In the former study, Pingyuan Hou was drinking wine.

The wine on the table, the two beautiful girls beside him, the steward just bought it, and it hasn't been used a few times, and it is delicious and delicate.

Although the sun was in full bloom outside, the Plains Marquis was already a little drunk.

Good wine, beautiful women, what do you want in life.

"Mrs. Xu is here......" the little guy at the door said.

Pingyuan Hou raised his head blankly, and Mrs. Xu helped the girl into the door.

Although the Xu family has been defeated, I saw that she had a phoenix hairpin on her head, a silk dress on her body, and even the girls around her were dressed decently.

People live with a face, trees live with a skin, no matter how poor and sour they are in their bones, this outside system, smashing pots and selling iron, has to be supported.

"Brother, why did you drink like this in broad daylight?" Mrs. Xu said, with a hint of disgust on her face.

Although my brother is my brother, this brother is really not angry, he doesn't care about everything, he only drinks flower wine. In addition, he is stingy with himself, and he refuses to borrow some silver.

Even if the brother and sister were affectionate when they were young, they have long since been scattered.

Silver is the most important, and when my sister-in-law gives silver, I naturally want to kiss my sister-in-law.

"Why are you here?" Pingyuan asked, waved his hand to the girls beside him, and motioned for them to retreat.

Mrs. Cheng is a housekeeper, and the amount of silver he can touch is limited, so naturally he has no money to lend to Mrs. Xu.

But there is still a brother-sister relationship, and although I was surprised to see Mrs. Xu, I was still happy.

The two drinking girls retreated, Mrs. Xu sat down, and said impatiently: "It's not Dalang's marriage yet, I'm going to be annoyed to death." ”

"Huh?" Pingyuan Hou didn't think about it for a while.

"It's the eldest man in my family, born to the former aunt and betrothed to the second mother." Mrs. Xu said.

She married into the Xu family that year, and she was not pregnant for two years, so she had to stop her aunt's medicine and give birth to her eldest son, Xu Changqing.

Although the Xu family has nothing to fight for now, and she herself has a son and a daughter, this eldest son is still a thorn in her side, and she feels annoyed when she looks at it.

Pingyuan Hou finally thought about it and said: "Since he has a marriage contract with Erniang, then it is enough to get married, what's the trouble." ”

Since Aunt Zhang became a fat pig, he has completely forgotten about this cousin and Cheng Erniang's daughter.

In fact, it was the other children, and he didn't remember much.

However, it's always children, since it was mentioned, it was a family affair set by Mrs. Cheng back then, and they became relatives together, and it was over.

As for whether she has been married in the past or not, that is her own business, Pingyuan Hou raised her until she was out of the cabinet, and her love and righteousness have been enough.

"No, this marriage won't work." Mrs. Xu said categorically, "I came here today to withdraw from the marriage." ”

"Huh?" Pingyuan Hou was stunned, "Okay, why do you want to withdraw from the marriage." ”

"Erniang's eight characters are not good, Tiansha Lone Star is fateful, Kefu Kezi." Mrs. Xu said, with a hint of hatred on her face, "I was dissatisfied with this marriage back then, and it was my mother who pressed it hard." ”

She was really dissatisfied with this family affair back then, she didn't like Aunt Zhang, she didn't like Cheng Erniang, and she hated Xu Changqing even more.

It's hateful to let two people you don't like marry, and then come to her disgusting.

But she thought back then, since Mrs. Cheng loved Cheng Erniang so much, when Cheng Erniang got married, she would definitely give more dowry. The dowry of the Xu family, how could his aunt and mother-in-law share a share, so he reluctantly agreed to the marriage.

Now that Mrs. Cheng has passed away, the property has long been divided. Mrs. Cheng directly promised her that as long as she came forward to return the family affairs, the five hundred taels of silver tickets would be taken away immediately.

Although five hundred taels of silver is not much, in order to fight the autumn wind for a long time, it is cost-effective to quit a family business that she hates.

"Eight characters are not good??" Pingyuan Hou listened with a puzzled face, "Didn't you get together when you decided to marry, how could it be inappropriate?" ”

"This is going to ask my mother, and I only found out when I met the girl next to my mother a few days ago. In order to be able to marry this family business, my mother deliberately bought off the heavenly master and changed the eight characters of Erniang. Mrs. Xu said, her tone sour again, "Erniang's eight characters are born with decay, and my mother has known it for a long time." Otherwise, with the strength of her mother's love for Erniang back then, how could she fall in love with a little concubine of the Xu family, and she had to look for it in her sister-in-law. ”

These words wronged Mrs. Cheng, and now the Xu family is defeated, but when the marriage was decided, the Xu family was still very prosperous.

Especially Mrs. Xu has not been able to give birth to a son-in-law, and Mrs. Cheng also feels that she can't give birth. There is no sister-in-law, and the eldest son is naturally a baby.

It's a kiss and a kiss, which can be described as a good match.

"But ......" Pingyuan Hou was very hesitant and said, "It's always a family affair set by my mother, and it's not good to retire." If you don't like Erniang, after getting married, you can separate them and pass them alone, so why quit your family. ”

Mrs. Xu became even more angry when she heard this, and glared at Pingyuan Hou and said: "The Xu family has been separated, your brother-in-law died early, and Changlin is only six years old, I still count on this concubine to support me for the façade." I have divided them, and my orphans and widows will be eaten by the people of the Xu family. ”

Although she was extremely disgusted with Xu Changqing, she never thought of kicking him out, not because of her mother's kindness, but because there was an adult man in the family who supported the façade.

