From the legends to the princes of the court, most people think that the combination of Fan Jin and Zhang Shunqing belongs to the marriage and cannot be regarded as marriage. But for both parties, both parties believe that this is a normal marriage, and Zhang Shunqing is still married to the Fan family.

According to the customs of Jingshi, the woman's relatives are called "bowing their heads to the family", symbolizing the status gap between men and women in marriage. In the traditional thinking of the world, women are considered to be inferior to men, and in the marriage relationship, it is also believed that the wife is in a weak position, even if she is a famous family or a daughter-in-law, she will become the daughter-in-law of someone else's family when she marries into someone else's family, and she must be controlled by her mother-in-law. In ancient legends, drunken beating of the golden branch can derive a good story of a monarch and a minister, who is not dumb or deaf and is not a Weng, and he never has this opportunity when he is drunk and beats a horse.

Judging from the folk atmosphere of the Ming Dynasty and the status of men and women, the two parties in this marriage should be Zhang Shunqing, who is the wife, needs to bow low and be small, but from the actual situation, the Fan family, as the husband's family, is more cautious. Although Zhang Shunqing's performance in the Fan family is still mild, and he has not put on the power of the prime minister's daughter, for the Fan family, he has already felt the huge pressure brought by the difference in class.

As the nominal head of the family, Fan's mother is also worried about her life, for fear of angering this beautiful and wealthy girl by saying the wrong thing in front of her prospective daughter-in-law, and she doesn't dare to let it go at all as for the evil mother-in-law in the countryside to make things difficult for her daughter-in-law.

Seeing that the big wedding was just around the corner, just as the criminal had reached the autumn decision, Fan's mother, who had changed into a life robe early, looked at herself in the mirror, and her mood was both joy and apprehension. Her eyesight has deteriorated severely, and the light is dim because it is too late, and her vision is a little blurry, so she has to ask Sister Hu and Fan Jin, who are waiting by her side.

"Look, can I do this? I always feel that something is wrong. When Jin Tsai was not developed, I deliberately made a new set of clothes, just to wear it when I drank my daughter-in-law's tea one day, when Jin Tsai was still eight years old, right? Don't look at us at that time, but the materials and workmanship of the clothes are not bad. The cloth is woven by herself, and the clothes are made by your sixth aunt, and her craftsmanship is praised by everyone in the village, and the clothes are naturally very good. Later, when the famine occurred, the family couldn't survive, so he sent his clothes to the pawnshop, and then he couldn't find the pawn ticket, and he couldn't redeem it if he wanted to...... It would be nice if that dress was here, just in time for tomorrow to wear it. I, a farmer, was born without wearing official clothes, how ugly these clothes look. ”

Fan Jin smiled beside him: "Mother, how can you be ugly?" This dress fits well and is magnificent, and when the sedan chair passes the door tomorrow, the head of the hall will kneel down to salute you, and you are wearing this dress just right. ”

"Suitable?"

Fan Mu glanced at the mirror unconfidently, and then at Fan Jin. "Is this appropriate for me, a country woman?"

"What's out of place? The son went out so hard just so that he wouldn't go back in this life. If you return to your hometown, our parents in the South China Sea will also be respectful to you, and you will have to be famous and famous if you have something to see, and it depends on your patience to see him. This garment is the dignity you deserve. Although the identity of the daughter of the Zhang family is extraordinary, she is always your daughter-in-law, and she can be treated how she should be treated. Besides, Shun Qing always comes to the house these days, isn't she very respectful to you? What are you afraid of what she will do? ”

Mother Fan sighed, and as soon as her hand was stretched out, Sister Hu had already neatly handed over the hookah. "If you want to be respectful, the eldest lady is very respectful to me, an old woman in the countryside, so she almost calls me Auntie directly. Compared with the status of the two families, people can be said to be very generous to me, and if I say that she is not good, then I have no conscience. But my mother will tell you the truth, from the first day she came, my mother was afraid. ”

There was silence in the room, and after a while, Fan's mother continued: "There is nothing wrong with her, she is beautiful, her family is good, and she can run the family business. With such internal help, the family will prosper. But the more she is like this, the more scared she becomes, afraid that my son will be angry with her, and afraid that my son will eat her burden. Our farmers don't understand the truth, they only know that no matter how beautiful the flowers are, there is a day of thanks. The higher you stand, the harder you fall. My mother was afraid that one day this big house would have good clothes, and so many people and livestock would be gone, just like a dream, and as soon as she woke up, she went back to the countryside to farm and live a hard life. I'm not afraid that you will laugh at me, my mother can't go back now, and I can't live the days of digging in the soil anymore. ”

Fan Jin said: "Although my mother can rest assured, my son can't go back either, it's better to kill me than to live that kind of life." Therefore, I will definitely not let our family suffer poverty and sin again, and we will never go back to suffer again in this life! ”

