Chapter 46 The Jiang Family Turmoil
At this time, Mama Liang brought two more letters, one was written by Gu Lichi, and ordered someone to send it to Pengpu quickly. The other letter was written by Gu's second wife, Liang, and was sent to the Lin family in an expedited manner for eight hundred miles, and it was also sealed with the fire paint of the post station, and the Liang family obviously used the letter that was sent by the relationship.
Lin didn't look at the letter written by Gu Lichi, but glanced at the letter written by Gu's second wife Liang, she only received Liang's letter three days ago, and three days later she wrote another letter to send it over, Liang was really in a hurry! The letter said that she would go to Yunnan the day after tomorrow, and when she heard that she was sick, she personally came down to pick her up and go back to Chengjiang to recuperate.
Out of sight is pure, Lin looked at the two letters on the table, like a talisman! She only felt a headache when she saw it, so she asked Mama Liang to put the two letters away.
Lin had just gotten up and was about to leave the Buddha Hall, when the little maid who was waiting by Feng Lao'an's side came outside the house to report, saying that Qi's fetal movement was unwell, and she came to ask Lin to accompany her, and the two old people just talked.
"Old lady, last night Feng Lao'an ordered Miss Zijuan to come over and ask you to come over, but you went to bed early last night, so I didn't come to tell you." Mama Liang said as she tidied up Lin's clothes.
"I don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, she invited me over, it's nothing more than to ask for something. I'll go over and see what she's asking for. "The Lin family sent most of the people who served in the inner courtyard, so this time I only brought Mama Liang with her, Mama Liang is an old man who has served her for many years, and she is with her, and she is more at ease.
Because the little tea in the Buddhist hall was instructed by Feng Lao'an to serve the Lin family, let her stay in the house alone, the Lin family inevitably felt uneasy, so he asked Chun Han to stay in the house and take care of her.
Kunming, Chengnan Lane Dingwu Marquis Mansion. Dingwu Houfu is the only family in Chengnan Lane, occupying the entire Chengnan Lane.
But Chengnan Lane not only lives in the Dingwu Hou family, but also lives in the Jiang family's long room and second room, the old Dingwu Hou is the child of the Jiang family's ancestors, inherited the foundation of the ancestors, and inherited the title of the Dingwu Marquis. It's a pity that he just inherited the title, Miao Jiang rebelled, and the imperial court let Lao Dingwu Marquis lead the troops to go on the expedition, and then Lao Dingwu Marquis died on the battlefield, and even the body was never recovered.
The old Dingwu Hou's wife Feng Shi hugged the seven-year-old Jiang Haiyang, that is, Jiang Zhiming's father, the current Dingwu Hou, and cried in front of the spirit for three days. After that, it was the Feng family who pulled Jiang Haiyang and sent him into the official career, and also inherited his father's title.
The northwest corner of Dingwu Hou's Mansion, Minghua Hall. It is the widowed place of the old lady Feng of Dingwu Hou, and the wife of Dingwu Hou Tao has always disliked her mother-in-law, but she only thinks that she is unlucky and a Kefu person. So she moved to the northwest corner of the secluded garden.
The Marquis of Dingwu was filial to his mother, and he couldn't see his mother being hurt in the slightest, and Tao couldn't resist his husband, so he could only build this courtyard called "Minghuatang" for her.
There is a small Buddha hall behind the Minghua Hall, the Buddha Hall is changed from the ear room, although the place is not big, but the flowers and fruits, tea and snacks are all set up very properly, enshrine a statue of Goddess of Mercy that the old lady Feng Shi invited back from the Buddhist temple, the statue of Goddess of Mercy is carved out of a whole piece of rosewood, the skill is exquisite, the statue of Goddess of Mercy is lifelike.
The bodhisattva looked down on sentient beings lovingly and peacefully, but kept his eyes closed and did not see the suffering of sentient beings.
Feng knelt on the futon in front of the offering table, wearing a navy blue treasure pattern gown, his head full of silver filigree tied in a bun with three rose gilt hairpins, and his eyes were slightly closed. With the agarwood Nanmu Buddha beads that Dingwuhou sent to her one hundred and eight sons not long ago, Dingwuhou was filial to his mother, and if he got any good things, he would send them to her as soon as possible.
