3. Fucha
After another ten days, Liu Xixi has become accustomed to his current identity, and the little brother has also recovered, and the whole family is very happy. One afternoon, when she was taking a nap, she heard Xiao Tao whisper to her second sister-in-law that the one in the east chamber had been beaten in the yamen a few days ago and died that night. In the evening of the same day, Tong gathered his family and ordered that he should not be mentioned again.
Tong let her husband know her grievances, and helped the concubine intercede virtuously, but Zhang Bao insisted on sending the concubine to see the official, and then the woman was beaten to death. Because of his wife's crying that day, he felt that he had indeed mistreated his wife in recent years, thinking that when she was in Beijing, she was idle by her mother-in-law, and in order to take care of herself, she abandoned the prosperity of Beijing and came to Fengtian to accompany her husband to suffer, reluctantly gave birth to a child, fell ill, and took a concubine for herself, and she did not say anything after being idle by the concubine. Even if the child was killed, she interceded for the victim's concubine. Where can I find such a good wife? It should be good for her. Therefore, he became more and more gentle and considerate to his wife, and the relationship between the two quickly warmed up.
Liu Xixi saw Tong's methods not long after he crossed over, and he felt that it was really powerful, so he was more cautious and cautious. The second sister-in-law has fed her brother and sister since she was a child, and she is very close to both children. Tong felt uneasy, and he was a little unhappy with his second sister-in-law on weekdays. Liu Xixi felt that the second sister-in-law was a person who really loved her, and she couldn't bear to see her suffer, so although she didn't alienate her, as soon as she saw Tong's appearance, she pretended to be sticky and got close to Tong. The Tong family was really happy, and felt that it was really flesh and blood, and it was close to his biological mother. Her heart must have calmed down, and she has been very harmonious with her husband recently, and she looks at everyone pleasing to the eye, and slowly, she is also much kinder to her second sister-in-law.
The life of a one-year-old girl is really boring, so Xiao Tao's gossip has become a good pastime, and by the way, she asks for information, and Liu Xixi listens carefully every day.
From these short words of the East and West Family, she probably knew that it was the autumn of the twentieth year of Kangxi, this family was a branch of the Tatara clan, belonging to the Red Banner, the family had been in the army for generations, her grandfather had the title of first-class earl, her father and four brothers were all from the main house, and her father was the third, because he was born prematurely, he was not in good health since he was a child, and he couldn't enter the army, so he had to go to study. A few years ago, the young and promising and famous handsome and dashing (Xiao Taoyu) Shangshu Minister Chen Liangben wrote to the emperor and suggested that Jingqi return to Tunguan. Fengtianfu Yin was ordered to preside over this matter, and found two Eight Banner Lords to help suppress the scene, and a bunch of flag people were driven to the outside of the gate, making a lot of trouble. My father and several colleagues were sent to Mukden to assist in the errands, and in order to show their determination, they all brought their families to take up their posts. The predecessor of this body was born in Mukden.
Although she can only inquire about these furs for the time being, Liu Xixi is already very satisfied, and believes that with Xiao Tao here, she will know more and more about this world.
It is said that on the street where this house is located, most of them are the homes of petty officials who run errands in the yamen. There is a family at the east end of the street, the male owner is named Fucha, but he is not surnamed Fucha, he is the concubine of Prince Zheng, the prince of iron hats in Fengtian City. Because his biological mother was just a little maidservant, Prince Zheng got drunk and forced people to chuang before they got married, and he didn't care about it afterwards, so his mother and son have been unpopular, and they were driven out by Prince Zheng's fortune more than 20 years ago, and they suffered a lot. Later, Nafucha found an errand in the government office, and was able to settle down on this street. After a few years, he married and had children, and now he has two sons, the eldest is thirteen and the younger is eleven years old, and he is very naughty, and he messes around with the teenagers and children who live on the same street.
A few days ago, his youngest son fell down while climbing a tree, and he passed out at that time, and he didn't wake up for a few days. Who knew that two days ago, the child suddenly woke up, but forgot about the past, and the whole family only rejoiced as long as he was alive. But this is a strange thing after all, not only the people on the whole street have heard about it, but even most of the people in Fengtian City have heard about it, and even the Fengtian Mansion Yin knows about it, and he also said to Fucha that his son will not die in a catastrophe, and there will be a blessing in the future.
This kind of wonder, how could the gossip little peach miss it? Originally, the one in the east chamber was an excellent conversation, but because the hostess ordered not to speak, Xiao Tao had already been suffocated, and when this happened, she grabbed people to chat for three days, and went to find her friend and friend Xiang'er every day, under the pretext of buying onions and garlic, and ran outside to inquire. Thanks to her, even Liu Xixi, who is "only one year and two months old", knows everything about this matter, and even the youngest son of Fucha woke up and changed his taste and refused to eat his favorite garlic.
When she first heard about this, Liu Xixi had a strange thought: Isn't this little boy being crossed? But then she felt that there were so many crossings in the world, so she didn't think about it anymore.
