The old lady has two sons, the eldest son Huang Zongzheng and the second son Huang Zongyi.

The brothers are clan members and take the word justice as their name.

The old lady was a little older than the old lady and is now deceased.

Now the eldest son is in charge of the house, managing all the businesses outside the Huang family, the eldest daughter-in-law is in charge of the affairs of the inner house, and the old lady does not care about affairs now.

Chen Xi listened to what Mrs. Zhang said, and understood the honorific title here.

The population of the Huang family is also well understood.

The old lady is currently the highest senior.

Her eldest son, Huang Zongzheng, is exactly 39 years old this year, and her eldest daughter-in-law, Gongsun, is 38 years old.

Mrs. Zhang called them lord and wife.

The couple had two more sons.

They are called Huang Zeen and Huang Zemin, and they are about 20 years old, and they have already married wives.

Mrs. Zhang calls them the eldest young master and the second young master, and their wife is called the eldest grandmother and the second grandmother.

As for other flat wives and concubines, I can't understand it for a while.

Mrs. Zhang only smiled and said, "You will all know if you stay longer." ”

The little girls were already dazed in the clouds, and only nodded subconsciously.

Chen Xi tried to write down the relationship between the characters.

After Mrs. Zhang finished speaking, the old lady of the big room talked about the second room, and before she could speak, she sighed first and said, "If you want to talk about it, I am still in a trance." ”

Mrs. Zhang blinked her sour eyes and said tremblingly: "The mother of the third young master, if she is still in the world, she should be called the second wife now, where can she be called the second grandmother?" It's not that I just entered the house..."

Mrs. Zhang originally gave them popular science, but now she is sad when she talks about it.

Chen Xicai gradually learned from her what happened to the third young master.

Mrs. Zhang said: "The old lady used to love the second master the most, but in the end, it was the youngest son, so she naturally loved her more." ”

She added: "The second master is still married to the daughter of the old lady's close friend, and the second lady has been treated as a daughter by the old lady since she was a child..."

These two most painful children in life, can the old lady not hurt? It hurts to the bone.

Not to mention.

This third young master has already shown his intelligence when he is not very old, which is praised by everyone when they meet, and they all say that he has an unlimited future as a child.

Not to mention the old lady, when the old lady was alive, she was also extremely fond of the third young master.

He said that this child was Wenqu Xing, and the burden of their Huang family's Guangzong Yaozu was handed over to this child's shoulders, and he wanted to smash all the money into his studies.

In these years, the imperial examination is still very fragrant, and of course, the amount of money spent is also a lot.

With these few words alone, it is enough to understand how high the old couple's expectations are for him.

Mrs. Zhang is old, and she can't figure out what she can say.

Chen Xi summarized by himself.

It's nothing more than the old lady's favorite youngest son marrying the daughter of her best friend, so she has more preference for the second room.

How can such a favored family be secretive now?

The third young master was even more embarrassed by the name of bad luck.

There must be a story in between.

Mrs. Zhang also continued: "The second wife's family is also an imperial businessman, she is very wealthy, she is also very good at doing business by herself, and the housekeeper is also a good hand. ”

Mrs. Zhang sighed and said: "At that time, the old lady also crossed the eldest lady who had not long entered the door, and directly gave the authority of the family to the second wife, and the second lady is really a capable person, and the house is well organized, and no one dares to say anything..."

The other little girls suddenly came back to their senses, and then whispered: "That second wife is too powerful, such a big mansion, so many people, she can actually manage it obediently, too capable..."

"She was only sixteen or seventeen when she walked in, right? It's not much older than us, but she's so young that she can run the house, and the second wife is really strong..."

Chen Xi felt very problematic when he heard this, no matter how much the old lady liked that person, she could go over the eldest daughter-in-law to the younger daughter-in-law's housekeeper, wouldn't that be a hatred for the little daughter-in-law?

Something suddenly dawned on her.

Jealousy is terrible.

Sure enough, it didn't last long, and things began to happen.

Mrs. Zhang recalled: "That day was the same as usual, it was no different, but suddenly it spread that something happened to the second wife's mother's family!" It's still a big deal of corruption! ”

Speaking of this, her voice couldn't help but be lowered, as if she was saying something unspeakable.

Chen Xi can guess what will happen next.

The second wife's maiden family fell, she was implicated and captured, crying wrongly, but no one listened.

Eventually, he ended up in prison.

The second master went crazy when he heard the news, and after a few days of trouble, he finally disappeared.

Pity these three young masters.

My mother is gone, and my father is gone.

I'm not in good health.

There are also rumors that he is a disaster star, and anyone who meets him will be unlucky.

Returning the people.

Especially with the old lady.

The old lady was distressed, she didn't believe it, she just wanted to take good care of this child, who thought that as soon as she got close to him, she would be easily unlucky.

Later, he was seriously ill.

The old man of the Huang family did not allow her to get close to his little nephew anymore and raised the child in the backyard.

The old lady was sick with longing, but for the sake of mutual good, she agreed not to visit him.

I still have it in my heart.

I have to write a letter every year, but the process is very cumbersome, and I have to exorcise evil spirits to read it.

It's a lot of trouble.

Mrs. Zhang said with great emotion: "In a blink of an eye, the second wife has been gone for almost seven years, and the third young master has also been kept in captivity in the East Courtyard for almost seven years..."

But that place is still a forbidden place, and it is basically not allowed to be approached at will.

Mrs. Zhang thought to herself about the child, and she didn't believe it if the eldest lady had nothing to do with it.

If something happens to the second wife's mother's family, the eldest lady may not have the ability to do it, but it may still be possible to bully other people's children, otherwise a child can suddenly become like this?

Of course, the people in the house are pretending to be confused, and it is impossible for Mrs. Zhang to talk nonsense.

Chen Xi himself can guess something, but he won't say too much.

After all, it has nothing to do with her.

The other little girls were confused when they heard it, and only when they talked about the cursed third young master did they come to their senses, and they all said whether this was true, would they also be sent to the East Courtyard?

After all, Shicai, other rough envoys all said that the former maids went crazy when they came back.

The little girls suddenly became anxious, and they all turned their heads and ears to express that they were very afraid.

Mrs. Zhang just smiled and said: "It's okay to mention the third young master, don't go around the east courtyard, you won't have anything to do, as for going to the east courtyard to serve, it's even more impossible, others can't get close to that side, the third young master also has his nurse to serve, no one else needs to be there, not to mention that others can't stop him..."
