Chapter 32: A Strong Man Breaks His Wrist

The quarrel between husband and wife is just a trivial matter, in the final analysis, it is a matter of face, if it is not white, the evening will naturally be smooth, close the door, and there is nothing bad to say about the two of them. ^^

But if outsiders from his mother's family come to help, not to persuade peace, but to blame his son-in-law, then a small thing will become a big thing, of course Yang Xuangan is not a stunned person, he will admit his mistake if he lowers his head and is scolded for two sentences.

Yang Xuangan is the secretary of the Ministry of Rites of the Dynasty, Tai Lieutenant, with a high position and profound qualifications, he has already expressed his apologies, if Zheng Shanyuan can take advantage of the situation, and persuade him again, and say that Mrs. Zheng is not, then this contradiction will be resolved.

If in the Yang Su period, Zheng Shanyuan must have persuaded peace and cooperated with the Yang family to scold his sister, but now it is different, the Zheng family is revived, the Yang family is declining, Yang Xuangan actually dares to kill his wife with a sword, the Zheng family can no longer tolerate it, in their opinion, Yang Xuangan killed his wife with a sword as the head of the family, and he killed not his wife, but the face of the Zheng family.

Zheng Shan was willing to return the money and food to Yang Xuangan, and his tone immediately became tough, "Today's matter, the Yang family must give an explanation, otherwise, the Zheng family will never give up!" ”

Yang Xuan felt Zheng Shanyuan's hostility, and he was also annoyed in his heart, and said coldly, "This is the Yang family's family matter, what does it have to do with the Zheng family?" ”{

"What do you have to do with the Zheng family? Hum! ”

Zheng Shanyuan snorted heavily and said: "Back then, my aunt married into the Yang family, endured humiliation, but was forced to die in the end, and my sister married into the Yang family. ”

Zheng Shanyuan's aunt is Yang Xuangan's biological mother Zheng, because of the quarrel between husband and wife, Zheng reported Yang Su's gaffe to the emperor, which annoyed Yang Su, although he did not divorce his wife, but completely snubbed her, and died of illness two years later, Yang Su married He Ruoyun Niang.

This hatred of the Zheng family has always been remembered, and now it has been revealed that Yang Xuangan killed his wife, new hatred and old hatred, and the Zheng family wants to settle it together.

"It's just nonsense, reversing black and white!"

Yang Xuan couldn't bear it anymore, so he picked up the jade card and knocked it twice on the table, and said angrily: "If it weren't for her generosity to the Yang family to give it to the Zheng family, if it weren't for her arbitrary behavior, breaking the rules of the Yang family, and causing the internal contradictions of the Yang family to worsen, would I scold her?" I scolded her twice, and she ran to her mother's house to move the rescuers, and asked her mother's family to interfere in the internal affairs of the Yang family. ”

Yang Xuangan stood up and walked out, "Send off guests!" ”

Zheng Shanyuan was so angry that he trembled, he stared at Yang Xuangan's back and gritted his teeth and said, "I want to go to the Holy Lord to sue you."

At night, in Yang Shen's room, Yang Xuangan convened a meeting of the ** room concubines at home, Yang Yue's son Yang Xuanting, Yang Shen's son Xuanjing, Xuansheng Yang Su's fifth brother Yang Yue's three sons Hongli, Hongwen, Hongwu, and Yang Su's father's sons Wensi and Wenji.

The Yang family is a big family, only Yang Su's grandfather Yang Huo has more than 30 rooms, more than 100 rooms, the son-in-law is an official in the court, the local or the army, and the concubine is engaged in agriculture and business, and there are also military officials, and most of them are in Hongnong's hometown, living in the capital Yang Mansion, mainly the children of Yang Su's seven brothers, and a few father-in-law families who have a good relationship with him.

In this way, the children living in Yang Mansion also have more than 20 families and more than 50 families, with two or three hundred children and grandchildren.

Due to the intensification of family conflicts, Yang Xuangan's position as the head of the family is in jeopardy, which has seriously affected the big things he is planning, and the murder of his wife caused the Zheng family to come to the door to denounce him, Yang Xuangan found an excuse He resolutely made a major decision after careful consideration, 'divorce his wife for prestige,'

Yang Xuangan slowly said to the concubines: "Everyone, I have not been in the capital for nine months, there are many major events in the family, and many conflicts are caused by the willfulness and recklessness of my wife Zheng, as the head of the family, I have a certain responsibility, in order to give an explanation to the family, I have decided to divorce my wife......"

Yang Xuangan's decision to divorce his wife caused an uproar among his sisters-in-law, and Yang Xuan said anxiously: "Big brother, although my sister-in-law is unfair, but she has been with her eldest brother for 30 years after all, how can she say that she will take a break, and besides, the money and food she gave to the Zheng family, hasn't the Zheng family already returned it?" Just as she lent it to the Zheng family without authorization, I think it is enough to cancel her financial rights, and it would be too serious to divorce her wife. ”

Although all the sisters-in-law were dissatisfied with Mrs. Zheng, if it really came to the step of divorce from his wife, everyone also felt that it was a bit serious, and they persuaded Yang Xuangan, and Yang Shen also persuaded: "Xuangan, no matter how much you have to think about Jun'er and Rong'er, in the seven outs, I think the crime of theft is a bit heavy, at most it is jealousy, but didn't she also let you marry a concubine!" I think it's okay to let her apologize and stop managing her finances. ”

Yang Xuangan shook his head and said: "I divorced my wife not because of the seven outs, but because the Zheng family deceived people too much, this afternoon, Zheng Shanyuan came to me, he did not come to be a peacemaker, but asked my Yang family to publicly apologize to the Zheng family, and including my mother Zheng, he also thought that he was forced to death by my father, so that I couldn't bear it, if I took her back, it means that the Yang family succumbed to the threat of the Zheng family, as the head of the family, I must have a clear attitude towards outsiders, and I must not be weak, I have no intention of persuading the family again." ”

Yang Shen sighed in his heart, he knew what Yang Xuangan was for, in order to repair his prestige, gather the strength of the family, and prepare for the upcoming uprising, his nephew's attitude was so firm and duty-bound, as an uncle, how could he not support it?