Although she didn't think so, as more and more gossip came from Xiao Tao, the signs that Fucha's youngest son was crossing became clearer and clearer. Not only have your tastes changed greatly, but even your personality and hobbies have changed. I don't like to climb trees, I love to tinker with small inventions, I want to burn glass with sand, and I almost didn't burn down his house, until I heard from my family that glass is now available and sold in stores outside (Liuxisi: Has glass been popularized at this time?). )。 Later, I had to make wine, and what I made was more sour than vinegar, and I threw it aside. One day, he suddenly fell in love with poetry and songs, and threatened to become a generation of talents, but because the brush writing was too ugly, he often wrote white characters (Liu Xixi flower arrangement: It's simplified, right?). I threw it away in two days. After a few days, he heard that there was a firearms camp outside the city, so he wanted to go and see it, and he threatened to make a new firearm that had never been seen before. But the firearms camp is a forbidden place, how can he be allowed to enter it with a son and a half? His son Fucha scolded him, he quieted down, but he still didn't give up, he still tossed some things in his house that he found out of nowhere, and got some fire from the old Zhang Tou who sold firecrackers, and fiddled with it himself, but it exploded twice in a row, and the window was blown up, but he didn't hurt it, but scared his family half to death. His grandmother cried and begged him, and he promised not to fiddle with the fire anymore.
Now Fucha has no intention of doing errands in the yamen every day, only worrying about what trouble the youngest son in the family will cause again, and he will make mistakes again and again, and Lord Yin will also look at him. When Zhang Bao went home for dinner, he often mentioned the jokes that Fucha made in the yamen, which made Tong laugh non-stop.
After two more days, Xiao Tao has a new gossip. It turned out that the youngest son of the Fucha family saw that the family was only well-off, and wanted to go to business to make money. His mouth seemed to have been filled with honey, and the old lady couldn't close her mouth, and she agreed in a daze.
He went to the street to find a big shop, but the few businesses in Fengtian City had big backers behind them, how could he pay attention to his son of a small abandoned son of the palace? Seeing that he was unsuccessful, he ran out of the city again, and wanted to dig ginseng medicinal materials on Chengxiao Mountain to sell, but he didn't go back all night, which alarmed his father and brought someone to escort him home. It wasn't until he was scolded that the kid knew that the banner people were not allowed to do business, and they were not allowed to dig ginseng outside the customs, which was expressly forbidden by the imperial court. Besides, that hill is often crowded with people, and it is a place for others to visit in spring, how can there be ginseng?
Fucha was frightened into a sweat, and felt that this kid had almost caused a big disaster to the family, so he banned his feet. I persuaded my mother for a long time, asking her to stop being used to her little grandson. However, Fucha's eldest son knows more than his younger brother on weekdays, because his younger brother has suddenly been in the limelight so much recently, and he is a little unhappy, and when he sees him reprimanded, he is so happy that he laughs at him among his friends, and these things are known to everyone on the street.
Fucha had just spent two days in the yamen for his birthday, and suddenly found that his colleagues were sympathetic to him, and grabbed two friends to ask carefully, only to know that the scandal of his youngest son had spread to the whole city, and he was immediately angry. He has always been a strong man, and when he was a child in the palace, he didn't want to be a little low, so he was not likable. After leaving the palace, he was determined to get ahead so that he could show the people of the palace. His skills are not outstanding, but after many years, he has made a little achievement, and he is respected among his colleagues. This joke made by his youngest son made him lose the good reputation he had accumulated over the years. Thinking that maybe the palace already knew about it, and he must be laughing at him behind his back, he couldn't stand it, and he didn't do it, so he took leave from his superiors and went home, hated and beat his younger son, and chose a reliable maid in the family, asking her to follow his younger son every day and not allow him to mess around anymore.
In the next two months, there was no new gossip from the Fucha family, and Xiao Tao also turned her attention to the scandal between the fourth son of the Lao Ma family at the end of the street and the new widow of the Han tenant Wang Er's family brought by the Huitun Banner people. Because Xiao Tao and Xiaomei are all unmarried little girls, saying these gossips will inevitably hinder the reputation of the girl, and the second sister-in-law raised her face and taught Xiao Tao a lesson. But this kind of thing is like Dayu controlling the water, how can it be done with blockage? Although Xiaomei has always been serious and obedient and ignores this kind of thing, Xiaotao still found a new person to chat with: Mrs. Liu, a tailor who came to make new winter clothes. Sometimes when the second sister-in-law was not in the little girl's room, Xiao Tao grabbed Mrs. Liu, under the pretext that the door of the room was facing the vestibule, and she happened to borrow light to do work, and the two of them chirped, so that the bored Liu Xixi listened to it, and sighed that a woman's gossip ability is the same whether it is in ancient times or in modern times.
Seeing that the winter coat was almost completed, Xiao Tao was reluctant to let Mrs. Liu go, and when she was sighing, an explosive news suddenly came. The crossing boy of the Fucha family has made a real big incident.