However, Xu Changqing's marriage can't be so early. This is also the reason why she has never mentioned the marriage between Xu Changqing and Cheng Erniang, and married him a daughter-in-law.

The best thing is that Xu Changqing has never married, and has been making cattle and horses for the family until his biological son reaches adulthood. When the time comes, I will find an excuse to drive Xu Changqing out, so that I can be completely clean.

Pingyuan Hou suddenly stopped talking, orphans and widows are not easy to stand on, there is an adult man at home, no matter the concubine, he can always hold up the door, and he will not be bullied by the rogue elders in the clan.

Before Mrs. Xu's biological son Xu Changlin was not an adult, it was really difficult to separate Xu Changqing.

"My life is miserable...... Mrs. Xu said and cried, "I married a man with a bag, and I didn't even get into the show." When the family property was divided, he couldn't grab the big head, and he didn't even live long. What am I doing alive, I should have been hit headfirst. ”

While crying, his hands were still slapping the table, and the wine glasses were slapped to the ground.

"Alas......" Pingyuan Hou sighed and said, "Don't listen to the nonsense of the previous subordinates, maybe it was made up." ”

"Where is the arrangement, I personally went to Baiyun Temple to ask the Taoist to see each other." Mrs. Xu said, taking out the eight-character paper from her purse, "Look at it yourself, whether the eight-character is declining, and you were born to be a Ke person." ”

Pingyuan Hou took it and took a look, and sure enough, it was the fate of the Tiansha Lone Star, which was not suitable for keeping at home, and it was best to send it to the temple.

"My mother is really partial, and her niece gave birth to a lonely star, but she kept it a secret and wanted to stuff it into my house. Am I not her own child, that Aunt Zhang is. Mrs. Xu said indignantly.

Mrs. Cheng's partiality is real, and her resentment is also true.

She is the third child, the first sister and the first brother, neither the first child nor the son. In addition, she was born with a difficult birth, and Mrs. Cheng was a little cold to her.

Later, Aunt Zhang came, the orphan daughter of her mother's family, and immediately got the love of Mrs. Cheng. At that time, the eldest sister had already married, and Aunt Zhang was determined to seduce Pingyuan Hou and please him in every possible way, so naturally she would not compete with him.

But Mrs. Xu and Aunt Zhang are only one year apart, and they have to compare everything and fight for everything.

Aunt Zhang didn't have much IQ, and Mrs. Xu was even more mentally retarded, so the two fought evenly and formed a lot of grudges.

Later, Aunt Zhang wanted to squeeze out Mrs. Cheng to take the position, and Mrs. Xu was still anxious for a long time, but fortunately, Mrs. Cheng won, and Aunt Zhang became an aunt, which really made her happy for a long time.

"What are you talking about, complaining about your mother?" Pingyuan Hou scolded.

Although Mrs. Xu's heart was full of resentment, she didn't dare to say it in front of her brother, but said: "I have retired from this family business, and I can't let such a scourge enter my family's door." ”

"But......" Pingyuan Hou still hesitated.

Mrs. Xu said: "No one knew about the engagement, and I quietly retreated, and I didn't know it." What's more, the situation in the Plains Hou Mansion is just right now, if you hurt Erniang, you can find her relatives again, and ensure that you are stronger than my family. What the Xu family is like now, you don't know yet. ”

reminded Pingyuan Hou, not that he felt sorry for Cheng Erniang, and hoped that Cheng Erniang could marry better.

But for him, the marriage of children is trouble. Since the family affairs have been decided, it is more troublesome to get together and marry in the past, and then to marry after withdrawing from the family.

But as Mrs. Xu said, now the Pingyuan Hou Mansion is just right, and she doesn't have to worry about her daughter not being able to get married. It's easy to call an official matchmaker, and it's easy to get married.

"Well, since you're so insistent, then retreat." Pingyuan Hou said, otherwise Mrs. Xu would be crying and making trouble in front of him, and it would be annoying.

If Cheng Erniang is really a lone star, her brother is indeed not good at cheating her sister.

Mrs. Xu immediately stopped her tears and said, "It's better to choose a day than to hit the day, I'll send someone to find the matchmaker now, and I will withdraw the marriage today." ”

"Don't be in such a hurry." Pingyuan Hou couldn't help but say.

Mrs. Xu said: "It just so happens that I am here, and it is convenient to withdraw from my relatives." Besides, Da Lang is nineteen years old, and I also want to tell him about his family affairs as soon as possible, Changlin is too young, and I still have to count on him. ”

Pingyuan Hou listened reasonably, and said, "Then retreat." ”

With Pingyuan Hou's personal promise, Mrs. Xu immediately called someone in.

She had already agreed with Mrs. Cheng, and the steward had already prepared, and in less than an hour, the marriage letter of the two families had been dissolved.

Mrs. Xu saw that the matter was over, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief, but said: "Brother, I didn't say it, although I said that it was my own daughter, but Erniang's life is so hard, you always keep her at home, I'm worried." ”

"What can I do then?" Pingyuan Hou said.

Mrs. Xu said: "According to me, it is better to send her to live in the family temple for a few months, and then take advantage of this time to find her relatives quickly, and marry her into someone else's family." ”

Pingyuan Hou felt reasonable, nodded and said, "What you said is reasonable, it is appropriate to do this." ”
