Chapter 269: Beginning
Fu Tingyun looked at the expression of the third cousin, and felt a little strange in her heart, as if the sixth uncle was making a fuss about separating the family and had something to do with her!
She couldn't help but say, "What the hell is going on?" The Shu family has been an official eunuch for generations, and the poems and books have been passed down to the family, so that the son whose mother's bones are not cold propose to divide the family, such an unfaithful, unfilial, unkind and unrighteous thing, how could they let the sixth uncle do it? Is there a misunderstanding in this? After speaking, he couldn't help but say, "Although Uncle Shu likes to tease me very much, but apart from this, he is stable and polite, and now he has won the Jinshi and is a parent official, so he should act more thoughtfully, how can he let the sixth uncle propose to divide the family?" His face was full of confusion, and he never believed that this was what Shu Ming would do.
When the third cousin heard this, she blurted out: "You know the uncle of the Shu family quite well!" It's just that before the words fell, a trace of remorse flashed in her eyes, and she hurriedly smiled as if she was remedy, "I mean, our sisters, Uncle Shu likes to tease you the most, and often provokes you to jump like a cat with a tail, but I didn't expect you to treat Uncle Shu quite fairly." ”
"You can't generalize everything." Fu Tingyun said, "I'm not a child anymore, I still understand this truth." Having said that, she didn't know why, she always felt as if her third cousin had something to say.
"Speaking of which, this matter has something to do with you." The third cousin was as calm and natural as before, and talked with a smile about Master Fu Liu's proposal to split the family, "Somehow, Uncle Shu knows about you. It is said that he was furious. First, he asked the staff to bring a message to the sixth uncle and the sixth aunt, so that they could administer justice, and at that time the grandmother was already sick in bed, and the sixth uncle and sixth aunt could not say much. Later, the uncle of the Shu family rushed back from Meng County in person. Just in time for my grandmother to die of illness, he closed the door and said something to Uncle Six, and even my mother didn't inquire about what he said, but Uncle Six's face was ugly after hearing it, and he lingered in front of my grandmother's spirit for several days.
"At that time, we thought that Uncle Shu was playing outside for the sixth uncle all the year round, regardless of family affairs, and had a dispute with the sixth uncle, who knew that my grandmother had just been mourned. The sixth uncle proposed the matter of splitting the family. He also said that this matter had already been discussed with the Shu family.
"When the eldest uncle heard this, he was furious and scolded the sixth uncle, 'Are you the son of the Fu family or the son-in-law of the Shu family?'
"The fifth uncle also said that the sixth uncle 'how could there be a matter of being instructed by his daughter-in-law's family to turn around, let alone such an inconsequential statement'.
"You also know that on weekdays, the sixth uncle respects the uncle and the fifth uncle the most, but this time he didn't say a word, only said that he wanted to split up. The third and fourth uncles were resolute when they saw him. Persuade him, 'You have to tell the reason, otherwise how can we explain it to our relatives and friends.'
"Uncle Sixth said that you are still alive, and you were wronged by Yu Jingxiu at the beginning. He also said, 'This husband is outside the outer room, and usually the wife is the last to know.' It's not that I want to break up. I still have a wife and children, and my wife has to go back to her parents' house, and my children have to talk about their in-laws, so I have to leave some dignity for them......."
