Chapter 960: Stability
Time is urging people to grow old, but the people around them have become unrecognizable, which is what really makes the ladies unable to hide the fact that they are getting old.
Cheng Kejia originally thought that Mrs. Wang's age was about the same age as her grandmother, but after she heard Mrs. Wang mention her age, she was actually not much different from Zhuo's age.
The Zhuo family is still in her early thirties, but Mrs. Wang seems to have reached her twilight years early.
Mrs. Wang occasionally mentions things when she was young, and her mother's family was better off than the Wang family at that time, but her mother's family took a fancy to Lord Wang's future and felt that Mrs. Wang was married.
When Mrs. Wang was young, she felt that Lord Wang was a bit of a nerd, and she looked very affectionate, and Mrs. Wang was secretly happy in her heart, it is better to have a lover than a ruthless person.
After Lord Wang had the support of his wife's family, he went all the way to the list, and then with the support of his wife's family, he started from a small place, he still had a little ambition in his heart at that time, and it happened that his boss was fair, and he never blocked the way of Lord Wang.
Lord Wang happened to be a good time, so he became a six-grade official in Yangzhou City all the way, Lord Wang was not very old at this time, he naturally had no low ambitions, and he looked a little more energetic than people of the same age.
Lord Wang accidentally met a little woman who fell in love with him at first sight, the little woman's background was pitiful, she was the concubine of a merchant, her aunt was gone, and her mother was looking for a not very good family for her.
The little woman thought that all she was thinking about was Lord Wang, so she came to Lord Wang, and she said that she didn't want to follow her aunt's old path, she just wanted to have the opportunity to serve Lord Wang.
Such a young and beautiful woman, such a pure expression, Lord Wang's heart softened, he could still stand at the beginning, when he sighed with Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Wang looked at the look in Lord Wang's eyes, she already knew that her doom had come.
Lord Wang was a righteous gentleman in his mouth, and he never resolutely refused the little woman's closeness in private.
The little girl's mother's family naturally has a plan, and their daughter is willing to take such a road, they think about interests, so they can only pretend to be aggrieved and act according to the concubine, and naturally suppress the concubine's mother at home.
Mrs. Wang privately talked to the woman's mother-in-law, and when she saw the mother-in-law's sympathetic eyes, the mother-in-law and Mrs. Wang sighed and said: "She is more capable than her aunt, your family has no intention, she can't entangle your family."
Now that your adult has a heart, and she has intentions, your heart is prepared for the worst. ”
The grandmother told Mrs. Wang about the family affairs she chose for the little concubine, and after Mrs. Wang heard it, she thought that the family affairs that the grandmother had found for the little concubine were quite good.
After Mrs. Wang figured it out, there was a shocked look on her face, it turned out that this little woman was such a high-minded person, she was bent on taking shortcuts.
Mrs. Wang could only watch Lord Wang willingly fall into the deep water, Lord Wang's expression towards Mrs. Wang, it was becoming more and more critical, and at first Mrs. Wang still wanted to save Lord Wang.
It is really too difficult for their husband and wife to come together from the hardest days to the present, but Lord Wang listened to Mrs. Wang's bittersweet memories, and his heart was more and more angry, he only felt that Mrs. Wang had stepped on his face over and over again.
Then the little woman outside was young, and she was full of admiration for him, and the little woman said that she would only die without Lord Wang, and Lord Wang placed people outside, and he himself slowly looked for an opportunity to live outside.
When Mrs. Wang was sad, she thought about separation, but when she thought about the future of her children and grandchildren, she was unwilling to fulfill Lord Wang and the little woman.
Mrs. Wang unilaterally stopped providing Mr. Wang's excess expenses, and in private she still asked Mr. Wang for his family.
When Lord Wang had the heart to refuse, Mrs. Wang said directly to Lord Wang: "I will give you two ways, one for you to give to the family on time, and the other one, then I will talk to your boss, you have a person with a bad character outside the family, can you continue to be an official?" ”
Lord Wang gives the family every month, and Mrs. Wang has only one requirement for Lord Wang's private affairs, and it is okay if his affairs are not big, but Lord Wang is not allowed to seek any benefits for the woman's mother's family in private, otherwise she would rather break the jade and earn a chance for her children and grandchildren.
Lord Wang had already persuaded the woman a little in private, but Mrs. Wang's words made him sober up again, in fact, everyone knows a little bit about such a thing, and now someone may want to take the position, waiting for him to make a mistake.
The concubine's heart naturally has a certain affection for Lord Wang, at least Lord Wang has official authority, and when Lord Wang is willing to be a person, he still does quite well.
Mrs. Wang said in front of everyone that Lord Wang came back, and her eyes seemed to be saying that the guests entered the inn, and the expression on her face was worse than that of the innkeeper, at least the innkeeper really welcomed the guests, and Mrs. Wang was half-forced to open the business.
Cheng Kejia listened to the wives jokingly talking about family affairs with each other, she only felt that it was okay, although after the discord between the husband and wife, everything could not be rested, but the wives could think about it, and no longer entangled and did not stop, in fact, it was the best way to deal with it.
In the evening, Cheng Kejia and Gu You sighed lightly: "Husband, after living on this street for a long time, my eyes when I look at men are a little wrong, and I think everyone is white-eyed." ”
Gu You looked at Cheng Kejia and was quite speechless, but he thought that everyone would inevitably encounter them in the future, so Cheng Kejia didn't show any expression, and made others have scruples.
Gu You carefully told Cheng Kejia about all kinds of excellent things about the surrounding officials, and then he sighed to Cheng Kejia: "They actually don't want to take concubines, but, alas." ”
Under Cheng Kejia's bright eyes, Gu You couldn't find a suitable word, he continued, he was worried that Cheng Kejia would definitely make trouble with him, and he didn't want to provoke his wife for other people's affairs.
Gu You quickly changed his tone and said: "Lady, I think you are right, women work so hard to follow men from nothing to the point where they are now, when a man is old, he still has to take concubines to prove that he is young, and it is indeed a little inappropriate." ”
Gu You looked at the smile on Cheng Kejia's face, he only felt tired, he thought that he still had to get along with Cheng Kejia and his wife for a while, Cheng Kejia was now more defensive in this regard than before.
Cheng Kejia also reflected in Gu Youze's eyes, and she took the initiative to say to Gu Youze: "Husband, I will take care of the children at home safely, and I have been together with them for a while." ”
