Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Evils of the Great Clan
The Jiang family came to the imperial capital this time, half of them read the letters of Yun Feng Huang Xie Xiao Chen's daughters-in-law, sons, and daughters-in-law, and they were angry, and half of them were forced to go on the road by their in-laws.
She is well aware of the nature of her own flesh and blood, Xie Xiaoliu is relatively the simplest, and as for her daughter and daughter-in-law, they are actually not fuel-efficient lamps.
It's just that her daughter is deeply loved, and she was spoiled by Qi Jiulu, and she acted more domineering.
Xiao Chen looks virtuous and sensible, but in essence, he is also unwilling to suffer, just because he has not been held by the stars in his mother's family or his husband's family like Yun Fenghuang, so he shows his gentleness, but he is a temperament with a needle in his mouth.
All in all, the Jiang clan didn't believe that they could suffer any big losses at the hands of the other people in the room!
At most, Yun Fenghuang wants to beat his family, and Xiao Chen wants to take advantage of it.
So although he was rushed out of the door in a hurry, the Jiang family was not in a hurry along the way.
This is because it is winter, and it is not easy to travel from the north to the south, and the wind and snow are surging; Second, she didn't want to be led by her daughter and daughter-in-law when she came to Dijing because she was too anxious, she had to take advantage of the road to think about it and summarize it, speculate the truth, and decide what kind of attitude she would adopt after arriving in Dijing?
But Rao was ready to play with her son, daughter-in-law and daughter along the way, and she couldn't help but be moved by Xiao Chen's appearance of washing her face with tears all day long: "You get up and talk about it!" Wei Niang is already here, from the time you entered the door to the present, when did Wei Niang make you suffer grievances in vain?! ”
Xiao Chen also believes in her mother-in-law's methods very much, she makes such a big effort, just to borrow the Jiang family's hand to step on all the other rooms!
So that they can't fight with the four rooms in the future!
even, even suppressed Xie Driyu and his wife who accompanied the Jiang family.
Thinking so, she whimpered and thanked Jiang's support, and greeted Xie Driyu and his wife with a crying voice, and when the family entered the house, she began to cry with a handful of snot and tears to tell the whole ins and outs, of course, it was a version of adding oil and vinegar.
The point is to emphasize how ungrateful the other rooms are, how she and Xie Xiaoliu want to maintain Yun Fenghuan but are helpless because of the situation, and how the mothers in the palace are still not understood for the nonsense of those Xie children......
In the end, Xie Meng came out to greet the Jiang family, and cried: "Niangniang is really heartbroken this time!" Originally, he only sent Kuo'er, but Meng'er was not sensible, and helped Kuo'er say a few words, which made Niangniang more and more sad, and even Meng'er was sent back! Speaking of which, the daughter-in-law is useless and failed to teach Meng'er well! ”
Jiang Shi also looked at Xie Meng a little unkindly when she heard this, she favored this granddaughter, but the fundamental reason was because Xie Meng's appearance was similar to Yun Fenghuan's childhood.
After all, there is only one biological daughter, and several granddaughters who are not their own biological daughters, which is more important, needless to say?
At this moment, he reprimanded Xie Meng unceremoniously: "I always think you are smart, why did you go into the palace and stay by your aunt's side and get dizzy?!" I didn't know how to help your aunt in trouble, but turned my elbow outward to outsiders! ”
Xie Meng was a little aggrieved and said, "Cousin Kuo is also my Xie family's disciple." ”
"Then is she a mother with you?" Xiao Chen said angrily, "It's not even a grandmother!" If you are her own, she may not think so in her heart! ”
“…… Cousin Kuo has always let me in the palace. Xie Meng muttered, "Isn't this just my own person?" Speaking of which, I'm still an older sister. ”
Jiang waved his hand to stop Xiao Chen's scolding, asked Xie Meng about the details, just sneered, and said, "You guys are really confused, you can't see such a clear calculation in the second room?" also asked Xie Kuo to really go to the palace, this is also Huang'er's vigilance, take this opportunity to send people out, otherwise, Meng'er will not be able to use people as stepping stones in the future? ”
Seeing Xie Meng's stunned, she said coldly, "You also know that you are a sister, and she makes you very different?" Then you think that everyone in the palace is blind and can't see it? In this way, people don't all have to think that you are arrogant and unreasonable, but Xie Kuo is well-behaved and sensible? are all nieces raised by the concubine, and the sex-child gap is so big, do you want people to say that you are not as good as Xie Kuo except for being closer to the concubine, or do you want people to say that your mother-in-law and grandmother have no way to teach, and you can't compare with the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in the second room? ”
Xie Meng was not afraid of her father and mother, and even Yun Fenghuang dared to be coquettish and tricky, but she was always a little worried about this grandmother.
I didn't dare to say anything at this moment.
