Chapter 38: A Farce
Man Man followed Su Wan to her Qingyu Courtyard, and Yaya followed behind them with a wooden box containing a happy spider.
As soon as she walked outside the Qingyu Courtyard, she heard the sound of laughter coming from inside, Su Wan walked in with Manman, and the girls who were still playing quieted down.
Su Wan took Manman's hand and introduced it to everyone: "This is Sister Ling, the daughter of the county magistrate's family." ”
Su Wan's voice fell, and a girl with a double bun suddenly said loudly: "What is the daughter of the county, my mother said, she is a drag oil bottle, otherwise why is the surname Ling not surnamed Jiang." ”
As soon as she finished speaking, two more girls chimed in: "Drag the oil bottle, drag the oil bottle." ”
The people who spoke were all several girls from the Su family, the double bun was Su Ping, the daughter of Su Wan's second uncle, and the other two were Su Ping's two sisters-in-law. Su Wan didn't expect them to be so ignorant, and was about to open her mouth to reprimand, but she heard a loud voice: "My surname used to be Ling, but my surname is Jiang now, and I am not a drag oil bottle." ”
As if afraid that others would not hear clearly, she reiterated again, "My father, my mother and grandmother all say that I am their baby, not an oil bottle." ”
Su Ping snorted and said disdainfully: "Don't think that if you change your surname, you are the daughter of the county magistrate, your mother is now pregnant with the child of the Jiang family, you are just a little pitiful that your father doesn't want." ”
As soon as Man Man heard this, he unceremoniously fought back: "You are the little pity that your father doesn't want." ”
Su Ping is the daughter of Second Young Master Su, but she is not the only daughter, Second Young Master Su doesn't like Second Grandma Su, and he doesn't pay much attention to her children.
The son is better, after all, there is only one single seedling born by Su Er's grandmother, and the daughter is not so lucky, he has several daughters, and the most favored is not Su Ping, but she is the most disgusted.
Manman's words undoubtedly poked Su Ping's sore spot, she rushed forward angrily and pushed Manman, and scolded in her mouth: "Shameless little bitch hooves, you dare to talk about me." ”
Man Man was pushed to the ground by her, and she was so frightened that she cried, and Su Wan and Yaya quickly helped her up.
Su Wan's face sank and scolded: "Second sister, you can't be crazy." ”
"What are you doing?" Su Ping looked disdainful and didn't pay attention to Su Wan at all.
Manman was still crying, and the maid suppressed the anger in her heart, and said loudly: "You bully Miss Manman, I'm going to tell Madame." ”
After speaking, he led Man Man out.
Su Wan saw that the matter handed over to her by her grandmother was messed up, and she was very anxious, and she was full of pleading: "Sister Jiang, it's my second sister who doesn't understand the rules, I'm here to apologize to you, can you ask your maid not to go to the front?" ”
Manman pouted and sobbed: "My hand hurts so much, I'm going to find my mother." ”
After speaking, she stretched out her hand, and Su Wan immediately took a cool breath when she saw it, only to see that her white and tender little hands had several scratches, and some of the wounds were bloodshot.
Yaya looked even more anxious, and left with a full man, and Su Wan had to follow quickly when she saw this.
Yan Niang listened uneasily to Mrs. Su talking and laughing with other female relatives, Mrs. Su shifted the topic to her, and she stopped talking after a perfunctory sentence. Wu Niangzi was the closest to her, and when she saw this, she asked, "Is Madame full of worries?" ”
Yan Niang nodded lightly.
Wu Niangzi comforted: "With the girl and the girl following, it will be fine." ”
As soon as her words fell, a child's cry came, and Yan Niang couldn't help but stand up. The wives and ladies present heard it, and everyone looked at each other worriedly.
Mrs. Su's face was a little ugly, she asked Mama Su to take a look at the situation, and after almost half a cup of tea, Mama Su came back, followed by Manman and Yaya.
Full of being led by Yaya and crying, Yan Niang panicked, and hurriedly stepped forward to ask, Yaya told what happened in Qingyu Courtyard before, and Yan Niang was annoyed when she heard it.
