Chapter 43: The Scar

Every time she thinks of her own righteousness back then, the old lady's heart still throbs.

In this life, a woman can be so presumptuous once, and it is not in vain.

If she still has something related to her mother's family in her hand, it is just a letter of rupture written to her by her father, and the letter clearly explains that their father and daughter have been cut off from then on, and they have nothing to do with each other.

Therefore, the letter was glanced at by the old lady with teary eyes, and then it was locked in a box and stored for decades, and the old lady did not dare to open it. I'm afraid of being poked into my heart by those words.

After getting married, he could only sell his gold and silver jewelry and help Song Zhaoting buy a small shop in the capital that was half open.

The young lady of the prime minister's family in the former dynasty worked hard for the sake of her love and endured all kinds of hardships.

Yu Qiao looked at the old lady with wet eyes, then stroked her heart with her little hand and said, "Grandmother, grandmother is the best woman in the world, and you are the best dowry in the world." ”

The old lady sneered: "Little thing, you know something, except that the mouth is like honey." But that's exactly what you said, and that's what your grandfather said back then. ”

Yu Qiao smiled: "So, grandmother, don't think about saving a dowry for me, I will be the best dowry in the world in the future, and whoever marries me will be his blessing." ”

The old lady twisted her face: "The big woman is not left, she is married when she opens and closes, and she is not ashamed." ”

Yu Qiao continued to laugh.

Old lady, can you get to the point, my mother's dowry......

The old lady laughed enough, and slowly groaned.

In that year, the Wen family sold dozens of cloth houses in the capital, and took out half of the treasury silver in the mansion and brought it to the Song Mansion as Wen Lanxin's dowry.

This shocked the entire capital.

People only said that the old man Wen doted on his daughter, and did not hesitate to take out half of the Wen family's family business to marry.

Until Song Zhaoting died, he left the old lady and Song Mingshi in front of the bed and told the secret.

Half of the Wen family's family business is to let Wen Lanxin bring it into the Song Mansion to save the Song family from fire and water.

The Song family is indebted to the Wen family after all.

This is also the reason why the old lady and Song Mingshi are particularly protective of Yu Qiao, and the Song family must not violate the promise of the old man Song back then.

As for the dowry, it has long been gone.

The old lady instructed her grandmother: "Go to my private treasury and seal five hundred taels of silver to Qiao Yatou." ”

Yu Qiao's eyes immediately had stars in his eyes......

Five hundred taels is equivalent to more than two million yuan......

Hahahaha...... Belch......

Although he smiled, he did not miss the look of distress in the old lady's eyes. It seems that these five hundred taels are not a small amount for the old lady.

Yu Qiao suddenly couldn't bear it, and said softly: "Qiao'er doesn't need so much silver. ”

The old lady touched her head: "Take it, if your mother is still ......"

Yu Qiao's heart was sour: "Thank you, grandmother, I will save some flowers." ”

Then he got up and knelt down in front of the old lady: "Qiao'er made a mistake today, please punish your grandmother." When Qiao Er got out of school this morning, she slapped Sister Ru. ”

The old lady was startled, but she was really angry: "You are so bold! Do you think that with me pampering you, you will do whatever you want? ”

Yu Qiao pouted, looking pitiful: "Sister Ru quarreled with Sister Zhu, she said that Sister Zhu will become an old girl who can't marry in the house in the future, and even if someone talks about marriage, she will be repented." Qiao Er thought of her aunt, and felt uncomfortable, so she made a move. ”

The old lady's eyes instantly turned red, and it took a long time before she said, "Get up." ”

Yu Qiao still knelt and continued: "Qiao Er has seen Aunt Qing twice, in Qiao Er's heart, grandmother is the best woman in the world, Aunt Qing is also the best woman in the world, the best woman is not necessarily the luckiest woman, Qiao Er cherishes Aunt Qing in her heart, and she will definitely protect Aunt Qing in the future." ”

The old lady's lips trembled: "What else?" ”

Yu Qiao looked at her, tears rolling into tears: "Qiao'er has been stupid for ten years and is not familiar with the personnel in the house, but Qiao'er only recognizes one, a family is a family, a family should protect each other to the death, and a family should be in the same boat." Even if Aunt Qing really did something wrong and broke her grandmother's heart, she is still the best woman in the world, and she is still the person Qiao Er has to protect. ”

The old lady took the handkerchief and wiped the tears that had already flowed.

There was a scar in her heart, which was torn open by Yu Qiao.

Back then, fame was the same as himself, falling in love with someone who was not the right person.

That person's name is Fanzhi, and he is a young man with talents, and he is known as "Tongxuan Bachelor".

When he was young, his family was wealthy, and he lived a rich and leisurely life, reading Confucian classics and poetry books.

At the end of the Sui Dynasty, the war was chaotic, and the family road was in the middle. is full of talent, but repeatedly fails.

In order to make a living, farmers are busy farming, and farmers are idle in business. Occasionally, he painted poems with some literati in tea shops.

Song Mingqing, a talented girl who became famous in Kyoto at the age of thirteen, fell in love with such a person.

The man looked sad and helpless, and repeatedly refused that his family was poor and had no strengths, and he was not worthy of the love of Song Mingqing.

Unless he gets ahead one day, he is bound to marry Song Mingqing as his wife.

Song Zhaoting thought that he could fall in love with the young lady of the prime minister's family for a lifetime. Why can't your daughter fight for what she loves?

So, he connived at Song Mingqing. and donate to it.

A large amount of silver was dotted with two parties, so that the other party became a supervisor and cast official, from the eighth grade.

He once thought that during the other party's tenure, he was slandered and stolen.

In order to avoid being imprisoned, Song Zhaoting was spared from prison and dismissed from his official position by adding a large amount of silver.

After two times, it almost exhausted the treasury silver of the Song Mansion.

Song Mingtu, who was a school scrivener, was appreciated by the secretary and had the opportunity to be promoted to the secretary.

For the sake of the future of his second son, Song Zhaoting resolutely sold three shops.

And Song Mingqing begged Song Zhaoting again, and his loved one had a rare opportunity to donate officials.

For the sake of her daughter's happiness, Song Zhaoting gritted his teeth and sold four more shops.

At this moment, a shipload of antiques brought by Fu Guxuan from the south sank, and more than a dozen servants were drowned.

Song Zhaoting was kind-hearted and refused to treat the families of those who had died, and just wanted to take more silver to appease them.

In desperation, he lowered his identity and face, and went to several old friends in the capital who had a deep friendship on weekdays to propose marriage to his eldest son Song Mingshi.

Only the Wen family agreed to this family business. used half of the family business as a dowry to help the Song Mansion.

Wen Lanxin's dowry was mostly distributed by Song Zhaoting to the families of the dozen or so drowned servants.

Who would have thought that Song Mingtu was not promoted, but Fanzhi replaced him as a secretary and became a secretary.

He vowed to marry Song Mingqing as long as he took office, but he turned his face and repented of marrying the young lady in the mansion of the secretary and supervisor.

Song Zhaoting vomited blood and became seriously ill.

It's not just Song Mingtu who resents his beloved sister and helps outsiders take away his chance to be promoted.