"I've heard what you've said on the road." Jiang glared at her and didn't say anything more, but turned to Xiao Chen, frowned, and said, "Of course, the second room, the third room, and the fifth room are not like words, and you and the thirteenth are not angry!" Even if the concubine chooses someone from the big house to be the colt, can the brother and sister-in-law she cares about the most be the two of you? With the support of the concubine, you can't suppress those people, it's a shame! ”
Xiao Chen didn't dare to refute, and immediately knelt down and pleaded guilty: "What my mother said is that my daughter-in-law also hates herself for being clumsy, but my daughter-in-law is such a stupid person, but what should I do?" ”
As he spoke, he covered his face with a handkerchief and began to weep.
There are older subordinates on the left and right who come up to intercede: "I beg Mrs. to calm her anger, my young lady is trying her best to speak for Niangniang, but the people in those rooms are menacing, and they think that they are relatives, and they feel that Niangniang can't do anything to them in the end, so she doesn't pay attention to the young lady's reasoning, and is only blindly arrogant...... The young lady of my family is a female streamer, and there is really no way! ”
couldn't help but mention the first two days, "At that time, the young lady asked them to think about the grievances that Niangniang had suffered at the beginning, but they were good, and even said that they were right not to care about Niangniang's life or death, otherwise where would Niangniang enter the palace, and how could she be a concubine for Your Majesty?" Madame, are you saying this in human terms? The young lady was so angry that she almost fainted! ”
"What did I tell you before?" Jiang listened, his face sank like water, looked at Xiao Chen, and said slowly, "The truth is to tell people." Some people don't behave like people, pigs and dogs, reasoning with them is like playing the piano to a cow! ”
Xiao Chen cried: "What my mother said is that this is all bad for daughter-in-law!" ”
But I secretly rejoiced in my heart, knowing that my mother-in-law was really angry.
Originally, because the Jiang family had four sons and one daughter, in line with the normal state that rare things are precious, although they didn't care about their sons, they had become accustomed to feeling more sorry for their daughters over the years.
In addition, Yun Fenghuang is a jealous master by nature, and he competes with Xie Fengfeng for favor since he was a child, and several sibling brothers are generally much older than her, and they are even more vulnerable in snatching their mother's love, and they have never had to stand by and watch their young sister get tired of being coquettish in Jiang's arms.
So even if the Jiang family knows that this daughter is scheming by means, in fact, the four sons together may not be her opponents, but they still can't help but care about her the most - she is such a sharp pearl in her palm, and she is under the fence of the emperor's capital, which is enough for her to cry secretly many times, accidentally entered the palace after several life and death, and paid the price of childbirth with the mood of life and death before becoming a concubine, outsiders envy the Jiang family's good life, having such a powerful daughter.
Jiang's own heart was heartbroken several times.
She told Yun Fenghuan that it was okay if she couldn't give birth, that it was good to enter the palace, and that Qi Jiulu was not a good match...... Actually, it's not like there is no choice?!
If she had a choice, she would definitely hope that Yun Fenghuang would marry Qi Jiulu and have children and be beautiful.
At least Qi Jiulu dared to be sorry for her daughter, she had a way to clean up this son-in-law.
But if Chunjia is disgusted with Yunfeng Huang, what can the Jiang family do?
She just wants to go to the Taichu Palace to kowtow and beg Chunjia's subordinates to show mercy, but she may not be qualified!
…… Otherwise, why did she coax Qi Jiulu to centrifuge with her family openly and secretly after Yun Fenghuang left the Northland? Isn't it just so that one day he can renew his relationship with his daughter?
In Jiang's view, his daughter's life is really miserable.
As a result, the people in the other rooms still said such cool things???
Is this when her own mother died???
Or when the concubines were fighting for the right to be a housekeeper, she was too gentle that these juniors had forgotten her methods???
Suppressing his anger, the Jiang family asked Xiao Chen not to say these things first: "I, an old bone, have been driving this road for a long time, and I can't bear it, so let's take a break and talk about it in detail." So is your brother and sister-in-law. ”
Now that she is so angry that it is difficult to hide, she is afraid that she will die of anger here on the spot if she listens to it again.
Xiao Chen hurriedly wiped his face, got up to apologize to Xie Xiaoyu and his wife, saying that he had been worried about the mother in the palace for the past two days, sobbing day and night, and he was confused, but he was neglecting his younger brother and sister-in-law.
"What did the thirteenth sister-in-law say?" Xie Driyu has the best relationship with Yun Fenghuang among the brothers, and his temperament is also somewhat similar, so he said angrily at this moment, "We are all close relatives, why do we have to be so angry?" Besides, even my sister-in-law is upset for my mother's mother, let alone my mother's brother? I wish I could go out with a knife and find those bastards! ”
Xiao Chen squinted slightly when he heard this, and felt that the sentence "sister-in-law" of the little uncle was very connotative, and he was just Yunfenghuan's sister-in-law, not the meaning of flesh and blood, so he said immediately: "Isn't it?" At that time, I also told them, you and Niangniang can't write two words of thanks, how Niangniang has treated her brothers in the past two years, everyone sees it! Those of us who are sisters-in-law, although we often enter the palace to accompany and comfort our mother, but what is it compared to the grace of our mother? However, they only cared about the benefits given by their mothers, and they completely ignored the flesh and blood! It's really cold! ”
The implication: What if it's a brother-in-law? Those of you who are brothers will ask for benefits from the concubine! It's better for us sisters-in-law to go into the palace from time to time to accompany us, which comforts my mother's heart to some extent.