Fu Tingyun was stunned and interrupted the third cousin's words: "Isn't Uncle Shu in Meng County?" Why did he know all about it? Thinking of the hurtful gossip, he said abruptly, "What did those people say?" ”
"How many people in this world don't like to watch the excitement? Not to mention our family. The third cousin also felt upset when she thought of this, and her face was a little heavy, "Uncle Shu is said to have listened to the people of the Shu family. Listen to the meaning of Uncle Six's words. It seems that people in Shaanxi who have a little head and face know about it. Speaking of you, I mostly pity you for being victimized by that Yu Jingxiu, and now you have a family that you can't return to, and you are forced to marry far away. There is also a discussion about Yu Jingxiu, feeling that he is too despicable, and even his own Yue's family has to calculate, although he is good at learning. But virtue is very unbearable. But the most talked about are the eldest uncle and the fifth uncle, saying that they are clever and profit-seeking, the Fu family has a hundred years of reputation, and the etiquette, righteousness and shame of the scholars are completely disregarded, and their daughter's life is exchanged for their own glory and wealth...... Before I came, the old lady of the Huang family in the east of the city died of illness, and she didn't even post to the Fu family! As he spoke, he sighed. said with a wry smile: "I haven't dared to tell your brother-in-law these things, I'm afraid he will laugh!" ”
No matter how embarrassed Fu Tingyun looked, Zhao Ling had seen it, but she didn't have these concerns, but she listened to it and had all kinds of flavors in her heart, not a taste, and muttered: "It can be seen that there is still some truth in the sentence 'people's hearts have their own justice'." I, the client, thought that the Fu family's kindness to me couldn't bear to ruin the Fu family's century-old reputation, and swallowed no matter how many grievances I had. I never thought that in the end, the paper still couldn't contain the fire...... and then thought of Shu Ming, and said: "However, Uncle Shu is too reckless to do this." After all, this is the Fu family's business, and if others know about it, they will say that he is nosy......" and remembered that Shu Ming should be in Fang County at this time, and couldn't help but exclaim, "What changes have happened to the uncle of the Shu family?" Otherwise, how could he suddenly return to Huayin? ”
I felt a little uneasy in my heart.
The third cousin thought about the scene when Shu Ming heard the news of Fu Tingyun's death.
At that time, Shu Ming was on his way to Beijing to catch the exam, and when he heard the news, he had to turn back. The Shu family and the steward who went to serve couldn't persuade them, so they had to turn around halfway.
After he came back, he went to Fu Tingyun's grave and put three sticks of incense.
As an in-law, it can be regarded as affectionate and righteous, and he has done his best.
Who knew that in the middle of the night, he quietly touched Fu Tingyun's grave by himself again, lying there crying. The grave keepers thought it was haunted, so they were so frightened that they called someone to exorcise the ghosts, and then they knew that the person who cried the grave was Shu Ming.
Since then, Mrs. Shu has not been much with the Fu family.
This time, when he heard that Fu Tingyun was still alive, he ran back without hesitating to leave his errand, and asked her why Fu Tingyun didn't come back? What kind of person is Zhao Ling? Is it okay to treat Fu Tingyun? Is Fu Tingjun fat or thin? How many children do you have? Are the children obedient? Who does it look like...... No matter how big or small, ask them one by one. is the fifth uncle Fu, I'm afraid he didn't care about Fu Tingyun so much, and he disregarded the righteousness and said that the sixth uncle would split up......
In the past, she was young, and she only felt that Shu Ming was more patient with Fu Tingyun than other sisters, and Fu Tingyun would like her elders since she was a child. Now that I have grown up and become married, I understand the things between men and women, and when I look at Shu Ming again, I feel a little awkward in my heart.
But the two have never met since Fu Tingyun and Yu Jingjian got married, and this feeling can only be endured in their hearts, and they can't even say a word of persuasion. But if he doesn't say anything, at the beginning of spring next year, Shu Ming's three-year term of office as a county magistrate will expire. It stands to reason that they will come to Kyoto to report on their work, and the two will meet at that time...... She was faintly worried, afraid that Shu Ming would be dizzy like last time and do something as ridiculous as running to the grave to cry and mourn.