Fan Mu nodded and laughed twice, "When people are old, they are confused, how can they talk about these things on the big day." Since you say that my clothes are beautiful, then I will wear them. Eldest sister, help me go to the Buddha Hall, I have to burn incense for Jinzai's father, everyone will have a banquet tomorrow, and he can't be wronged. After a few days, I will find a happy lady to mention to her, cook a few dishes at home, and give you a name. It's not easy for you at home all these years, and you can't be aggrieved. ”

"Auntie...... I'm not aggrieved. Sister Hu lowered her head and carefully helped Mother Fan, her nose was sour, and tears seemed to flow out. Her appearance is already very different from Fan Zhuangshi, the once rotten red corners of her eyes and the sores on her legs have been treated under the hands of famous doctors, her nutrition can keep up, her hair is like ink, her complexion is ruddy, and the woman's plumpness, now Sister Hu is in a place like Fanzhuang, which is enough to be called a goddess, but she is not outstanding in Beijing.

Don't say that it is better than Zhang Shunqing, even the girls around Zhang Shunqing are not as good. And she has never learned to dress up, she is still the same as when she was in Fan Zhuang, and the changes in her life have little impact on her, and she secretly saves her monthly money. I have heard too many stories from old people who suddenly lost their lives and had no food and clothing, and if there is such a sum of money, it can save lives.

Listening to Mother Fan's words, Sister Hu kept reminding herself that she couldn't cry, and if she cried on a happy day, she would lose Brother Jin's interest, and he would be angry. From the time when I entered the brother examination to become famous, I knew that there would be such a day. How can the butcher's daughter marry the eldest master, this is impossible. As long as you are good at entering the brother, you should be happy. What's more, Miss Zhang was very kind to herself, helped her cure her illness, and wrote a letter to her hometown, asking the Guangdong government to take care of her father. Such a beautiful woman, so beautiful that she didn't dare to look at it directly, and Brother Jin were a natural pair, I should be happy for them, why do I want to cry...... It's too bad for me.

The scenes of life in the countryside keep flashing in my mind. The rural scholars who can't plow the fields so far, the Wenqu stars who can read letters and know how to break sentences, and some nerds who don't dare to fight with others have defeated the iron-headed baby of the Hong family...... Several images appear in the mind, but they do not coincide.

Sister Hu always felt that her brother Jin was not alone, and now this brother Jin, who is proud to be a big man, is different from the boy who is willing to pay for him. The body is still the same body, but there is always something different in the soul.

Of course, she could only keep this in her heart and not say it. I have given everything to him, and as long as he is good, he will be happy. No matter what kind of life you live in the future, you will admit it. With or without a name, she doesn't care. Turning around, she stole a glance at Fan Jin, who nodded at her, and Sister Hu's heart felt extremely satisfied. Even if you know that this man is going to hug another woman later, as long as you are willing to look at her, it is enough.

When his mother left the room, Fan Jin followed him out of the house and looked up at the sky. The bright moon was in the sky, the moonlight was like washing, and under the bright moon, a figure appeared on the roof of Fan's house, sitting on his knees, holding something in his hand, and sending it to his mouth from time to time. Fan Jin shook his head, sighed in a low voice, and then took a few steps back, lifted the hem of his clothes, accelerated and jumped forward, he has never stopped practicing martial arts for two years, plus Feng Mingqi, a big man in the world, can now be regarded as a first-class master if he enters the rivers and lakes, and this kind of thing is difficult for him.

The night breeze sent a strong aroma of wine, and the beautiful woman in plain clothes drank to the moon, humming a strange tune gently in her mouth, and listened carefully, it was "when I went to Mo on the flowers like brocade, today the willows on the floor are green and ......".

Because Fan Jin likes Peking Opera, the women in the family are more or less learning Peking Opera singing in order to please him or be influenced by him. Xue Wu has the best qualifications, and he already has a good way of singing Tsing Yi; Sister Hu is shy, and she didn't dare to speak in front of anyone when she killed her, and the only one who dared to sing but had a strong Cantonese accent and was a little ridiculous was Liang Pandi.

Fan Jin smiled: "Where did this little lady come from?" If you don't go home so late, is it lonely and needs someone to accompany you? ”

An empty wine jug that had been drunk a long time ago was thrown over, and was caught by Fan Jin casually, Liang Pandi said with a tiger face: "Decrepit boy, you are all officials, and you still speak so openly, so that others will hear that you are a frivolous prodigal son and have a bad reputation for you." Don't think that if you want to be the prime minister's son-in-law, I won't dare to beat you, dare to mess around, beware of being beaten. ”

Fan Jin sat beside Liang Pandi with a smile and stretched out his hand to put his hand on her shoulder, "In the past, I didn't dare to mess around without fame, but now I have an official body, if I don't dare to mediate a people's girl, this official will be in vain." The third sister will beat me if she wants to, no matter what time it is, you are my third sister, and I am your son. ”