Yaya said again that Su Ping pushed Manman, and let Manman be injured, Yan Niang looked at her daughter's bruised little hand, and her eyes suddenly turned red. She softly comforted her daughter, got up and said to Mrs. Su: "Su Mansion has big rules, since we look down on our mother and daughter, let's go." ”
After speaking, he prepared to leave with Man Man and Yaya.
Mrs. Su couldn't let them go like this, and hurriedly apologized: "Mrs. Jiang is angry, it's all my Su family's fault." ”
Yan Niang was unmoved, Mrs. Su glanced at it and said: "Ling Qianjin injured her hand, you have to see a doctor, it just happens that there is a doctor in the house, why don't you let him diagnose and treat it first?" ”
Yan Niang suppressed her annoyance, but she still stayed for the time being, focusing on her daughter. The doctor came quickly, the full wound was not very serious, and he could not see water after rubbing the medicine, and it could be healed in a few days.
Then Mrs. Su asked people to bring Su Er's grandmother and Su Ping over, and scolded Su Er's grandmother in front of Yan Niang, making Su Ping apologize and punish her for a month.
Yan Niang looked at Mrs. Su's singing and writing with a cold face, her heart was full of disdain, she stayed in Su Mansion for half an hour and then took her daughter home. The next day, Mrs. Sue. Su Er's grandmother and daughter-in-law came to the door with gifts, and were sarcastically beaten by Jiang's mother with a gun and a stick, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had no face to continue to stay in Jiang's house.
In this way, the beam of the two families is concluded.
Yan Niang was afraid that a feud with the Su family would affect Jiang Yucheng, but Jiang Yucheng said: "My Jiang Yucheng's daughter is not something that anyone can bully. ”
Seeing that Yan Niang was worried, he reassured: "It's just a fictitious job bought with silver, and the Su family is not afraid." ”
Yan Niang saw that he really didn't care about the Su family, and the big stone in her heart fell. After that, Jiang Yucheng was full of love, and when people who didn't know saw it, they thought that the two were father and daughter.
On the tenth day of the seventh month, Yun finally replied, in which she proposed to transfer Xinyanfang to Wu Niangzi, and said that she only needed cash and did not own shares.
Yan Niang did as she wanted, and Wu Niangzi got the new Yan Fang and knotted the Yun family's cash silver. When it was Yan Niang's turn, Yan Niang only needed half of the cash, and the other half was folded into two dry shares.
The shop was under the name of Wu Niangzi, and Yan Niang was completely idle, and she stayed at home to raise her baby with good food and drink every day. At this time, she was almost five months old, but her belly was as big as seven months, Jiang's mother was not at ease and asked the doctor to come to check the pulse, and the doctor smiled after taking the pulse: "Congratulations to the old lady, the lady is pregnant with twins." ”
Jiang's mother was overjoyed when she heard this, and after being delighted, she asked in disbelief: "It's really twins?" ”
The doctor nodded, "Madame is in good health, and even the child in her belly is very healthy." ”
"What do you pay attention to when it comes to eating?" Jiang Mu asked worriedly.
The doctor replied: "The diet is no different from usual, just remember not to eat too much, so as to avoid the fetus being too big and difficult to give birth." ”
Mother Jiang nodded, taking the doctor's words to heart.
After learning that Yan Niang was pregnant with twins, Jiang's mother had a dream that night, she dreamed that she was standing in the courtyard of her house in Lingjia Village, and a white-bearded old man led two fat boys in.
She was about to ask who they were, when she saw two boys throw themselves into her arms, and the grandmother and grandmother kept screaming. When she looked up at the door, the old man with the white beard was nowhere to be seen.
After Jiang Mu woke up from her dream, she was stunned for a while before getting up. After eating the morning meal, she said to Yan Niang: "I had a good dream last night, I guess it was the ancestor of the Jiang family who appeared, and it happened that September 15 is your father-in-law's birthday, and when Cheng'er is resting, let's go back to Jiangjia Village." ”
Of course, Yan Niang had no opinion, and when Jiang Yucheng took a break, the family took a carriage back to Jiangjia Village. The Jiang family's house was empty and no one lived in it, and there was a musty smell in the house that could not be dissipated for a long time, Yan Niang smelled uncomfortable, and her stomach suddenly turned over again.
