Chapter 439: Fighting for a Husband
Although this drama of "two daughters fighting for a husband" does not do Cao Hao's business, Zheng Hu is still standing in the long entourage waiting for Cao Hao and his wife to come out outside the store.
In the end, the two are brothers and sisters connected by blood, even if Yang Mingchang is unrighteous and Bai is ruthless, but Zheng Hu has not said anything bad about Yang Ruixue's sister.
Although he didn't recognize each other, he knew that she was remarrying someone else, and Zheng Hu was also particularly concerned about the situation of his new brother-in-law. Hearing Cao Hao say that Yi Duli was good to Yang Ruixue, and even brought his niece to the capital, he also had joy on his face.
Looking at Zheng Hu and thinking of Zhaojia who brought his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law into the store, Cao Hao was a little uneasy.
It's just that after all, it's the housework of the Yidu family, and Cao Hao can't take the liberty of helping. wanted to tell Zheng Hu directly, but was afraid that he would be reckless and make the situation more and more chaotic.
After thinking for a while, Cao Hao summoned Zhang Yi and asked him to go to the yamen of Taifu Temple to find Yiduli; He also instructed Xiao Man to ask him to find two young men in the dim sum shop, staring at the door of Ruihe Zhai, and immediately reporting if it was wrong.
Chu Yu saw Cao Hao's series of commands, and was puzzled in his heart, and asked, "Eyu, is this...... But is there something wrong? ”
There were many people on the street, and it was inconvenient to speak, so Cao Hao and Chu Yu went to the street in parallel, where the carriage was parked, and said: "The woman in the shop is Yiduli's outer room, and Zhao Jia's family is here, I'm afraid I'm going to come for her." ”
Chu Yu heard it for the first time, and his face showed surprise, and said, "In that case, that little girl is Lord Yi's daughter?" ”
Cao Hao shook his head and said, "It's not biological, it's a stepdaughter." As he spoke, he looked at Zheng Hu and called him over.
Zheng Hu and Wei Hei are now working shifts every day, one with the elder and Cao Hao out, and the other is training in the mansion.
Today, it is just in time for Zheng Hu to be on duty.
According to Cao Hao's meaning, he wanted Zheng Hu to take the martial arts test with Cao Song, because Zheng Hu liked to dance with knives and guns when he was young, and once said that he wanted to be a soldier. However, Zheng Hu stayed in Guangzhou for a few years, which can be regarded as an eye-opener, and he was very disapprehensive to those soldiers who were similar to local ruffians and hooligans, and he had no interest in eating soldiers' meals.
Zheng Hu was originally a few feet away, but when he saw Cao Hao calling him, he strode over.
He has a scar on his face, which was left by a fight in Jiangning City as a teenager, which makes him look a little fierce. But when they get along, they are a good-hearted person. Therefore, Wei Hei also has a bit of a temper with him, and Cao Hao is also close to him in his heart.
"Uncle, what do you call the little one?" Zheng Hu asked quietly.
Cao Hao pointed to Rui Hezhai in front of him and said, "Tiger, that shop may be the Yang family's property, and I just saw the Yang family in it." ”
Zheng Hu grabbed his hair and said in a low voice: "Uncle, this little one knows, and the little one inquired when he first arrived in Beijing." ”
Cao Hao listened, but he was stunned, he really didn't expect Zheng Hu to bother with this sister.
When he came to his senses, Cao Hao said truthfully: "Tiger, the people who just entered the shop are from the Yiergen Jueluo family, and the woman is the main house of Yiduli. ”
Zheng Hu was still puzzled in the first half of the pull, but when he heard the second half of the pull, his eyes widened, and his face was worried.
Chu Yu was a little confused on the side, but it was not easy to interject and ask questions in front of Zheng Hu.
The story of the dispute between wives and concubines is regarded as a joke in the officialdom. For example, who is "depressed by the husband", and the concubine is sold by his wife; Or who spoiled the concubine and killed his wife, lost his conscience, and lost his conscience.
There are also many families with wives and concubines that Cao Hao has seen with his own eyes, such as his own family, Chunwangfu, Pingwangfu, Sun family, etc. It's just that after all, the relationship should be selfish, and it is still a scene of wife and concubine on the surface.
According to the "Law of the Qing Dynasty", the wife is the heroine of the concubine, and she holds the power of life and death in her hands. Whether Zhao Jia's family will hate because of jealousy, no one can say, not to mention that there is a young girl over there.