"Don't talk nonsense, if you become a kiss, you are someone else's, I don't dare to grab a man with the eldest lady. If she's angry, she's going to kill me. She leaned her head on Fan Jin's shoulder, poured half a pot of wine mouth-to-mouth, and handed the wine jug to Fan Jin, seeing that he was looking for the place where his lips had just touched and poured the rest of the wine mouth-to-mouth, before saying, "Jinzai...... Kyoshi is not good at all, I am homesick. I can't see my hometown here, and I don't feel sure. Let me go, take a look at Tianwang Mountain, look at the sea, and if you miss me, go to Guangdong to find my ....... ”

"Dream! You are my person, I have the final say where you go. "Fan Jin, who has always been obedient in front of Liang Pandi, rarely changed his face." Did Zhang Shunqing bully you? Forcing you to leave? I heard that you drank Xue Wuguo in the afternoon, first talked about the hand and then competed in martial arts, and now you are making a fuss about leaving, what kind of madness! ”

"It's nothing, Xue Wu's kung fu is better than mine, she is also more beautiful than me, and she is younger than me, it is enough for her to protect you by your side, I am useless. Zhang Shunqing didn't bully me, she didn't need to bully me, some people worked for her, and they couldn't dirty their hands. That woman is so much better than me. Since a year ago, she has been quietly buying real estate, which is frighteningly expensive, and many people have no place to live and can only sleep on the streets. Even if they are officials, most of them rent houses. There is a house in Beijing, which is equivalent to a hen that lays golden eggs, and few people are willing to make a move. If it weren't for the Prime Minister's Fortune and the Prime Minister's relationship, it would be impossible to buy all the houses on this street. I originally thought that she was for rent, but I didn't expect that it was for the dowry, a whole street of dowry...... Just rush this one, who dares to say a word in front of her eyes. ”

"I'll talk to her, if she dares to bully you, I won't agree......"

"You dare!" Liang Pandi's eyes also widened, just like the eldest sister reprimanded the younger brother: "Your career has just improved a little, and your aunt has just had a good life in a few days, so you are not allowed to destroy your future for the sake of me, an old woman!" If you dare to make housework with Miss Zhang, you are forcing me to die! Besides, she didn't do anything to me, why are you angry with others? Can I be careful myself? I don't want to watch my sweetheart marry other women, okay? I'm tired of playing with your little white face, okay? Everyone has no reputation, the old lady and the old cow eat tender grass, and I just want to play a reader, but now I am tired of playing. The Zhang family has so many mothers-in-law, from housekeepers to maids, and even the guards have a Xue Wu, why are you pulling me in? Everyone, sons and daughters of the rivers and lakes, don't be so mother-in-law, the old lady will not be responsible for you, farewell! ”

Liang Pandi stood up, but was immediately held tightly by Fan Jin. She said impatiently: "Let it go! You're going to get married tomorrow, what's the matter with other women today, not to mention that I'm still a housekeeper, if people know, you still want to be famous. ”

The man's hand did not let go, but clenched it tighter, and his tone was low but powerful. "Third sister, you're right. Zhang Shunqing looks like a fairy, Xue Wu is strong in martial arts, even if she is a housekeeper and manages money, the Zhang family also has a woman who is proficient in arithmetic and good at managing the industry, which is enough to take on this role. If I ask for a beauty, a fist, or a housekeeper, there can be substitutes. ”

"Then you still won't let go?" The woman's voice choked.

"Because if I let go, I will lose my unique third sister and lose the most important part of my heart. I want you just because I love you, it has nothing to do with your talents, I don't need you to do anything, as long as you are by my side. I'm a very reasonable person, if the woman around me wants to leave, I won't force her, but you are an exception, you are already my person, and you can't leave if you want to. ”

Fan Jin suddenly exerted force, and the huge power of the Yi Jin Jing was difficult for even Liang Pandi to stumble, and his feet slipped and he had already fallen into Fan Jin's arms. She whispered, "Decrepit boy, do you?" ”

"As I just said, if you want to rob people's girls, you will naturally do what you say! Besides, the owner of the house makes his own housekeeper and his wife call his own chicken and eat his own rice, which is justified! You can't run away tonight. ”

Under the moonlight, the woman struggled violently in the man's arms and kicked and beaten, but she couldn't break free from the man's divine power. The two fought all the way from the roof to the bedroom, until the clothes on their bodies fell to the ground and rolled into a ball, the woman still did not give up, and the silver ring engraved with the man's name shimmered under the lamp, recording the love that belonged to the two. When resistance turned into pandering, and struggle turned into the most primitive struggle, Liang Pandi suddenly turned against the customer, hugged Fan Jin tightly and said: "Don't let go, don't let go in this life...... I am yours, and you are mine, and you must not forget me. ”