Li Zheng learned that Jiang Yucheng's family was back, and he was busy inviting him, Jiang Yucheng saw that Yan Niang was uncomfortable staying in the house, so he took them to Li Zheng's house to rest.
They rested at Lizheng's house for a while, and the family of four went to the grave of the Jiang family's ancestors to worship, and Jiang's mother chattered for a long time in front of Jiang's father's grave, and her eyes were red at the end, obviously crying.
Jiang Yucheng persuaded her twice, she said: "You don't know, my mother is happy, I want your father and the ancestors of the Jiang family to know that our Jiang family is going to import Ding this year." ”
Hearing this, Jiang Yucheng nodded, and then helped his mother into the carriage.
Yan Niang's belly was scary, Jiang Yucheng planned to go back to Lingjiang Town directly after worshipping his ancestors, but as soon as the carriage drove out of the village, he was stopped.
It was none other than an aunt from the Jiang family who was in five suits, and the aunt was wearing a cloak and exuding an embarrassed look, kneeling on the ground and shouting to let Jiang Yucheng and Jiang Zhixian make the decision for her.
Before Jiang Yucheng could ask her, a large group of people followed, all of whom were relatives of the Jiang family. Jiang Yucheng had no choice but to ask Uncle Yan to drive the car back to Lizheng's house, and let his aunt follow.
"Ask Lord Jiang to be the master of the people's wife." At Lizheng's house, the aunt of the family knelt down again, and after kneeling, she kowtowed a few times.
Jiang Yucheng personally helped her up, and asked in a slow voice: "Fifth aunt, what happened, you slowly talk to me." ”
The fifth aunt looked at him but suddenly burst into tears, the more she cried, the more excited she became, she couldn't say a complete sentence clearly, Jiang Yucheng waited patiently for the fifth aunt to tell the truth.
The fifth aunt remarried to Jiangjia Village, and when she got married, she also brought a daughter, and now that the daughter has grown up, the fifth aunt's mother-in-law has another idea, and the husband of the fifth aunt, Jiang Wushu, will give her stepdaughter to a rich man in the next village as a concubine.
This matter was originally hidden from the fifth aunt, but the conversation between the mother and son was heard by the second son of the fifth aunt, and he quietly told the fifth aunt, and the fifth aunt quarreled with her husband at that time, and resolutely disagreed with them to send their daughter to be a concubine.
When the rich man came to pick up people, they locked the fifth aunt in the house, and only released her after they were picked up.
The fifth aunt was worried about her daughter, so she ran to the rich man's house overnight to bring her back, but was beaten by the rich man's house slave, and the fifth aunt returned home in despair. Fifth Uncle Jiang found out that she had gone to the rich man's house and locked her up again. Her son was not allowed to come near her.
Today, Jiang Yucheng came back with his mother, wife and daughter, and the fifth aunt heard her mother-in-law and her concubine talking a few words, and tried her best to escape, in order to let Jiang Yucheng administer justice for her.
After the fifth aunt said this, her mother-in-law Hu Pozi pointed at her angrily and scolded: "I, your daughter came to my Jiang family when she was three years old, my son raised her with good food and clothing, and now you have sent her to live a good life, you actually said that I and Wulang sold your daughter, it is really a white-eyed wolf who doesn't know what to do, and the next thing is a tattered thing." ”
"You sold my daughter and reversed black and white, even if I fight for this cheap life today, I have to seek justice for Peach Blossom." The fifth aunt stared at her mother-in-law and husband with a determined look.
Jiang Yucheng's gaze went back and forth on the fifth aunt, Jiang Fifth Uncle and Hu Pozi several times, and finally he called Li Zheng to come forward and asked him to go to the neighboring village to bring the rich man and Peach Blossom over.