Yang Shen said to everyone: "Everyone should see the determination and attitude of the head of the family, this is the demeanor of the head of the Yang family, selfless with an iron face, no favoritism, from now on, I will not allow anyone to mention the separation of the family, and then mention the replacement of the head of the family, if anyone dares to mention it again, it will be punished for the offense in the clan rules!" ”

Yang Xuanting immediately said: "I fully support the head of the family, and I hope that the head of the family can lead the Yang family to rejuvenation!" ”

Everyone expressed their support, Yang Xuangan waved his hand, and said to everyone: "I still have two things to say, the first is the financial power of the Yang Mansion, I suggest that the financial power be given to the second uncle, and the second uncle will control the Yang family's money and grain." ”

Yang Shen smiled. At a glance, his nephew was so filial that he was very moved, and he hurriedly excused himself and said, "I'm so old, how can I be in charge of financial power?" Let you young people do it, I can't! "Folded MB

Yang Xuangan smiled, "The chief manager of the accounting office is responsible for the specific accounting, and the second uncle just says that it is not okay, it is easy, and the second uncle should not postpone it." ”

"Alright! Then I will reluctantly make it difficult, and I will serve the family again. ”

Yang Xuanting was slightly disappointed in his heart, he thought that the financial power belonged to him, but he didn't expect to transfer it to the second uncle, and he also knew that this was the eldest brother who was trying to win the second uncle's heart.

Yang Xuangan said: "There is a second thing, that is, the equality of the concubines, I talked with Wan Shi in Zhuo County, and I also understand a little bit of the situation, in fact, the main reason is that the price of rice is high now, and the houses have been poor for a long time, which is unbearable, which has caused their dissatisfaction, inside and outside the court, all families have no so-called equality of concubines, I believe that the Yang family will not have it, to solve this problem, we still have to start with money and grain, I mean, the houses are now the same as the monthly and annual routines, but add a job salary to them, what does it mean?" That is, according to what they are doing now, plus a monthly salary of the big treasurer, the man in charge of the manor will take the money of the big ministry, and the person in charge of the shop will take the money of the big treasurer, and those who are idle will not have a penny, and in addition, every family regardless of their grandchildren, will be subsidized according to the old people and children they support, and the concubines will live a comfortable life, and they will no longer be cast, as for the housing and other rights to remove the family, they will maintain the existing one, what do you think? ”

Yang Shen first said: "I support the plan of the head of the family, now the concubines are making a lot of trouble, and they must give them a little concession, but if they really want to achieve equality, it is impossible, I believe they also understand that the most suitable salary is used, and more work is more, and everyone has nothing to say, do you have any objections?" ”

Yang Shen's preemptive statement made the sons-in-law have nothing to say, the key is that Yang Xuangan's plan did not harm their interests, nor did it break the rules of the family, raising the young and giving subsidies to the elderly, and the tyranny can be enjoyed, almost every family has children, so everyone will increase their income, why not?

Yang Xuan felt that everyone had no objection, so he said categorically: "Then it is decided, it will be announced in the family tonight, and those who dare to make trouble will cancel all the money and food supplies and drive them out of the Yang Mansion!" ”

Yang Xuangan solved the discord within the family with vigorous and resolute means, he turned around to find his son again, in the room, the father and son sat opposite each other, Yang Jun said coldly: "Does father really want to divorce his mother?" ”

Yang Xuan snorted disdainfully: "Did I say I wanted to divorce her?" ”

"But my father has already expressed his position at the clan meeting, is my father hiding from the world and deceiving the family? How is that, once the clan sees through, it will have a great impact on the father's reputation. ”

"I know this, that's why I came to you, you go to the Zheng family and tell your mother in private, I was forced to announce this, but I won't divorce her, she doesn't need to sign, and the letter of release won't take effect, let her wait with peace of mind, in a few years, I will remarry, she is still my Yang Xuangan's wife."

Only then did Yang Jun understand that his father was using a fake wife, and he was silent for a moment and said, "Even if this is the case, has my father considered my mother's feelings?" "Folded MB

"Jun'er, I know your mother will be sad, but I can't help it, the position you will do in the future, you will understand my difficulties, you can go and accompany your mother! Make it clear to her that the relationship with her husband and wife will not change. ”

Yang Jun had no choice but to get up and say, "Then I'm going to visit my mother!" ”

At the same time that Yang Jun went out to visit his mother, Yang Wei also left Yang's mansion and galloped towards Hebei, he brought Yang Yuanqing a bad news, the head of the house Yang Xuangan greatly improved the treatment of the house, the housekeepers accepted the adjustment plan, and no one was willing to make trouble with him, which meant that Yang Yuanqing's strategy of dividing the Yang Mansion failed.

At the same time, a letter from Zheng's family was also sent to Zhuojun overnight.