"Thirteen sisters-in-law......" Xie Driyu raised her eyebrows, and was about to return the salute, but the Jiang clan was impatient, and shouted: "The grievances with your cousins haven't been clarified yet, and you yourself can't wait to fight?" Or in front of me! Why, are you planning to work together to drive out the people in the other rooms, and then pinch yourself in the four rooms? ”
"Mother, you misunderstood, the child just said a few words casually to the thirteenth sister-in-law." Xie Driyu hurriedly said, "There is no other meaning." ”
Xiao Chen glanced at him and said, "Mother, it's this Li'er, the daughter-in-law just wants the eighteenth brother to know how difficult it was for the mother to be at that time." ”
Jiang Shi had a cold face and said: "I haven't reached the time when my old eyes are dizzy, and I don't bother to worry about it in the other rooms, but in the fourth room, who dares to fight in such a shallow way, get out with me!" The concubine can rely on herself today, even if she supports you out of flesh and blood, but if you not only can't be her wings, but become a burden to her, don't think that I can't bother to clean up the door! Our family has a small industry, and when I am old, I have my own slaves and maids to serve the decoction, and I still live without a son and daughter-in-law to serve! Moreover, the Xie clan is flourishing, and without you people, it will not be extinct! ”
This is serious, Xiao Chen and Xie Xiaoyu and his wife quickly knelt down to plead guilty, begged her to calm her anger, and promised "never again".
“…… There's no peace of mind in this bastard!! The Jiang clan secretly hated in his heart, but it was not good to continue persecution at this time, so he only asked them to go and act separately with a cold face, and he took his henchmen to rest in the courtyard that Xiao Chen had prepared a long time ago.
But in fact, how could the Jiang family be able to rest?
After closing the doors and windows, she frowned and asked, "Look, what should I do about this?" ”
"It's easy to do in other rooms." Jiang Ai, a confidant who accompanied the marriage, said bluntly in a low voice, "When the mother is at home, except for the twenty-two sons in the third room, there is actually no friendship with the other cousins. The reason why they are used is nothing more than for the sake of the same children of the Xie family, and there is still a shortage of manpower in the four rooms. It's our four-room ...... Although you just scolded the thirteenth young lady and the eighteenth son, this uncle and sister-in-law just met and that's it, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to be peaceful in the future. ”
Jiang sighed and said, "I knew it would be like this, so I didn't want to stay in the imperial capital in the first place. Otherwise, the two old ones in the family at this time would not urge me to calm down the incident and persuade the concubine not to share with the family, but suspected that I deliberately suppressed the other rooms and wanted to make the four-room family dominant. ”
paused, "I'm afraid that in the eyes of the concubine, I think I don't feel sorry for her enough, so I want to go back to the Northland, and I don't want to stay in the imperial capital for a long time!" ”
"Niangniang is your biological flesh and blood, what can't be said between this biological mother and daughter?" Jiang Ai comforted, "And you are doing this for the good of your mother." After all, you came here now, it was the old lady who cried, made trouble, and hanged herself, and swore that you would deal with it impartially. If you stay here in the morning, I'm afraid that those rooms will pry the old lady and the old lady and force you to give their knees a 'fair'! ”
"The Xie clan has been detained in the Northland for too long." Jiang said with emotion, "The main reason is that the ancestors have never been a real hairpin family, and what is said about the long flow of water, although it has ensured the wealth of several generations, in the final analysis, the bearing and vision are insufficient." Now that His Majesty has only been in power for a few days, the concubine said that she was favored, but in fact, her foundation was not stable, otherwise she would not have promoted her brother in spite of the discussion...... Let's fight on our own first, what's the difference between this and self-destruction of the Great Wall? You must know that even if you don't think about the relationship between flesh and blood, just consider the pros and cons, for the concubine, just four rooms to compete for qi, where can the Xie family be able to serve the court? Otherwise, wouldn't it be good for her to influence the marriage of an eldest princess in the first place, and exchange it with Gaomen? Do you have to get a big house cheaper? ”
She sighed, "I have invited many Xixi Xi every year, and I have been teaching for many years, but I have not seen it clearly as a woman in my son...... I don't even know what to say about these foolish things! ”
Jiang Ai smiled and said: "These ladies are young, maybe they can't think about it, don't you already know it in your heart?" In that case, these things can still be dealt with! ”
"You also look up to me, a huge family, each with its own ideas." Jiang shook his head slightly and said, "Even my own children are not the same heart!" It can only be said that you do your best, this is the prosperity of the family is a plus and a disadvantage, although there are many people, it is inevitable to pull each other's legs! ”
As he was talking, a little maid came over to tell him that the concubine had heard that the Jiang family had arrived, and he had brought the eldest princess of Sui'an to ask for peace.
