The Zhang family decided that if the sister-in-law also had the idea of marriage, then she would definitely support the third room, otherwise even if their long house inherited the title, when the second brother came back and got real power, I am afraid that her status in the mansion would not be guaranteed.

Although there is a mother-in-law pressing on it now, it is okay to hinder filial piety, once the mother-in-law is gone, if the second child is jealous of them, they may not be happy, after all, their lineage and concubine are just superficially peaceful.

Compared with the second room, the third room is much better, at least the third brother has no ambition, and the third brother and sister are also from a low background, so the third room, the younger brother who is close to the family and does not have much danger, is the candidate they want to woo. Sister Zhu in the third room marries well, which is also very beneficial to her family.

"Mother." Seeing the eldest daughter come in, Zhang's eyebrows and eyes were smiling.

"Why didn't you embroider the dowry in the house?" Su Ximei is about to hold a ceremony, and then the wedding date is approaching, so she can't be busy all day.

"I heard that my little aunt is coming back, my mother must be very busy, is there anything I need help with?" In the past few years, the Zhang family has been teaching Su Ximei how to feed the abbot, and Su Ximei is also doing very well, and now she knows that her mother has a lot of things to do here, and Su Ximei is not good at embroidering dowries in the house.

"Don't worry, where do you need your mother, the most important thing for you now is to embroider the dowry, and after the ceremony, my uncle will win the gold list again, and my mother will let you marry beautifully, which is the best."

Zhang looked at this eldest daughter who made her proud, and was very happy, but before getting married, there were some things that she had to say as a mother.

Zhang looked at his daughter's bright little face, and endured the reluctance in his heart, the husband favored the concubine room, and her only son couldn't catch up with the cheap seed in life, if it wasn't for the eldest daughter's struggle, I'm afraid their mother's life would be difficult, although the husband didn't dare to blatantly spoil the concubine and kill his wife, but only he knew what was inside, so Zhang's more and more valued his daughter.

"Sister Mei, my mother wants to tell you that my uncle is extremely good in all aspects, so there will definitely be a bunch of women who will throw themselves on him regardless of shame, you have to remember that you are the wife of the main family, and the eldest daughter of our Annan Hou Mansion.

No matter how many concubines your uncle has in the future, you don't need to care, children are the key to your life. Concubine room, when the uncle is spoiled, you hold it, and when the uncle is tired, you will deal with it, you don't need to be angry with the uncle for a thing, you must be dignified and virtuous, take care of the middle feed, respect the mother-in-law and pity the sister-in-law, and firmly occupy the title of the sister-in-law. ”

Su Ximei didn't speak, she knew that what her mother said was right, but her mother didn't seem to do it, and she resented her father's partiality every day, Aunt Liu and others.

Zhang saw his daughter's doubts, and smiled self-deprecatingly, "Mother just didn't listen to your grandmother's words to suffer a loss, do you really want your father to be more affectionate to Aunt Liu than Jin?" If that's the case, then there will be Aunt Mei, not those three little cheap hooves. ”

Zhang said here with a bitter smile in her heart, it would be good if she could see through this sooner, but it is not too late now, she is the wife of the main family, her daughter is the future Duchess and her son is the heir of this Hou Mansion, in this mansion, she is the final winner, this is enough.

Zhang looked at his daughter's bad face, and although he was distressed, he continued, "But it's also your brother who is not angry, plus the third child from that slut and his trouble, your father has been partial to Aunt Liu's house all these years."

It's funny to say, your father has eaten enough of the loss of the concubine's favor, and he still learns from your grandfather's favor of the concubine, hehe, it's really funny, but it's a pity that although Brother Zhe's qualifications are not good, he is not stupid, and he is the eldest son, and the title can only be your brother's in the future.

Your father is not stupid, my mother's family is not a vegetarian, and now you are about to become the wife of the prince of Dingguo Mansion, so over the years, hasn't your father gradually valued Brother Zhe again?

So, all men care about is fame and fortune in the family, except for the wife, the rest of the women are just spoiled and played, so Sister Mei, remember, you are a wife, you must be virtuous and generous, as long as you give birth to a son-in-law and cultivate it well, then no one can cross you.

As for the concubine, he will be raised by his side after birth, one is to show the bearing of your mother-in-law, the other is not to let the concubine and the biological mother get too close, and most importantly, you must find a way to raise it. "Back then, Zhang's family only cared about jealousy and didn't care about this stubble, so they let the third child be raised by Aunt Liu, and when she wanted to ask for the third child, it was too late, so she gave her son a strong opponent, so her daughter must not follow the path she has walked and suffer the losses she has suffered.

Su Ximei's face turned pale, her girlish feelings, and her future husband is such a heavenly son, Su Ximei is now full of love tied to each other, and now listening to what her mother said about concubines, what concubines, how could she not let Su Ximei enter the ice cave.

"Madam, the second aunt and grandmother are back." While the mother and daughter were talking, the porter came to report.

