After breakfast the next day, Princess Pingwu and her husband took their son and daughter-in-law to the Wu family.

The ancestral house of Wu Jiajing is in the south of the city, a very large house.

The gate shows a kind of quaintness, and two housekeepers and two mothers-in-law are waiting at the door.

Gao Zhao looked at the relationship table last night, the head of the Wu family is sixty-five years old, and the Empress Dowager Jian'an is his cousin. One of the nephews of the Empress Dowager Jian'an has long passed away, and the three nephews and grandchildren are still living in the ancestral house, and the highest grade is only six grades.

A generation of emperors and a generation of ministers, a generation of queens is also a generation of prosperity.

Wu Yuma has a high seniority, and he is the cousin of the Empress Dowager Jian'an, and the current patriarch has to call him Uncle Congtang.

Therefore, Gao Zhao and his wife are the same generation as the white-haired patriarch.

Walking into the lobby of the front yard, Patriarch Wu greeted him with a group of middle-aged men at the door.

Patriarch Wu stepped forward a few steps, bowed and saluted: "Uncle Cousin, Your Royal Highness the Princess, you are not welcomed." ”

Wu Yuma stretched out his hand to help him up, "Patriarch, you don't have to be polite, bring Xiao'er to recognize your relatives today, the family doesn't have to be like this." ”

"Inside, please."

Entering the house, the horse and the princess sat on the seat, and Wu Changliang and Gao Zhao stood beside them.

Patriarch Wu took the group of people who came in to salute again.

"Patriarch, you also sit down, it won't be finished for a while and a half, isn't the patriarch's legs bad? It's too hard to stand. ”

The patriarch retreated for a long time, and Wu Yuma directly ordered his subordinates to move a square chair for him, he just sitted, but he didn't sit steadily, leaned forward, and held the armrest to maintain balance.

Then Wu Changliang Gao Zhao gave the patriarch a salute and called his cousin, and the patriarch gave a greeting gift.

Wu Changliang and Gao Zhao sat down, and a group of middle-aged people saluted the two of them, calling them uncle and aunt.

Gao Zhao felt awkward in his heart, the middle-aged people stood on both sides after the salute, and a group of young people came in from outside the door, calling the princess and his wife great-uncle and grandmother, Wu Changliang and Gao Zhao are uncles and grandfathers and uncles and grandmothers.

There are more than a dozen younger generations, and those who are present today are all grandchildren, and Gao Zhao didn't remember any of them.

Later, a middle-aged man said that the woman was in another large courtyard and was going to greet the princess.

A servant woman led the princess and her daughter-in-law to the other side, and at the door was an elderly woman with a group of women waiting for her.

It was the patriarch's wife, Wu Meng, and her hair was black and shiny, and the folds on her face could be seen to be sixty upwards.

Entering the house and sitting down, Wu Mengshi greeted the princess first, and Gao Zhao greeted her.

Then just like over there just now, there were a group of middle-aged women, a group of young women, and nearly ten little ladies.

They all looked at Gao Zhao secretly, Gao Zhao looked at her uncle and grandmother, who was about the same age as her, and couldn't care about complaining in his heart, so he kept smiling.

It's not a confession, it's her show, others can remember her, Gao Zhao is a person who doesn't remember.

No, I only remembered the patriarch's wife, I didn't have a single gray hair at such an age, and there was no hair dye cream in ancient times, so I really wanted to ask what I could eat to avoid gray hair.

Princess Pingwu talked to Wu Meng's clan and asked about the situation in the clan, Gao Zhao thought that her mother-in-law might only be familiar with the patriarch's wife, and she spoke directly to other people, and she didn't call them by name.

Everyone is respectful.

At this time, there was a commotion at the door, everyone looked at the door, Wu Mengshi was in a hurry, and hurriedly let her eldest daughter-in-law out.

Gao Zhao saw a woman's face annoyed, and the other women all looked at her and hurriedly avoided her.

Princess Pingwu was displeased, knowing that it was a matter within the clan, and she was not easy to ask.

Gao Zhao remembered that the person he had just introduced was Wu Wang, the eldest nephew and daughter-in-law of the Empress Dowager Jian'an, if the nephew of the Empress Dowager Jian'an was alive, the patriarch might be this one.

