There were not many people waiting in Chengsong Garden, and at this time, they all stood in the courtyard with their heads bowed like cicadas. Ding Rou followed the eldest lady closely, and before she opened the curtain, she heard movement inside, "Mother, you are angry, and your son knows his mistakes, and he knows his mistakes." ”

It's Second Master Ding, the eldest lady mentioned that her heart was halfway down when she mentioned her throat, and Ding Rou lowered her eyelids, why wasn't it Master Ding. Entering the door, the second wife had already arrived with Ding Yu and Ding Yun, and the second wife was blessed with tears in her eyes, and said softly: "Sister-in-law." ”

After Ding Rou and Ding Shu glanced at each other, they accompanied the eldest lady to stand behind the screen, and on the warm kang sat Mrs. Tai, the two brothers of the Ding family, Ding Dong and Ding Liang knelt honestly, and vaguely saw through the screen that the two masters did not have the usual bearing calmly, and the lady was angry, no matter how big the official was, they had to be honest and obey orders. Filial piety, which has been inherited for thousands of years, is impeached by the imperial history for not being filial, and the career will come to an end.

Second Master Ding frequently kowtowed to admit his mistake, and Mrs. Tai snorted coldly, "Are you still wrong?" ”

"The son is guilty."

"Hmph, the Ding family's face has made you lose everything."

"Mother."

Ding Er has always been dashing, quite the style of Jiangnan literati, he likes wind and snow, he once went to high school to explore flowers, the family business is supported by the eldest brother, he himself has no intention of career, hang an idle job, or write poems and paintings in the house, or go out to meet friends, and he can be regarded as a famous literati in the capital.

Because Emperor Taizu was afraid of the family's control of the government, there was an unwritten rule in the officialdom that brothers and fathers with the same surname could not hold important positions at the same time.

The important position means that you can't enter the cabinet at the same time, or do six books at the same time, and the two brothers of the Ding family can't meet this standard.

At this time, the door curtain was opened again, and Ding Min, who had been recuperating after sending his mother to the funeral, walked in, weak and beautiful, Chu Chu was moving, the watery eyes were full of sadness, Ding Min was blessed, and said softly: "Mother, second aunt." ”

The second wife cared about the movement inside, and didn't have time to pay attention to Ding Min, and the eldest lady said lightly: "Why did you make trouble?" When I was sick, I rested in the house. ”

Ding Min covered his mouth with a silk handkerchief and coughed lightly, and said softly: "I heard that my father, the second uncle was punished, where can I stay?" ”

Ding Min looked at Ding Rou, and there was a little more kindness in his eyes, "Sixth sister." ”

Ding Rou's back tightened, Ding Min was even more tricky than before, and bent her knees: "Third sister." ”

Ding Min stood beside Ding Rou and said in a low voice: "When I get better, I will make amends to you and Aunt Liu, don't resent Auntie." ”

Saying this, Ding Min's tears rolled down, the silk handkerchief wiped her eyes, Ding Rou looked at Ding Min's behavior coldly, she had changed her path, Ding Rou looked away, she was more curious about how the second master provoked Mrs. Tai than Ding Min.

Ding Min pursed his lips, lowered his eyelids meekly, and his hatred flashed, it should be the second uncle who is preparing to take a concubine, it is said that she is the sister of the side concubine of King Chuling, in her previous life, Mrs. Tai was angry and sick for this matter, and told her that there would be no concubines in the Ding family...

"Concubine, you can figure it out? The Ding family has been scholarly for generations, and when the dynasty is clear, who made the concubine? You... This unfilial son, you have read all your poems, books, and music to the belly of a dog? How did I raise you rebel. ”

Mrs. Tai beat her chest and said, "Come on, bring the rattan, I..." I want to teach unfilial sons, forget their ancestors, and say that it is you, where will you go to the door of the Ding family? Hang out with the family of merchants? ”

"Take the rattan."

The girl's mother has escaped out, the house is full of masters, no one dares to move, the second wife is crying, she is full of grievances, for the second master, she counts left and right, works hard to manage the housework, and serves her husband thoughtfully.

Although he was cold to his concubines, he tried his best to arrange their marriage. The second wife has no sister-in-law, and her confidence is insufficient, which girl does the second master value, the second wife will do what he wants, but she accepts the concubine, which is the face of the wife, once the concubine gives birth to a son, although she is also called her mother, it is always different from the general concubine.

is also a woman, although the eldest wife usually has a secret fight with the second wife, but after being a concubine for so many years, she can't gloat, so she holds the second wife's hand and pats her arm, "Second brother and sister, everything is decided by the mother." ”

"Liuya'er, bring the rattan offered in front of the Buddha."