"Who? Second aunt and grandmother? Why did she come back all of a sudden? Didn't say hello before? Forget it, hurry up and inform your mother, and welcome people in first. Zhang frowned.

The second aunt and grandmother Su Fang in the mouth of the next generation is her husband's sister-in-law, because the aunt is not favored, and she is honest and timid, so although the mother-in-law does not want to see her, she also does not practice her, and marries her to a foreign official.

Could it be that something is going on? Zhang's didn't wrinkle slightly, she didn't like it very much, her daughter is about to marry now, and Zhang's least favorite thing is that there is any accident.

Zhang's family is Mrs. Hou of the Hou Mansion, although the other party is a concubine, but the girl's family is a guest when she marries and returns to her parents' house, so even if Zhang is unwilling, she has to be the first to greet her aunt and grandmother who come back. Just looking at the mother and son wearing linen and filial piety, Zhang's face was very ugly.

"Sister-in-law, woo, my husband is gone, why is my life so bitter, sister-in-law, woo." Su Fang looked at her sister-in-law, and the tears she had been holding back couldn't be stopped any longer, and even the eyes of a son and a daughter beside her were red.

"How so? When did my uncle not come, why didn't anyone tell me, and why did you come back like this? What about the people of the Zhao family? Zhang looked at the three of them, and his face was very ugly. Where did Su Fang and his party go back to their parents' home, they obviously fled and came back.

"Madam, the old lady wants to see the second aunt's family." The maid at the door reported, and Zhang nodded.

"Okay, don't cry yet, let's go to Niangna first, if you are wronged, my Annan Houfu is not a decoration. When I got to my mother, I was talking about it in detail. ”

When the Zhang family and his party arrived at the old lady's residence, the Zhou family and the Jiang family had already arrived, and the Zhou family looked at Su Fang's dismal appearance and pouted, this sister-in-law was Su Rou's echo insect back then, and thought the old lady could value it more? It's just to say an outside official, tsk.

"Meet my mother, this is my daughter's distant brother and sister Yu, quick, brother and sister Yu, I have seen your grandmother." Su Fang has not come back for more than ten years after she got married, which shows that she also resented the old lady for not leaving her in the capital. It's just that now Su Fang has to come back, so she is very small and low.

Because Su Fang and her mother's family are not closely connected, so for so many years, her child is also the first time to meet her mother's family, and now Su Fang regrets it. If she could keep in touch with her mother's family, she would not be bullied like that after her husband's sudden death, sure enough, her mother's family is the foundation for a woman to gain a foothold in her husband's family.

Su Fang's eldest son Zhao Yuan is eleven years old, he looks like an honest and honest young man, a little dark, his appearance is not as good-looking as the Su family, but it is not bad, as for the eldest daughter Zhao Yusheng, she is very soft, she looks very similar to Su Fang, she is nine years old, and she is delicate and weak, which is very pitiful.

Of course, Zhou didn't like Zhao Yu at first sight, she and her daughter were of the same age, and her appearance was not much inferior to her daughter, and the temperament on her body was particularly attractive to men. Sure enough, it was raised by a concubine, and she had a small family spirit.

Jiang Shi has no opinion on Su Fang's mother and son, as for Zhao Yuchang's beauty, Jiang Shi doesn't care even more, but it is Miss Biao, what impact can it have on her daughter, looking at the look in Zhou's eyes, Jiang sighed helplessly, feeling that Zhou's pattern is too small.

Because the situation is special now, it is not the time to give a gift, so the old lady asked directly, "What happened?" Why do you look like this? What about the Zhao family? Didn't send you back? ”

"Mother, woo." Su Fang began to cry when she heard the old lady's question.

"What are you crying about, the child is still there, what is there to say directly, although you are a concubine, you are also a person from our Annan Houfu, you can really be bullied?" It's not that the old lady feels sorry for the concubine, but if the concubine is bullied, it will be her face in the face of the Annan Houfu.

"Mother, my husband was sick, and he died in a few days, and he didn't explain anything, the Zhao family used the excuse that my brother was young and couldn't take care of things, so they robbed my husband's property and my dowry, and my mother-in-law was also a partial brother-in-law, and she didn't help us at all, woo, mother, they even had to put us under house arrest, and I escaped with the child with the help of the nurse."

Su Fang cried so miserably, the old lady trembled angrily, a small Zhao family dared to bully them like this Annan Houfu, who gave them the guts?

"If you want me to say, sister-in-law, you too, if you don't get married, you won't contact your family, so that the Zhao family thinks that you have broken off your relationship with your family, how dare they bully you like this? Although you are a concubine, you are also a concubine of the Hou Mansion, where can a small five-grade official be bullied?

Hey, it's also sister-in-law, you are acting inappropriately, don't talk about the Zhao family, even I thought you were going to break off your relationship with your mother's family? Still wondering where is it that our Su family is sorry for you to let you get married, and there is no news? ”

Zhou listened to Su Fang's words, and sneered in his heart, so the words were like knives, and Su Fang's face was snow-white, and the whole person was shaky.
