. She looked at Qingguo angrily: "Are you also ready to reprimand me like the third aunt?" ”
"Don't dare!" Qingguo despised it in her heart, but in the end, Qingyun was her aunt, where was she qualified to put her beak, she lowered her head at the moment.
"Humph!" Qingyun snorted coldly and walked towards the door: "I killed the person, if this matter is revealed in the future, I will bear it, I am not like you, I pick myself clean one by one, and play the flower intestines of fame and reputation!" As soon as she finished speaking, she walked out of the hall, not caring how the most abrupt words were slaps in the face and how they hurt people.
Qing Tao gritted his teeth with an ugly face, then glanced at Qing Guo, and got up from the ground: "It's good to hear that you understand yourself!" What is known from the outside now is only the eldest lady herself, who is missing! ”
Drop such a sentence. Qing Tao also stepped out of the house. He didn't want to be in front of a junior. Such a humiliation.
In the stone house, there was only one Qingguo left in an instant.
She stood in the room for a long time before she could sort out what was going on.
Then she looked up at the proud horse in the house, and felt that her heart was filled with indescribable depression.
……
In the evening, when the leaders of the clan learned that the third wife had returned, they spontaneously came to the courtyard of the ancestor - because the third wife, who was so lively in the past, would always hold a family banquet and drink with the heads and faces of the clan. Chat.
But today, after they came, they found that it was not quite right, although there were still more than ten tables of wine banquets in the courtyard, but only the ancestor sat at the table of the first banquet, and the third wife did not see anyone at all.
"Ancestor, why didn't Mrs. come out? Isn't it tired of tossing and turning on the road? Qing Hai glanced at him and nodded unnaturally: "Well, she's ...... Not very comfortable. ”
When the people heard this, they immediately looked at each other. Immediately, they all stared at the obvious gloom on Qing Hai's face, guessing whether it was the ancestor who was careless and provoked the wife who had a more direct temper. Therefore, the wife did not give face to the ancestor again.
Of course, guessing is speculation, and no one will be so stupid that it will be written on their faces, so when Qinghai said that, everyone deliberately exchanged some gossip with each other, and only met their own guesses in each other's eye contact.
Qinghai beckoned everyone to dine, and everyone naturally pretended to be relaxed, but soon someone found out that the eldest lady of the Qing family, Qing Huan, was not at the banquet, so they asked why the eldest lady didn't come, after all, although the eldest lady is a higher level of sect master, but Qinghai and the third wife are also her elders, aren't they?
Qing Hai was silent and did not answer, because he felt that he could no longer say these words about Qing Huan's unknown whereabouts.
"Miss, she didn't come back until now after she went out last night, and I don't know where she went......" At this time, Qingtao walked into the courtyard while talking, and stood in front of Qinghai: "Dad, my son still hasn't been able to find Miss." ”
Qing Hai glanced up at Qing Tao, waved his hand, and said nothing.
Immediately, everyone adjusted the direction of their guesses - it turned out that the ancestor was displeased that the eldest lady was missing again, and the third lady refused to come out, but she was afraid that she was angry that the eldest lady would not give her face! However, why is this eldest lady missing again? Could it be that you ran to the land of the Sea Dragon Country again?
Everyone made eye contact again, and at this time, someone noticed that the eldest girl Qingguo and the eldest aunt were not present, so they asked in a low voice, and someone said that the eldest aunt was sick again, and the eldest girl was taking care of it......
At this time, when everyone was buzzing, Zhang Chao ran into the courtyard quickly, and whispered a few words in Qing Hai's ear, and Qing Hai immediately said, "Let him come in!" ”
Zhang Chao agreed and ran out, and soon he helped a person to walk in, and everyone knew that this person was from the Sea Dragon Kingdom as soon as they saw the person's dark skin.
"The envoy of the Dragon Kingdom in Xiahai, on the order of the prince of my family, has come to deliver a message." The poor messenger was once again looking ugly at this moment—there was no way, as soon as he crossed the border between the two countries, he was inexplicably disgusted.
"Please."
"The prince of my family is very happy to make a peace agreement with the Qing family, so he decided to come here the day after tomorrow to sign a friendly agreement with the Qing family's commander, and ask the Qing family to be ready." The envoy forcibly suppressed the nausea, conveyed the words of the prince of the Sea Dragon Kingdom, and shook his body a little after speaking.
"Okay, I know the way, I will arrange everything to welcome the prince of your country!" Although Qinghai was depressed, he couldn't make a face with the messenger of the other family at this time, he responded politely, and after the messenger responded, he was helped down by Zhang Chao.
"Do you see how ugly the messenger's face is?" Qing Seventeen, who came to enjoy the banquet, said with a smile on his face at this time: "Look at that uncomfortable appearance, I must have been tossed enough by the method of the eldest lady!" ”
"Not really! Our boundary landmark is now empty and guarded, but the people on the other side are so afraid to come over, just such a messenger, before entering, he vomited outside for a while! "Some people immediately agreed with the words, after all, they had been trapped by the Sea Dragon Kingdom, and they couldn't wait to see each other make a fool of themselves at this time.
"The eldest lady is really good, but I don't know what she did, she actually let the prince of the Sea Dragon Kingdom come to talk about peace with us with her tail between her legs!" Qing Seventeen sighed sincerely, many people also nodded one after another, Qing Tao's eyes turned darkly when he heard this, and he raised the wine jug and was just about to beckon everyone to drink, diverting the topic, but suddenly someone in the banquet pointed to the stone house: "Oh no, clan, clan fire is extinguished!"
