Chapter 57 is filling in the house

Speaking of Aunt Qi, Pei Shuren frowned and asked, "But the concubine who rushed in that day and blocked Chu Huajin's body?" It is said that when the three brothers came to "beat their aunt" that day, Aunt Qi rushed over to block it, and was slapped in public by Chu Huajin. Chengdu:

Shen smiled and said, "It's her." She is the eldest daughter of Dingnanhou, who was married to your eldest brother-in-law, and later ......, it is said that she has never married, and their family has no way to have children, so she begged Lao Ning Yuanhou and promised to give your eldest brother-in-law a concubine. At that time, the Chu family still felt guilty about her, so they gave a dowry seriously, and went to Shuntian Mansion to get a file, and became a good concubine in a fair way. "It's just that the matter of giving a dowry is not in accordance with the rules, only a few relevant people in the Ningyuan Marquis Mansion and the Dingnan Marquis Mansion know, and the people outside don't know.

The Shen family also heard about this from Zhao's mother, who gave a dowry gift from the Marquis of Ningyuan's mansion. Mother Zhao is Pei Shufan's companion, and the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Dingnan Mansion entered the Marquis Mansion of Ningyuan as a concubine, which was handled by Pei Shufan, and of course Mother Zhao is familiar with these things.

When Pei Shuren heard this, he also sneered: "I remembered that this matter was caused by my sister." It's just that the two sons and aunts in the Marquis of Ningyuan's mansion are too rampant, and my sister has no choice but to raise another opponent to come in and distract them. If it weren't for this Aunt Qi entering the house, my sister wouldn't have been able to give birth to Yi'er and Qianqian. ”

The Shen family didn't know the ins and outs of these things. However, she is the same person as Pei Shufan, she grew up under the same upbringing, she knows the major affairs of the court, and she can talk to her husband on weekdays.

After listening to Pei Shuren's explanation, Shen was silent for a long time before he sighed deeply and said, "Big sister, it's really not easy. ”

Pei Shuren pretended not to care, turned his head and wiped his face with his sleeve, not wanting Shen to see him cry again.

Out of the corner of his eye, Shen caught a glimpse of Pei Shuren being sad, and he felt sad in his heart, so he hurriedly looked at the account book again, and said, "The matter of the fourth sister's dowry has to be discussed and discussed. The marquis of Ningyuan's mansion used the dowry of the concubine's room, which was to make it clear that he slapped our Pei family in the face. But if we want to stand up for the fourth sister, and we are worried that our mother will feel uncomfortable, it is really difficult. ”

Pei Shuren's mind calmed down, and after thinking about it casually, he got up and smiled at Shen: "Otherwise, you can talk back to the lady and eldest brother-in-law of the Marquis of Ningyuan's mansion and ask them whether to marry the house or take a concubine." If it is a concubine, our Pei family will not dare to disobey the will of the queen, and we can't afford to lose this person. Ask them if they deliberately wanted to slap the queen in the face? ”

"If you fill the house, they use the etiquette of a concubine to welcome the relatives, is this a slap in our face, or a slap in the face of the queen? - Simply ask them again if they have a grudge against the queen. In this way, the left is also to hit the queen's face, and the right is also to hit the queen's face, they are relatives of the emperor and can resist. We are serious eunuchs, but we don't dare to get along with the queen. ”

Shen had never seen her husband look so sharp and sharp, so she couldn't help opening her cherry mouth slightly, staring at him a little distractedly.

Pei Shuren turned around and saw the always shrewd and capable Shen Shi looking at him in a daze, hurriedly glanced at himself, and asked strangely, "What's wrong?" But what's wrong? ”

Shen stood up in a hurry, walked to Pei Shuren's side, gently helped him straighten his robe, patted his left shoulder again, and disguised: "It seems that there is some gray here." ”

Shen is tall, only half a head shorter than the tall Pei Shuren.

Pei Shuren smiled and stretched out his right hand, pressed Shen's hand on his left shoulder, lowered his head and wanted to speak, but he felt that his chest was full and he couldn't say a word. I had to pat her hand, turn around and go out.

Shen stood silently in the room, looking at the direction where Pei Shuren was far away, and then he gathered his thoughts and asked Caiyun and Caihuan to call in.

