Chapter 623 - Breaking the Face with a Point
In the past, when she was in Huizhou Mansion, Xiaobei also followed Ye Mingyue to the homes of many famous families, and saw many beautiful ladies, and later when her identity changed, she also attracted a lot of scrutiny and discussions, but she has always been very arrogant and doesn't care about people's words, let alone those dazzling tempers, so she still loves what. Therefore, now when she heard that Wang Chonggu's daughter-in-law, that is, Wang Qian's wife Yang, wanted to see her, she was just surprised, but Shi Yuanchun frowned.
"Needless to say, it's the sister-in-law again. Just go, are you afraid that they won't make it? ”
Shi Yuanchun said this in his mouth, but when he got up and prepared to go over with Xiaobei, he couldn't help but mention two more sentences about the situation of the Wang family to her. Just a few years ago, there were the so-called Puzhou Three Heroes in the court, Yang Bo was the first, Wang Chonggu was second, and then it was Zhang Siwei's turn. Yang Bo's son Yang Junyan married Wang Chonggu's daughter, Zhang Siwei was Wang Chonggu's nephew, and Wang Chonggu's son Wang Qian married Yang Chonggu's niece Yang. As a mother-in-law, Yang listens to her father-in-law's marriage for her son, as if she is a kind woman who doesn't have much idea.
And Xiaobei remembered that Shi Yuanchun's concubine, that is, the eldest granddaughter-in-law of the Wang family, Ge Shi, was the granddaughter of Shi Ge Shouli, the Zuodu Imperial Emperor who was making trouble in the Metropolitan Procuratorate. Although Wang Fulin did not say what the turmoil after returning to Beijing had anything to do with the biggest head of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Xiaobei could certainly sense that Wang Fulin did not have a good impression of the overly upright Ge Shouli.
Therefore, when I came to the big upper room in the third courtyard of the East Road, I saw two dark green girls standing there at the door. She suddenly only felt Shi Yuanchun pull her hand. Then he walked inside like a close friend in an unmarried boudoir. She was caught off guard for a while, and she was a little stunned. It wasn't until he entered the door that the girls on both sides smiled and called Grandma Wang, Grandma Wang, that she suddenly came back to her senses, and after crossing the threshold, he saw clearly that a woman of thirty-five or sixteen was sitting with a smile in the main hall, and a young woman of the same age as Shi Yuanchun stood on the side, and there were three other people sitting on the chairs around her. All of them were married young women with buns.
No one thought that Shi Yuanchun would bring Xiaobei into the house like this, Ge Shi was stunned for a moment, and then he smiled and said: "My brother and sister and Grandma Wang are really good friends, no wonder they did a big business together when they were still in the boudoir." ”
Shi Yuanchun took Xiaobei to see his mother-in-law Yang first, and then said casually: "If it weren't for Sister Mingyue and Xiaobei, my sister and I wouldn't have mixed in the famous building in Hangzhou today, and now it is the most famous restaurant on the edge of the West Lake." I still remember Sister Mingyue persuaded my father to let our sister join the shares, with the little money we have dispensable, but we can make people live a life of relying on hard work to earn food and clothing and even get rich, why not? ”
"Sister Shi said this restaurant. I've also heard that it's not an exaggeration to say that today's Louwailou is a daily progress. The little money you invested at the beginning is now a big profit of dozens or hundreds of times in a blink of an eye, right? ”
Finding that Ge Shi and the young woman sitting on the first chair at the bottom of the first chair picked thorns one after another, Xiaobei realized that Shi Yuanchun deliberately picked out the old things because it was a well-known secret for a long time, and it was eye-catching, so he immediately took over the conversation for Shi Yuanchun: "The old man Lin in the building outside the building has good cooking skills, and he is diligent and diligent. However, it is really an exaggeration to make money every day, and the dividends we get every year are only one or two thousand. ”
As soon as these words came out, Xiaobei saw a group of people with different expressions. There is no mother-in-law above, and Yang, who is in charge of housework as a daughter-in-law, has been smiling and silent, but Ge has already squeezed the handkerchief, and as for the three guests, their expressions are really reluctant. Wang Fulin once mentioned Ge Shouli's incorruptibility, as the granddaughter of this kind of family, naturally there is not much to dowry, but it is a wealthy Jin merchant like Wang Chonggu, who is rich and rich, and as time goes by, Qing High School will inevitably be a little more extreme. And the elders are like-minded, and the juniors will intersect, and among the beautiful handkerchiefs of Ge's family, people who are sexually similar should be the majority.
Sure enough, she soon heard a chuckle: "Grandma Wang, one or two thousand pieces of silver is enough for dozens of poor families to live for a lifetime." Since you are helping people, why not help to the end, since you were willing to take out dozens of taels of silver, isn't it just right to give it to others as capital? ”
"Although I am not from Huizhou, but I have been in Huizhou for a long time, and I am inevitably contaminated with a bit of vulgarity. I think you are all from a scholarly family, and you don't know the truth of the promotion of rice and hatred among the small people. What's more, it is better to teach people to fish than to teach people to fish, the building outside the building can have today, maybe others see, we seem to be just out of silver, in fact, whether it is renovation, management, or elegant calligraphy and painting, we have not worked hard. Just like the imperial examination, some people only see the temporary scenery of others, but they do not see the hard work of the ten years of cold window. ”
Xiaobei suddenly turned the topic to the imperial examination, and the room was quiet for a moment, and even Ge Shi, who was originally unconvinced and wanted to sneer at each other, was speechless. After all, even the Yang family on the main throne, her husband Wang Qian is still just a lifter, and he has not yet been admitted to the Jinshi, not to mention others, and there are even people's husbands who are just showing off their talents. On the road to Kechang, even if there is a background in the family, they have to fight for talent, hard work, and chance, and from this point of view, they can only be jealous of Xiaobei's good luck.