Ding Rou, who was named, stiffened, "Ding Rou." ”

Mrs. Tai's tone was even more severe, Ding Rou silently went to the Buddhist hall, and when she came back, she held a rattan used as a godson in her hand, bypassed the screen, and walked to Mrs. Tai with low eyebrows, "Grandmother." ”

At this time, Ding Rou saw clearly that the second master had long lost his former celebrity demeanor, and looked at Mrs. Tai a little stupidly, while Master Ding, Ding Rou's father, was lying on the ground with his hands on the ground, hanging his head, and couldn't see what he was thinking.

Concubine? Is it that serious? Ding Rou has no experience in this area, in modern times, it is all about how the concubine is, it seems to be extremely ordinary, Ding Rou has also checked the historical data, and knows that the concubine is also a concubine, and she cannot crisis the status of the wife.

Mrs. Tai picked up the rattan and slammed it fiercely, slap, slap, smack, and whipped Ding Liang three times in a row, Ding Dong knelt and climbed two steps, "The second brother is confused for a while, mother, he is confused for a while." ”

Ding Rou also took the opportunity to persuade: "Grandmother is angry." ”

Since the rattan she took, although Ding Rou wanted to let the merry second uncle take two more beatings, but right in front of her, she couldn't say that her grandmother was right, Ding Dong knelt, as Ding Dong's daughter, she also had to kneel, Ding Rou's knees were weak, kneeling aside, Ding Dong glanced at Ding Rou who bowed his head, and continued to plead: "The second brother was picked up by a friend, not on purpose to make his mother angry." ”

"Hmph, concubine... I really don't know when I have such a title, since I am willing to be a concubine, what honor do I need? Fu low and small, guarding the rules of the concubine room, I still think she has her duty, and she doesn't want to be a concubine with a face, and she still wants to be honorable? Want to harm the Ding family? Phew, what about the sister of King Chuling's side concubine? The Ding family didn't need her to stammer with the Chu Ling Palace. ”

Mrs. Tai was puzzled and twitched Ding Liang twice, Ding Rou secretly cheered up Mrs. Tai next to her, saying very well, since she is a concubine, she still has an identity? The noble concubine is one level higher than the second room that is clearly displayed, and there are very few second-room aunts in the Qinggui family, and even Aunt Liu does not dare to call the second-room aunt in front of her voice.

"Mother, my son is wrong."

The second master didn't dare to dodge, "My son is drunk... Mother .."

There was a stiffness here, and the eldest lady behind the screen pushed the second wife, signaling that you have to intercede with the second master at this time, how can you miss such a good opportunity? The second wife is an understanding person, although she froze for a while, feeling that the eldest lady had hit the right one, but she quickly came to her senses, glanced at the eldest lady gratefully, and went around the screen and pounced on Ding Liang, "Mother, the master is confused for a while." ”

Out of the corner of her eyes, Ding Rou watched Mrs. Tai raise the rattan again, and landed on the arm of the second wife who was protecting her husband, snap, although the sound was very loud, but judging from the place where it fell, it was not as heavy as the horse, such a mother-in-law, it was very rare. I believe in Mrs. Tai's words that always do not leave her mouth, family and everything is prosperous.

"Ma'am."

Ding Liang's literati scholarly feelings, seeing that his wife sacrificed herself to protect her, her eyes were naturally full of emotion, and the second wife was full of tears, and she smiled lightly: "Master." ”

Mrs. Tai snorted: "It's a pity that the good daughter-in-law I set for you, the noble concubine, not only hurt the face of the Ding family, but also hurt the face of the daughter-in-law's mother's family, how do you let me meet my in-laws?" ”

Ding Liang said: "My son is wrong, wrong. ”

Mrs. Tai put down the rattan, and Ding Rou saw her throat rolling, and handed over the teacup, "Grandmother." ”

Mrs. Tai looked at Ding Rou's eyes for a little kindness, took a sip of tea, and then said, "Is it the one Jia Wu pouted?" ”

"Yes."

"I knew it was him, I thought I was a Jinshi who hit the tail of the list, and his father was also ... [This chapter is not finished, please click on the next page to continue reading!] ］