Wu Mengshi saw Princess Pingwu's black face, and hurriedly smiled: "A girl slapped the teacup and made His Highness laugh." ”

Princess Pingwu didn't debunk her reason, how could a hairy subordinate be assigned to come to the front yard today.

As soon as Wu Mengshi wanted to find a conversation, he heard a sharp female voice outside: "Ask the princess to save my brother." ”

Princess Pingwu was about to serve the teacup and put it down with a bang.

"Bring it in!"

Wu Wang's face turned pale, and he knelt down and said, "Your Highness, the ignorant concubines in the nephew's and daughter-in-law's courtyard are making trouble, and I will send them away." ”

The patriarch's wife glared at the man angrily, Princess Pingwu originally didn't want to take care of other people's family affairs, one was the princess who begged outside, and the ignorant concubine.

I remembered that when I was a child, a concubine once said this to her, saying that she was just an ignorant and arrogant princess.

Princess Pingwu coldly but: "Bring it in!" I want to see what an ignorant maid she is! ”

"Your Highness will atone for your sins, and your nephew and granddaughter-in-law will deal with it herself."

Mama Zhou, who was standing behind Princess Pingwu, walked out of the door and shouted, "Bring it in!" ”

Wu Mengshi didn't dare to sit down, got up and stood next to him, looking at Wu Wang's family, he was angry and hateful, and said in his heart that he deserved it, how could he not say that this was a matter in his own courtyard, and others couldn't control it.

Princess Pingwu rarely comes to the clan, and it happened that there was an accident in her courtyard when she came today.

Wu Wang's family relied on her room to be the emperor's nephew, and never put the patriarch in his eyes, this is good, hit the muzzle, deserve it.

In came a little lady of thirteen or fourteen, dressed in inferior clothes, and her eyes were full of grief and indignation.

She knelt down and kowtowed, raised her head and said: "Your Royal Highness the Princess, please ask Her Royal Highness the Princess to save my brother, my brother is dying, my mother said that he is too squeamish, and it is good to be hungry for two meals, but it has been three days, I beg Her Royal Highness the Princess to ask my brother to have a doctor." ”

Wu Wang knelt and twisted his face and said angrily: "Nonsense! I invited a doctor, it's your brother who doesn't drink medicine, what kind of mistreatment did I treat you as a mother-in-law? Look at what you are wearing, just like your sister-in-law, I raised you to be a white-eyed wolf! ”

Princess Pingwu glanced at Mama Zhou, Mama Zhou stepped back, went out and said to a housekeeper's daughter-in-law, "Go see the patient first." ”

Wu Wang turned around and knelt down and kowtowed to the princess, raising his head with tears on his face.

"Her Royal Highness the princess, she is talking nonsense, there are three aunts in the nephew's and daughter-in-law's courtyard, two concubines, and three concubines, and the nephew and daughter-in-law have never been harsh, Mu Niang, she is talking nonsense."

Gao Zhao paid attention to the person named Mu Niang, and she didn't refute a word.

Straight and upright on his knees, his body is thin, but not weak. There are tears in his eyes, his expression is stubborn, and there is a kind of resoluteness to die.

Princess Pingwu said coldly: "All retreat." ”

Mu Niang kowtowed and withdrew and knelt down in the courtyard, and the people in the clan house hurried out, no one dared to speak, and they didn't dare to look at each other.

Wu Mengshi pulled Wu Wang up and pushed her out.

"Meng, you stay." Pingwu called the patriarch's wife.

When she returned, she would not dare to sit down, but would have stood.

"Let's talk about it."

"Wu Wang's family is the eldest daughter-in-law of the long house, and she gave birth to three children in a row, and she took the eldest son born by the concubine to raise, and gave birth to the eldest son five years later, and returned the concubine to the concubine, and then ...... After that......"

Wu Mengshi couldn't go on, proving that she knew what Wu Wangshi did.

Gao Zhao understood that after his wife had a biological son, she treated the eldest son who was raised by her side harshly, and the concubine boldly begged the princess today.

And the people in the clan know that they let the Wu Wang clan act.