Before Yi Duli came, Cao Hao didn't want to wait like this, and said to Zheng Hu: "I have already sent someone to inform Yi Duli, if the tiger is not at ease, I will also go to the door of the shop and wait." If you see something wrong...... You're an older brother, so you can still come forward and say a few words. ”
Zheng Huzheng was worried, listened to Cao Hao's words, nodded hurriedly, and said, "Well, the little one will go over and take a look." With that, he turned and walked quickly.
Seeing that Zheng Hu's back was far away, Chu Yu opened his mouth and asked, "E, is the Yang family Zheng Hu's sister?" ”
Cao Hao nodded and said, "Well, they are all from Jiangning." Even my sister and Han Jiang know her. ”
Chu Yu saw Cao Hao frowning, thinking that he was worried about the Yang family, and said: "Don't worry too much, the big family of the Zhaojia family wants to be faced, how can it make trouble in the market?" I heard that Lao Shangshu's tutor is good, so he shouldn't be too embarrassed by the Yang family. ”
Cao Hao listened, nodded, and said, "Such a great kindness!" Yi Duli has had a hard time in the past two years, and there are many people waiting to catch his pigtails. If something happens again because of these troubles, it will reach Yushi's ears, and I'm afraid it will be enough for him to drink a pot. On the Yamen side, my colleagues are quite worry-free, but if they are replaced by someone else, I don't know if they are good or bad. ”
The husband and wife, while talking, looked at the shop, but there was no movement.
After two quarters of an hour, he saw two fast horses rushing out of the inner city.
Because there were many people on the street, the people on the horse shouted vigorously, saying, "Let me, let let, let let hey!" ”
I didn't have time to change the official uniform on my body, it was Yiduli.
Although it was not close, he could be seen panting and dismounting.
Now that the main master has arrived, Cao Hao has no interest in staying any longer, and turned to Chu Yu and said, "Let's go, let Lao Yi toss by himself, don't worry about it!" ”
Chu Yu refused to leave, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Forehead, wait left and right, it's about the child!" ”
It stands to reason that Chu Yu is a wife herself, so she should stand in the position of Zhaojia's and be disgusted with Yang. But just seeing the scene of their mother and daughter relying on each other made her feel a little pity.
Cao Hao saw Chu Yu like this, so he had no choice but to accompany him here.
said that Yi Duli entered the shop with sweat, and he was also a little worried, for fear that Zhao Jia's attack would wronged Yang Ruixue; I was afraid that Yang Ruixue would make a small surname, so I was angry with Zhaojia's family.
When he entered the house, he couldn't help but feel a little stunned.
I saw that in the corner of the hall, Zhao Jiashi was sitting there with a smile, holding a little girl in his hand, and his face was full of intimacy. Yang Ruixue stood on the side, her eyebrows lowered and her eyes were pleasing to her eyes, and her expression was very deferential.
Seeing Yi Duli coming in, Yang Ruixue turned around and looked, while Zhao Jiashi stood up with a smile and said, "It's better to be in a hurry than to be in a hurry, isn't the master busy these days, why are you free?" ”
Yang Ruixue listened, lowered her head, and knew the reason why Yiduli's wife Zhao Jia came to the door. Although she was disdainful in her heart, she also knew that her mother's family was powerful, and it was not for her to offend.
As soon as the Zhao Jia clan entered the house just now, the mother-in-law who followed revealed the identity of the Zhao Jia clan. Seeing that all of them were not good-looking, Yang Ruixue knew that they were prepared.
There were people standing at the entrance of the partiality, and she just wanted to send someone to find Yiduli, and it was not good to be in front of them.
She knew in her heart that in order to be at ease, she would not be able to enter the door of Yiduli's house. If that's the case, the surname of himself and his daughter will be in the hands of the Zhaojia family. As for whether he can control his husband, that's Zhao Jia's own business.
It's just pretending to be submissive, she has been used to coaxing people since she was a child, and she immediately put on a trembling look, and she honestly stood next to Zhaojia's and served tea.
Because of these words, Cao Hao "recuperated", but he set up a good excuse for Yidu. Under the pretext that the yamen had a lot of errands and was busy with entertainment, he rested outside for several nights.
Zhao Jia's family had already heard the news and knew that her husband had an outroom. She didn't pay much attention to it before. Because Iduli has always been romantic, but he is not a person with affection.
Now, Yiduli is returning home later and later, and when he lies on the bed, he doesn't have to say a word, so he falls asleep.