"What can he do with that person, a goblin?" Although Shu Ming is their elder, he is three years younger than his third cousin, and he has played with them since he was a child. The third cousin talked about him a little more intimate and a little less respectful, "He listened to your business and deliberately returned to Huayin's ......" The words came out. felt that his words were a little vague, so he simply said in a refreshing tone, "You also know that he is a person, he can read since he was a child, and he is a young son, Mrs. Shu prefers him the most, and he has the temper of the deputy son-in-law. Otherwise. will not persuade the sixth uncle to split up. He worked as a county magistrate in Meng County for three years, and he was promoted to the county magistrate. I will go back to Kyoto next year to report on my work, and with his temper, I will definitely come to see you then. I'm afraid that he will make a mess and do something that makes people cry and laugh. ”
Fu Tingyun thought of the things Shu Ming did when she was a child, and couldn't help but laugh. said: "The third sister's scruples are not unreasonable. However, I am not a child now, and if he wants to encourage me, it depends on whether I agree or not! ”
"Just remember what you said." The third cousin told her repeatedly, "You are all parents now, you can't do what you want and lose the dignity of your elders." ”
"Could it be that Uncle Shu can't pull my hair if they can still meet?" Fu Tingyun smiled, "You can rest assured." Uncle Shu is not a child anymore. ”
The third cousin instructed again and again, and then went home.
Fu Tingyun wrote an envelope to Zhao Ling. In addition to talking about Hao Jianfeng, he also told Zhao Ling about Shu Ming, and said: "Uncle Shu has been stubborn since he was a child, I really can't imagine how he sits in the public court with a straight face to try the case......
Zhao Ling's reply arrived after the Lantern Festival. He asked Fu Tingyun to brake quietly, and not to take the initiative to ask about Hao Jianfeng. He also said: "I have already written an envelope for people to send it to Mr. Ji for 600 miles, if any of them wants you to match, they will look for you, you just need to act when you have the opportunity." Speaking of Shu Minglai, he said, "It can be seen that justice is at ease in the hearts of the people." It's not that everyone is like Master Fu and Master Fu, it's just that everyone doesn't know the truth. As long as we make a good living and make this day as good as possible, one day everyone will despise the Yu family. The things in this world are more icing on the cake and less charcoal in the snow. ”
Fu Tingyun thought about what had happened these days and felt that Zhao Ling's words were very reasonable. Thinking that a few days ago, I heard Mrs. Mo say that the large and small villages in Guizhou are now safe and disciplined, and I wanted to ask him about the war situation in Guizhou.
As soon as he lifted the pen, Bao Shu came in and said, "Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Hao next door are coming to visit you." ”
Last Name: Hao ...... It should be Hao Jianfeng's steproom.
Last time, when Mrs. Wu washed the dust of her third cousin, she specially recommended Mrs. Hao to her.
Mrs. Wu has always been on the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, and presumably she came with Mrs. Hao this time, and she also had something to say to her.
Fu Tingyun thought about it, and asked Baoshu to welcome the two to the hall of the main house, changed his clothes, and went to the hall.
Mrs. Hao is only twenty-seven or eight years old this year, and she is very rich, and she always has a smile on her face. Seeing Fu Tingyun come out, she immediately stood up and shouted "Mrs. Zhao" with some courtesy.
Mrs. Wu also stood up, but said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for a few days, but Mrs. Zhao looks as energetic as before." It can be seen that Mrs. Zhao has been smooth sailing these days, and everything is going well! ”
"Mrs. Wu has won the award." Fu Tingyun stepped forward and saluted the two ladies, "It's just that you can be at peace with what you meet, and your heart is wide and fat." ”
Mrs. Hao was busy saying, "Where is Mrs. Zhao fat?" Look at this waist, seventeen or eighteen-year-old girls can't compare. But we, one like a bucket, the other like a teapot, have no shape. ”
When Mrs. Wu heard this, she laughed.
Fu Tingyun also laughed and gossiped with Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Hao for a long time. It wasn't until the maid held the tea and served the snacks that Mrs. Wu glanced at Mrs. Hao, and Mrs. Hao smiled and said with a little caution: "Actually, I came this time because I wanted to ask Mrs. Zhao for help!" ”

There were too many people in the hospital, and when I went to see a doctor, I had to wait for more than 800 numbers, and I had to go to the medical guidance desk to pay for an appointment and go to the hospital tomorrow...... Pity my registration fee, so I contributed to the hospital ......~~~~(>_