Caiyun and Caihuan have felt different since they followed the Shen family to the capital. The eldest young master never went to their house, and he no longer treated them kindly on weekdays. Even when he commanded men to serve, he did not call them to come any more.

After hearing what Shen said about asking them to go out to match people, the two knelt on the ground, bowed their heads, and were speechless for a long time.

The Shen family ordered someone to take the identity deed of the two of them, and another person gave a silver ticket of three hundred taels, and said, "It has not been easy for you all these years. Take the money out, find a good family to marry, have children in the future, and have a dependency for the rest of your life. ”

Caiyun took the deed and the silver ticket, tears dripped down to the ground, bowed his head and choked up: "Grandma Da Shao, but the slave maid annoyed the Da Young Master, so he wanted to drive us out?" ”

Caihuan on the side also cried: "Don't hide it from the young grandmother, the two of us are wasted." - Even if you get out now, what hope is there? I also hope that the eldest and youngest grandmothers will be merciful and leave us in the house, so that we can be maids, cook and eat ourselves, and support ourselves. ”

Shen was a little embarrassed, but he couldn't tell the truth to the two maids, so he said kindly: "I know all your concerns. I asked the master to invite the best doctor in the capital to come over for you, and Ming'er will carefully check the pulse for you and take a look. You are still young, and you are not a big problem, and you can be cured. ”

Caiyun and Caihuan were suspicious, but they didn't dare to talk to Shen, so they had to kowtow to her and go down to pack their things.

On the second day, Shen really invited a doctor to the mansion and gave Caiyun and Caihuan a "look at the disease". The doctor got Shen's advice, so he naturally explained the "symptoms" of the two thoroughly, and prescribed a decoction, telling them to drink once a day in the morning and evening, and after drinking for a month, they would naturally be "cured". Although Caiyun and Caihuan were skeptical, after drinking the medicine for a few days, they felt a little different and more confident.

After sending Caiyun and Caihuan out, the Shen family was busy with the marriage of the fourth sister Pei Shufen. She first returned all the dowries from the Marquis of Ningyuan's mansion, and then deliberately made a big show of the reason for the dowry, which made the whole city know.

The lady of the Marquis of Ningyuan Mansion originally deliberately used the dowry of the concubine to show the anger she received in the Pei family last time. also deliberately sent Pei Shufan's companion to give the dowry, just to let them know that they would rather go to the Hou Mansion and not take the concubines of the Pei family in their eyes. Unexpectedly, the Pei family's people countered the army and carried out the Buddha of the queen's mother, which made Mrs. Tai immediately embarrassed.

Ningyuan Hou Chuhua only then knew that Mrs. Tai had made a stupid move, although he knew that Mrs. Tai was probably to take revenge on the Pei family's previous disrespect to her, so she deliberately humiliated the Pei family on the dowry. Just doing this, Mrs. Tai forgot that the marriage was given by the queen herself. deliberately embarrassed the Pei family, but in fact, he didn't take the queen in his eyes.

"How could I have thought so much?" Mrs. Tai angrily threw a tantrum in the house.

Chu Hua smiled bitterly and persuaded: "Mother, I told you a long time ago, hurry up and handle this matter properly, why bother with another matter?" ”

The Pei family is all human spirits, and they have already passed this matter to the ears of the supervising Yushi through a good lady of the imperial history. Everyone now knows that the Marquis of Ningyuan's Mansion not only deliberately humiliated the Pei family, but also knows that in the Marquis of Ningyuan's Mansion, there is a concubine who has given a "dowry".

In the past few days, some officials have begun to rub their hands, planning to ask Ningyuan Marquis Chuhua to "take a concubine as his wife". The Chu family is a descendant family, and "taking a concubine as a wife" is not only a violation, but also a hindrance to the queen's mother.

The things in the court are all linked one by one. If you don't have the ability, don't put a trap on others.

Mrs. Tai couldn't help but say, "If Shu Fan is here, how can there be these troubles?" ”

After listening to Mrs. Tai's words, Chu Huajin could only continue to smile bitterly.

Mrs. Tai couldn't, so she had to keep her old face and go to Pei's house again.

The next day, Mrs. Tai took the second lady Huang and the new dowry to Pei's house and asked Master Pei and Mrs. Xia for their guilt.