It wasn't until two days ago that a relative's daughter came to visit the door and told her about the relationship between Yidu Lituo and the fact that a little girl was put into the flag in the name of "stepdaughter", that Zhao Jia's family knew that her husband was afraid that he really hurt the one outside.
How many women in this world are not jealous?
This "stepdaughter" has come out, but she is still deaf and blind. Such an insult, how can Zhao Jia's not be annoyed?
Therefore, she asked someone to check the address of Yang's house, but she was empty, and then she looked at the store, but she happened to meet it.
Yang Ruixue stood in front of Zhaojia's for a while, and her heart was also sour. Although she is not as good as the big families in Beijing, she has also been pampered since she was a child, and after marrying into the Bai family, even if her husband is not worried, she is also a grandmother.
Although it is not a fence now, it is also necessary to compromise and be careful.
Thinking like this, Yang Ruixue's eyes couldn't help but turn red, and she looked up at the daughter she was holding in Zhaojia's hand, with a little sadness on her face.
Where can Yi Duli stand this, he took two steps forward, and said to Zhao Jiashi with a smile: "It's a good day, grandma is out shopping?" As he spoke, he lowered his head and said to the little girl, "Yun'er, do you know who this is?" ”
Yun'er raised her head and said timidly: "Mother calls grandma, grandma?" ”
Before Yi Duli could speak, Zhao Jiashi smiled and said to Yun'er: "It's right to call Eniang, you will be my daughter in the future!" ”
In a word, Yang Ruixue on the side was so shocked that his face had changed.
Yun'er is only five years old, and the maids in the family are all Han, and they don't know what "Eniang" means, but the latter sentence is vaguely understood. The little girl turned her head, looked at Yang Ruixue, and whispered, "Mother......"
Yidu immediately saw Yang Ruixue trembling, looking frightened, and his heart was so distressed. However, Zhao Jia's face was full of smiles, and he couldn't protect him directly, so he said: "It's noon, it's weirdly hot, let's go back to the house!" ”
Zhao Jia's family didn't let go of Yun'er, and said with a smile: "Ye Zhen, since you added a sister to me and a girl, why don't you take it home?" Let the relatives know, and say that I am the one who does not tolerate anyone. ”
At this point, Yi Duli wanted to deny it but couldn't, so he said vaguely: "Rui Xue's health is not good, she needs to recuperate, just live outside!" ”
Zhao Jiashi listened and said with some concern: "That is the case, Yun'er should take her back to the house, so that her sister can recuperate with peace of mind." ”
Zhao Jia's words were sincere, Yi Duli didn't know how to refute for a while, so he saw Yang Ruixue take two steps forward and said: "The slave family thanked grandma for worrying about it, but grandma is also a mother, and she knows that the child is the top of her mother's heart." Grandma and peace of mind...... The slave family said that the queen...... In the future, I will be a good student to 'recuperate', and I don't dare to bother Yi Ye easily......" As he spoke, tears had already come down in strings.
After hearing this confession, Zhao Jiashi knew the meaning of her words, and sneered in his heart, and wanted to scare her again.
Yidu stood beside him, but he lowered his face, looking at Zhao Jia's family, his eyes were a little colder.
Zhao Jiashi saw that he was going to protect Yang Ruixue, he was angry and annoyed, but he smiled softly on his face. She let go of Yun'er's hand, leaned over, touched her little face, and said, "Since your aunt is reluctant to let you go, she will first wronged you to live outside, and after a while, E-niang will clean up your house and then take you home." ”
Yun'er took two steps back timidly, hid in Yang Ruixue and stretched out her hand, grabbed her mother's skirt, and looked at everyone with a confused face.
Seeing that Zhao Jia's family let go of Yun'er, Yi Duli's face was better. As for whether or not to take Yun'er back home, he didn't pay attention to it. When Yun'er is older, he always has to be educated, and it is not common to live outside the house.
But it is said that at the end of the street, it is said that the head is full, and it is sunburned on people, which makes people feel a little sleepy.
Cao Hao yawned, a little impatiently waiting. He took out his pocket watch and saw that it was almost 1 p.m. He was about to send someone to Ruihezhai to take a look, when he saw Yiduli and his wife coming out of Ruihezhai side by side, and Yang Ruixue was holding his daughter in his hand and following him off.
I don't know what Yiduli said in front of Zhao Jia, which made Zhao Jia cover his mouth with a handkerchief and laugh. Supported by his mother-in-law, Zhao Jia's got into the carriage.
Yi Duli turned his head and glanced at Yang Ruixue, turned over and got on the horse, and the husband and wife left together......
