Du Wanxi raised her head and looked at the old lady: "Grandmother, the cousin of my distant aunt's family is the follower of General Shen's relatives, and he took me to the general's mansion." ”

The old lady has also heard of the abandoned martial arts arena of General Shen's house, and I heard that as long as someone can guarantee it, she can go in and play.

"Don't go again!" The old lady threw down this sentence stubbornly.

Du Wanxi stiffened her neck and replied: "Why?" ”

The old lady slapped the table and glared angrily: "Because you are not that material!" ”

"Grandmother! General Shen often praises his grandson! Besides, my grandson likes to practice martial arts, and I ask my grandmother to do it! ”

Du Wanxi said, knocking her head down.

Jiao Shi also smiled flatteringly: "Mother, Brother Xi likes to practice martial arts, please allow it, right?" ”

The old lady glared: "No! If I say no, I can't! ”

She immediately pulled Mrs. Wei to show her sadness: "When the old uncle was there, future generations were not allowed to practice martial arts!" Why, now, why are they doing this, against me, a lonely old woman? ”

She said and took out a silk towel and wiped her eyes: "Mama Wei, what do you say I will see after a hundred years?" ”

Du Pengguang couldn't help but reply: "Mother, why doesn't the son know, grandfather and father have this idea?" ”

After all, among the three brothers, he stayed with his father the longest, and if Bofu really had this ancestral teaching, his father would definitely explain it to him back then.

Seeing that Du Pengguang dared to fight back, the old lady took away the silk scarf and scolded: "You are a vertical son!" Could it be that my wife is old, and she will still lie to you? ”

"Old lady! Why are you so selfish? Could it be that Xi'er has called your grandmother for so many years, is it for nothing? Jiao Shi only felt that his eyes were about to split, and his voice was a little louder.

"You, you still dare to talk back to my wife!" The old lady's muscles burst out, pointing at Jiao's family, and fire almost erupted from her eyes: "My uncle's mansion can't afford to keep you!" Where did you come from, get back to me! ”

"Mother, you are discouraged!"

Before Du Pengguang could speak, he was spat back by the old lady: "Second child!" You are going to stop this today, dare to disobey your mother-in-law's unfilial daughter-in-law! My wife's life is in your hands today! ”

Without waiting for Du Pengguang to express his position, Jiao picked up his little daughter and took his two sons away.

Here, the old lady comforted Du Pengguang: "Second child, don't worry, when you divorce the daughter of this merchant in the future, your mother will find you a daughter from an official eunuch's family, which can be regarded as the right family!" ”

Du Pengguang was speechless: Didn't you pick this daughter-in-law too? Back then, they still forced me to marry!

However, he didn't dare to fight back now, so he had to persuade the old lady who was angry again and asked her not to be like Jiao's.

Jiao took the children back to his parents' home, and Du Pengguang did not dare to stop him in order to maintain his reputation as a filial son.

It's just that secretly, he arranged for someone to follow Jiao's with gifts, and sent a lot of things and silver tickets for Jiao's to bring back to his parents' house.

Jiao also knew Du Pengguang's difficulties, so he did not reject his arrangement.

The more the old lady thought about it, the more resentful she became: why did her grandson want to make a name for himself, but he ended up like this? It is possible to become a waste person in the future, but her grandson can climb the high branches? Maybe you can still enjoy that glory and wealth in the future?

No way! Can't let this little thing get its way! Otherwise, in the future, under Jiuquan, I will not have the face to see my sister who died in vain!

The more the old lady thought about it, the more angry she became, so much so that at lunchtime, she just drank two mouthfuls of white fungus lotus seed soup and put down the spoon.

After lunch, the old lady went to the old general's mansion in person and asked to see the old general, but she didn't even see him.

It was the old general's eldest daughter-in-law, and Mrs. Lan received her.

As soon as the old lady saw Madame Lan, she stood up tremblingly on crutches.

Her legs and feet are not yet neat, but in order to show her sincerity, she came this time, and she did not come in a wheelchair.

"Big lady! You don't know, although there are so many grandchildren in the old body, only this one grandson is the most like the first husband! And when the late husband was leaving, he told him that his heirs were thin, and he should not let his children and grandchildren practice martial arts!

Lady, you don't know, if I hadn't dreamed a few days ago that my brother Xi had an accident, I wouldn't have been so restless that I fell and injured my legs and feet. ”

When Mrs. Lan saw that she was an old lady, she interceded in person with a cane, and hurriedly said:

"Don't worry, old lady, I'll go and tell the people at the door when I turn around, and in the future, no one in the Bofu will be allowed to go to the martial arts arena."

"Thank you, Madame!" The old lady got up again, gave Mrs. Lan a bow, and then left satisfied.

But what the old lady didn't know was that Du Wanxi knelt outside the gate of the General's Mansion for several hours.

His persistence touched the sober General Shen, who asked him to take his handwritten letter and defect to the hussar general General Liu.

After all, even if he is in the Old General Shen's Mansion, no matter how well he behaves, it is useless to have a future with him.

In the afternoon, when the concierge was clean, Wanyi came to the concierge to find Du Pengguang.

At that time, Du Pengguang was in the gatehouse, absentmindedly calculating the accounts.

Seeing Wanyi coming in, she hurriedly put down the account book and ordered the little maid to serve tea and pastries.

Wanyi smiled and waved her hand: "Second uncle don't be busy, I'm just here to ask second uncle to help me buy some flower seeds in my yard." ”

When Du Pengguang heard this, he used the excuse to support the little guys.

"Sister Yi'er, tell me, what are you looking for the second uncle?" Du Pengguang looked a little tired, but the smile at the corner of his eyebrows was very sincere.

Wanyi didn't beat around the bush with him, and asked him directly:

"Second uncle, why doesn't grandmother like the second room? According to Wanyi, it seems that it is not such a simple matter as the master's mother grinding her concubine. ”

Seeing Wanyi ask like this, Du Pengguang instantly put away his smile.

After walking around the room twice, he made up his mind and looked at Wanyi with his eyebrows raised: "Sister Yi, some things don't need such complicated reasons. ”

It turned out that when the old uncle was there, the relationship between husband and wife with the old lady was not good.

It's all because the old lady is a little childish, and the old uncle is used to being rough and big, and he is unusually filial to his parents.

Because of this, the two started a cold war at every turn.

When the old uncle is angry, he likes to go to Du Pengguang's biological mother, Aunt Tao.

The old lady secretly hated this, thinking that it was Aunt Tao who took away the old uncle's feelings for her, and she was angry with Aunt Tao in her heart.

At that time, Aunt Fu was still called Fu Qingrou.

Because of her father's death, she and her mother at the age of five went to Bofu.

Fu Qingrou's mother, because she and the old uncle and wife are from the same aunt, the relationship is very close.

Seeing that his brother-in-law always picks his nose and eyes at his sister, Fu Qing's mother was also young and vigorous.

She relied on her relatives to suppress Aunt Tao several times.

When the old uncle saw this, although he was angry, he pitied her widowhood and didn't say anything.

That morning's breakfast, I had eaten well, but in the end, the old man had a big fight with the old lady for some reason.

Fu Qingrou's mother saw that her sister was pitiful, and went to find Aunt Tao's stubble.

Aunt Tao not only treated her with the same courtesy as before this time, but also specially brought out the white fungus lotus seed soup that her uncle gave her in the morning.

Who knew that after Fu Qingrou's mother ate it, she bled to death directly.