"The lord of the family, the wife of the family, this time it is really a misunderstanding. You know, since we beat our old marquis, our house has been worse every day. My second daughter-in-law is also just in charge, and she hasn't fully started yet. There are so many things inside and outside here, she lost her broom, made a dustpan, accidentally made a mistake, and made the wrong hiring, and there are also some. I also hope that the lord and wife of the in-laws, for the sake of her kindness to do the wrong thing, don't embarrass her. ”

The second lady Huang endured her shame and anger, knelt in front of Master Pei and Mrs. Xia of the Pei family, and said with a red face: "It's all juniors, it's annoying to the two old people." ”

The people of the Pei family saw that the lady of the Marquis of Ningyuan Mansion actually took her second daughter-in-law to apologize, and they couldn't say anything.

Mrs. Xia sighed, personally helped the second lady Huang to get up, and comforted her: "It's none of your business." - It's not easy to be a daughter-in-law. ”

When these words reached Huang's heart, she couldn't help but throw herself into Mrs. Xia's arms and burst into tears.

When the lady of the Marquis of Ningyuan saw it, she couldn't help but be even more embarrassed, so she got up and said goodbye with the support of her maid Huqin: "Since the dowry has been delivered, we won't bother." A month later will be a good day, and we will have to hurry up and prepare for it. ”

Seeing that this lady was talking nonsense again, Shen Shi hurriedly stood up, and while sending them out, he seemed to be casually mentioning: "It is actually very easy to get married in Rexiao. - Everything is complete, and there is no need to hang a red cloak. ”

Mrs. Tai remembered that Pei Shufan had just been there for less than a month, and they were in a hurry to get married in Rexiao, so they couldn't hang a red cloak. Even the worship hall had to be carried out in Pei Shufan's mourning hall, and tea was served to her tablet. ——The filling of the house is inferior, and the filling of the house married in the filial piety is only one piece higher than the concubine's room.

After sending off the group of people from the Marquis of Ningyuan's mansion, Shen went back to look at the new dowry sent by Mrs. Tai, and saw that it was exchanged for five thousand taels of silver, and thirty pieces of jewelry and satin clothing, which was half less than Pei Shufan at that time, but more than twice as much as Aunt Qi.

"Let Miss Fourth come over and see the dowry." Shen instructed that there were still some matters related to marriage in Rexiao, and they had to be explained clearly to Pei Shufen.

Pei Shufen came over to take a look happily, with a smile at the corners of her eyes and eyebrows.

Shen kept shaking his head and sighing in his heart, and slowly explained to her all the shortcomings of Rexiao's marriage.

Pei Shufen's face was really gloomy, and after a while, she asked, "Sister-in-law, you really can't even wear a red wedding dress?" ”

Shen replied calmly: "If you wait until you are filial, there is naturally no taboo. Everything will be the same as the etiquette of marrying a wife. But in the heat of filial piety, you have to follow the rules of filial piety. And only your hijab, which can be red. The inside of the new house should be covered with plain colors. ”

Pei Shufen lowered her eyes, sat there, and walked out of her mind for a long time before she said quietly: "Who called me a concubine?" ”

When Shen heard this, his heart moved, he got up and went to the inner room to take out a copy of the "Book of Rites" of the Great Qi Dynasty, handed it to Pei Shufen, and said with a straight face: "Fourth sister, this has nothing to do with whether you are a concubine or a concubine." Just look at this "Book of Rites" to know that this is a rule handed down by our ancestors, and it is not something we have come up with to deliberately embarrass you. ”

Pei Shufen was told by Shen's heart, her face turned red, she reached out and took the yellowed "Book of Rites", bowed her head to Shen, and went out.

Back in his house, Pei Shufen carefully flipped through the book of "Book of Rites" and found that Rexiao married and filled the house, and it was indeed these rules, and he couldn't help but regret it a little. But thinking about it again, although she doesn't look good on her face, she is married anyway, and she just has a lining.

Shen saw that Pei Shufen was only depressed for a few days, so he happily prepared to get married, but he was angry and funny, no longer sad for her, and wholeheartedly helped her prepare the dowry.

For Pei Shufen, the Pei family also accompanied 5,000 taels of silver to press the box money, as well as 30 pieces of jewelry, silk and clothing, as well as two small farms in the suburbs of Beijing, plus the dowry of the Marquis of Ningyuan's mansion, and also collected 60 taels of dowry, and carried it into the Marquis of Ningyuan's mansion the day before the wedding.