Jiang Fusheng, the eldest son of the Jiang family, also knelt beside the Feng family, he was the second son of Jiang Haiju, the cousin of the Marquis of Dingwu, the governor of Liangjiang, because Jiang Haiyang had no Jiang Zhiming, before the son-in-law, in order to keep the title of the Marquis of Dingwu from being taken away by the second room, he could only succeed the distant son-in-law.
Just because he is not Tao's biological son, and he occupies the identity of the eldest son, it will prevent his biological Jiang Zhiming from inheriting the title in the future, so Tao does not like him very much. Feng took pity on him, took him to his side since he was a child, raised him, and now Jiang Fusheng has achieved fame and has moved out of the house.
Although he moved out of the mansion, he just moved out of the Dingwu Marquis Mansion and reopened a mansion in Chengnan Lane.
"Has Brother Zhiming come back? I heard him say that his mother had promised him the Mu Xiao County Lord of Mu Wangfu, but he didn't like that Mu Xiao County Lord, and he knew that his brother would not agree to his mother if he was alive or dead. Feng continued to move the Buddha beads in his hand and asked Jiang Fusheng beside him.
"The person who went to Punpu to pick up the second brother hasn't come back yet, I'm afraid it's still on the way. The second brother was brought up by his grandmother, no matter how he said that the marriage of the second brother should be decided by the grandmother, why should the wife force the second brother to marry someone she doesn't like? Jiang Fusheng opened his eyes and replied as he looked at Feng Shi beside him.
"After all, his wife is his mother, and the marriage is a major event, and it is the parents who are in charge, and what I want to say as an old guy is powerless. But Brother Zhiming doesn't like that Mu Xiaojun Lord, even if he marries back, it is not a good husband and wife, I have already sent someone to Lijiang to withdraw from the marriage, but I don't know if Mu Wangfu is willing to agree to come down?" The Buddha beads in Feng's hand had already turned her head, and as soon as she opened her eyes, the little maid waiting beside her had already helped her up.
"My wife wants to see the old lady, but I wonder if the old lady is in there?" Not long after Feng sat down, he heard a commotion outside, and he didn't know what was going on.
Suddenly, a little maid waiting in the outer courtyard walked in in a panic, her face was a little unsightly, and there was a red slap mark on her face, "Old lady, the eldest lady is here." I said that the old lady was worshipping the Buddha and did not see any guests, so the eldest lady ordered Ah Huan to give me a slap. As she spoke, the little maid began to shed tears.
Feng Shi hurriedly asked Han Qiu beside her to stop her, this is the Buddha Hall, blessed by the Bodhisattva's Buddha light, how can she easily shed tears, this is disrespectful to the Bodhisattva.
Before Feng Shi could speak, he saw Dingwu Hou's wife Tao Shi leading a large handful of girls Hao Hao Tang and walked in, but Tao Shi was still a person who knew the rules and knew that the small Buddha Hall was a clean place, so he only brought a maid in, which was Ah Huan, who had just beaten people.
Tao glanced around the room and saw Jiang Fusheng, so he said to Jiang Fusheng: "Fusheng has filial piety these days, and he accompanies his mother in the Buddhist hall all day long, I don't know what happened to you outside?" ”
Jiang Fusheng didn't want to deal with her, but Feng was there, and he always wanted to give Tao some face, so he had to force a smile and said lightly: "Mother Lao is worried, and my father has already helped Fusheng to handle the matter of release." Next month, I will go to Mojiang to take up my post. In the past few days, I haven't been there, so I came to talk to my grandmother. ”
Tao didn't have time to listen to Jiang Fusheng say this, but she had something important to discuss with Feng, so she turned her head to Feng and said, "Mother, why did you order someone to go to Lijiang to divorce the marriage?" I have already told Princess Mu that after Lord Mu marries, I will not treat her badly and treat her as my own daughter. You ordered someone to go and divorce the marriage, and told me how to behave? ”
Feng Shi didn't raise his head to look at her, drank the Lu'an melon slices in his hand, and said coldly: "This is the daughter-in-law you found for Brother Zhiming?" What is the door of Muwangfu, what door are we, why do people look down on our family? It's not that Haiyang has had a good job with the Construction Division over the years, so Mu Wangfu wants to come over and get a piece of the pie. I've seen that over the years, you've been doing more and more foolish things. ”