Before the husband became a jinshi in less than twenty, and in a few years, the husband will be able to seal the people! After all, civilian officials are not like military generals, and it is impossible to ascend to the sky in one step.
Shi Yuanchun was just angry that Ge's wrapped the gun and clamped the stick, so he deliberately explained the original incident, but he didn't want Xiaobei to directly block the two pickers for himself, and then turned the topic to the field. Knowing that Wang Fulin, an eighteen-year-old top three-class legend, could deter others for a while, she didn't intend to embarrass her mother-in-law too much, so she immediately cleverly changed the topic and said some seasonal gossip, after all, this Mid-Autumn Festival is coming. However. Of course, she has a heart for a turn. But he couldn't resist the three handkerchiefs on Ge's side. Both of them are the daughters of the imperial history from the Imperial Inspectorate, and they always try to overwhelm her and Xiaobei, coming and going, which suddenly makes her hold her stomach.
At this moment, a voice suddenly came from outside the curtain: "Grandma Wang, tell your girl that she has an urgent matter to see." ”
Xiaobei raised his eyebrows, and the Yang family on the main throne had always smiled and looked at the little daughters-in-law, but at this moment, they reacted faster than anyone else: "Let her come in." ”
Bizhu hurried into the house. Facing a large number of inquiring eyes, he bowed his head and bowed, and then walked quickly to Xiaobei's side and whispered a few words quickly. Before he finished listening, Xiaobei shouted angrily: "Is there no royal law? How can there be such a shameless rat! ”
Hearing this, Ge Shi couldn't help but have a flickering eye, and immediately asked with a smile: "Grandma Wang, but what happened at home?" ”
"There is concern about labor, but the family is very peaceful." Seeing that everyone's eyes were focused on him, Xiaobei simply stood up and said lightly. "But it's Jingshi who just had a strange story. Daxing County ordered Yang County Zun to send people to the Imperial Procuratorate to try the imperial history Wang Shifang's house, saying that a woman accused him of sleeping in flowers and willows during the examination last year. That's it, at most it's just a ridiculous crime, but he shouldn't have deceived other people's women's private rooms and lied that he was my father-in-law after leaving! If it weren't for the woman who found the article he left behind and compared it with the one she had kept, I was afraid that my father-in-law would have a stigma for no reason! ”
When she heard the first half, Ge's face changed, and when she heard the second half, she couldn't help but be shocked and angry. Although the person mentioned by Xiaobei was neither her husband nor her brother, and he had little to do with the Ge family, the three words of the Metropolitan Procuratorate touched her sensitive nerves. And at this moment, an extremely sharp voice came from below.
"Nonsense, you're a bloody squirt!"
"Why is Feng ** so excited?" Shi Yuanchun frowned, and immediately asked Bizhu, "Is it possible that the Daxing County Ya sent a catcher to arrest people?" ”
Xiaobei also glanced at the woman with some suspicion: "It is said that Shuntianfu went to the door of the Wang family to read the statement in public, and asked the royal servant to go to the county office to explain the matter clearly, otherwise Yang Xianzun will play according to the facts." ”
Hearing this, the woman sitting at the end finally changed her expression, and her body shook violently, almost unable to sit still, but she could no longer speak. Seeing this situation, of course Xiaobei would not continue to stay at the Wang family, and said goodbye to the Yang family apologetically, and after the Yang family squeezed out a smile, he asked Shi Yuanchun to send people out. And as soon as they left, Ge Shi immediately stepped forward to support the woman who had just questioned, and whispered comfortingly: "The matter has not been skimmed yet, you must not take it seriously, it must be a villain slander......"
"Yes, definitely, definitely." The woman chattered nervously, and then said with a sad face, "Wang Shifang is very appreciated by his father, and he is about to marry my sister!" ”
And when Shi Yuanchun and Xiaobei walked all the way out, Xiaobei suddenly said softly: "Don't worry about the outside affairs in the future, just make it clear to your family if you have anything to say." As for your sister-in-law, if she still covets your money, you can simply take it out and give it to your mother-in-law, anyway, the Wang family has money, and they will not swallow you. ”
Shi Yuanchun had already faintly felt some kind of crisis, which was not haunting her, but seemed to be haunting between the two families. When she was in the main hall just now, she vaguely felt that although her mother-in-law Yang had been saying little, she seemed to be biased towards the sister-in-law Ge's people, in other words, what she hoped was to win over the speaker. Otherwise, why did she allow Ge Shi to ask those former handkerchiefs to hand over when she invited Xiaobei? At this moment, she couldn't help but hold Xiaobei's hand tightly, and her voice was a little more confused for the first time.
"Xiaobei, if it ...... in the future"
"What kind of future, Wang Fulin, that guy hasn't become an official yet, he put down his cruel words in front of the eunuch Zhang Gonggong in front of the celebrant and the eunuch Bingpen, even if he is an official, he will never go to the Metropolitan Procuratorate! And your father-in-law is still the secretary of the Criminal Department, and he was brilliant at the beginning. Xiaobei smiled and patted Shi Yuanchun's hand back, and then blinked, "Don't worry, when my sister enters Beijing, the four of us will still have a chance to get together!" ”
said so in his mouth, but when he went out and shook Shi Yuanchun's hand tightly again, and finally got into the sedan chair, Xiaobei bit his lip all of a sudden.
One of the cruelest things in the world is that the sisters who used to be good sisters had to become strangers because of their respective in-laws!
