In the afternoon, a few carriages were parked in front of the Zhou Mansion in Jinzhou, and Dong stood at the door looking at a few carriages, looking at the last one to pull the luggage, his heart was sour, and the eldest sister's dowry was left with only these.

When the Jiang family entered Beijing, the eldest sister's dowry furniture and other items were all disposed of, and looking at the little dowry, the Dong family had mixed feelings.

Dong Yiyi got out of the carriage in a trance, looked at her sister, and her uneasy heart was steady, God knows if her sister didn't send someone, whether their family would be eaten by the clansmen.

Dong Yiyi staggered and stepped forward in a choked voice, "Sister." ”

Dong Shi helped his sister, his eyes were also red, his sister's life was really bitter, "Sister, now that it's safe, it's all over, let's go into the house." ”

Dong Yiyi nodded, and looked at the carriage behind him, "Your brother-in-law." ”

Dong resents his brother-in-law in his heart, he is still an official honestly, but now it's good, the harmful sister wants to go back to her mother's house, and the future of the harmful niece and niece is unknown, "I have invited a doctor, sister don't worry." ”

But no matter how annoyed she is, she also has to show her brother-in-law's legs, her brother-in-law is alive, her sister is not a widow, and her brother-in-law's knowledge is still there, and he can teach his nephew.

Dong Yiyi wiped her tears and held a child in one hand, "I'll go and thank your mother-in-law." ”

Dong looked at his nephew and niece in fright, "I'll let my mother-in-law watch the children, the children are also tired." ”

Dong Yiyi felt sorry for her son and daughter, and held back her tears, "It's okay." ”

In the main courtyard, Zhulan heard footsteps and saw Dong Yiyi, "It's good to be safe." ”

Dong Yiyi's tears fell again, "You're right, peace is a blessing." ”

After speaking, she was about to kneel down and thank her, but Zhulan hurriedly gave Dong a look, and Dong helped him.

Zhulan sighed, "The Zhou family didn't help much, you don't have to make such a big gift." ”

Dong Yiyi wiped her tears, "You have taken us in, you have been very gracious, and we have nothing to repay." ”

If she didn't come to the Zhou Mansion to occupy it, if there were no people from the Zhou Mansion, she didn't know what to do.

Zhulan sighed in her heart, Dong's sister's life was really bitter, "You have been scared for a few days, now you are at ease, the children also need you, you should go back and rest first." ”

Dong Yiyi didn't dare to stay longer, Jiang Mansion is now unlucky, "Yes." ”

The Dong sisters left, Mrs. Song came back, and Zhulan asked, "Ask me what happened in the capital?" ”

Mrs. Song said: "I asked clearly, the third wife's mother-in-law arrived at a good time, and the elders of the Jiang family had just arrived, because of the people of the Zhou Mansion, the Jiang family's calculations failed, and they left without getting benefits, but Jiang Ming was removed from the Jiang family." ”

Zhulan guessed, and saw that Mrs. Song still had something to say, "Is there anything else?" ”

Mrs. Song continued: "The Jiang family still wants to marry Miss Jiang, if there is no one from the Zhou Mansion today, Miss Jiang will stay in the Jiang family." ”

Zhulan was silent, the Jiang clan was not optimistic about Jiang Muchen, but optimistic about Jiang Mulan's value, "It's really thorough enough to calculate." ”

Mrs. Song said in a low voice: "The only hope of the Jiang clan is Jiang Ming, in the past few years, there has been no less benefit from Jiang Ming, every year the people in the clan come to fight the autumn breeze, now that the Jiang Mansion is in trouble, even if you hide far away, you will fall into the well, I heard the little guy say that there are doctors in the Jiang clan, and I didn't say to show Jiang Ming's legs." ”

Zhulan said faintly: "No wonder the Jiang clan has declined, and the roots are bad." ”

Mrs. Song was disdainful in her heart, "There are also people who mention the dowry of the Da Dong family, saying that Jiang Ming has affected the Jiang family and needs to be compensated!" ”

Zhulan was speechless, "It's too ugly to eat." ”

Mrs. Song has seen many families, some families are united, the family is the backing, and some families are very realistic, "The dowry of the Da Dong family is not much, only a carriage is loaded." ”

Zhulan paused, "You go and talk to the needlework room and make a dress for the four members of the Jiang family, by the way, what about Jiang Ming's concubine?" ”

She remembered that Jiang Ming later accepted two more concubines, and Jiang Ming also had a lot of concubines.

Mrs. Song, "The catastrophe came and flew away, and several concubines begged Da Dong's family, and Da Dong's family wrote a document to release the concubine, and Jiang Ming's signature has been released." ”

Zhulan didn't ask anymore, and motioned to Mrs. Song to make arrangements.

In the evening, Zhou Shuren came back, "How is Jiang Ming's situation?" ”

Zhulan had palpitations, "The knee of the right leg was broken, and the doctor saw that there was no chance to return to normal." ”

Zhou Shuren, "He exchanged one leg for his life, and he was crippled, and it was more difficult for Jiang Ming to endure than Lisuo's death." ”

Zhulan said: "Yes, Jiang Ming was an official in Pingzhou, and when he went back to live, the situation before and after was very different, and Jiang Ming was the most tormented in his heart. ”

Zhulan said again: "I thought you wouldn't agree to Jiang Ming's family temporarily living in the Zhou Mansion!" ”

Zhou Shuren changed his clothes, "What a good teaching material, it's too wasteful not to use too much, Chang Lian and Chang Zhi, this time I have a deeper understanding of the cruelty of officialdom, lest the two of them take me as a standard, thinking that officialdom is all seniors taking care of juniors, and they love it very much!" ”

Zhulan laughed, "I think your educational purpose has been achieved." ”

Zhou Shuren's educational purpose was indeed achieved, and several sons of the Zhou family went to see Jiang Ming.

The eldest and second can be better, they don't have contact with officialdom, and officialdom is too far away from them.

Chang Lian's heart is not calm, everyone has ambition, he saw the cruelty from his brother-in-law, especially his brother-in-law's legs, this is the price of his brother-in-law's ambitions, "I asked the doctor again, the doctor's meaning, the brother-in-law's leg was not just beaten with one stick, but several sticks." ”

Dong Chuchu grabbed the handkerchief, "You must be cautious when you enter the officialdom in the future, my brother-in-law is a lesson from the past." ”

Chang Lian held the lady's hand, "I'll be careful." ”

He found that even if he was protected by his father, if he really wanted to take revenge on him, disfigure him, and break his hands and feet, it would still be easy, as long as he didn't die anyway.

In the fourth room, Chang Zhi was absent-minded, Su Xuan came over, "It's been a long time, you haven't read a single page of the book, and you put down the book when you think about things." ”

Changzhi put down the book and took a breath, "Dad has always asked me to analyze allusions, I have analyzed more, and I know more about officialdom, but when I really met Jiang Ming, I realized that talking on paper is far less direct than reality." ”

Su Xuan was happy in her heart, she was happy that Changzhi thought with her heart, her husband was not stupid, but he didn't pay attention to everything, this is also a growth, "Dad watched you learn, that's Dad loves you, look at who Dad has been so strict with except Mingyun." ”

Changzhi reflected on himself, "You're right, I will definitely study hard in the future." ”

Su Xuan was happy in her heart, she felt that she could give the Jiang family girl some jewelry.

The next day, Zhou Shuren went to the Yamen, and the king said: "Your Excellency is benevolent and righteous." ”

Zhou Shuren blinked his eyes and said cheekily: "In the final analysis, they are all relatives." ”

Lord Wang admired it even more in his heart.
