282 Relatives came
The things in the daily life are actually pretty much the same, three meals normally, and then accompany the spirit to meet the guests, but things like dealing with the Ruan family are not happening every day, so this day is peaceful. < Ice and Fire #Chinese It's just that Qi Yunjing somehow rode over on horseback next day, although he could see that he was unwilling, but because he knew his relationship with Yuhua, as long as he came, it would be considered a courtesy.
Qi Yunhao came a little later, and when he arrived, he called Liuli to the backyard to talk.
"Just now I went to the Ministry of Officials, and the order for Ma Weiqing to be promoted to the right Zhongyun of the Zhan Mansion will be issued in a few days, you can go and tell him."
Liuli didn't expect to have news so quickly, and when she thought about it, it turned out to be the Zhan Mansion that she entered, and the Zhan Mansion was a place to assist the prince, and now the situation is so delicate, Qi Yunhao put him there, did he have any other intentions?
Qi Yunhao also seemed to see her thoughts, and didn't explain anything, but said, "I don't know who to assist in the future." ”
Liuli heard this before he suddenly realized. Indeed, it is good for Zhan Shifu to assist the crown prince, but who knows if this prince will be the last until the end?
Who Liuli told Min Hua the news, although he didn't expect her to be grateful, he also wanted her to be happy, but Min Hua looked calm, just owed her a debt, thanked her, and said nothing else. It's like Ma Weiqing's future doesn't matter to her at all. But since it wasn't important, why did she ask this official for him?
Ruri really couldn't figure it out.
From the fourth day, the number of mourning guests gradually increased, because many of them only learned the news that the Su family had been ordained later, and some of them were of lower rank. According to the rules, the first few days are close relatives who go to mourn, so the banquet prepared in the house is also of high standard, and if those who are far away or have a low grade come at this time, most of them will be pointed at behind their backs.
Because I don't have to accompany the guests, Liuli has become more relaxed since today. I accompanied Ling in the mourning hall for a while, and it happened that Min Hua came over and was about to get up and squint for a while, when suddenly there was a cry outside the gate, and the earth-shattering price came to the mourning hall! And it was accompanied by muffled crying. Because there are many people inside and outside, I can't hear what I say for a while.
Liuli was crying by this, and her drowsiness was gone, standing at the door of the mourning hall and looking out, a group of people were surrounded at the gate, Qian Changsheng and several people from the clan were there, and they didn't dare to reach out to stop it. It's not like a subordinate. But everyone knows that there is a funeral in the house right now, who has the courage to make trouble at the gate?
So he walked out of the stairs and walked towards the gate.
Someone has already called for Aunt Jiu to come. Qian Changsheng and the others hurriedly retreated, bowed their heads and stepped forward and said, "Grandma is here just in time, and Mrs. Guo is here!" Before Liuli could come back to her senses, who was this Aunt Guo's wife, suddenly a forty-year-old woman in a stone blue brocade jacket cried and threw herself at the bottom of the stone steps, patted the ground and cried bitterly: "God! Master He has no conscience. stepped on my sister and climbed up, and now she is demoted to a lower cousin! You spoil concubines and kill wives, the general's wife is bullying, and there is no royal law in the world! Oh my God, why don't you open your eyes and see! ”
The people walking on the street all looked this way, and gradually became onlookers. And the guests who originally came to the house to mourn also rushed out after hearing the news. Qian Changsheng looked at the woman's formation, and saw Liuli's face getting darker and darker, and said in a panic: "Auntie-"
Ruri raised her hand to stop him.
She couldn't see where Aunt Guo came from, so her eyes were white. Who else will there be in her mouth "sister" besides Yu? No matter what kind of relative she is of the Yu family, she will not come early or late, and she will not enter the door. I chose to cry in this place at this time, so I naturally came prepared!
But at this time, the trouble was all in trouble, and her reputation was also ruined, and it was useless to persuade me.
Liuli looked at the woman carefully, and when she cried, she really looked a little similar to the Yu family, so she asked Qian Changsheng: "What kind of relative is this Aunt Guo's wife?" ”
Qian Changsheng glanced around, came up and said in a low voice: "It is Mrs. Yu's sister-in-law, who was originally married to Guo Shao, a member of the Ministry of Rites. Guo Shao died a few years ago, and this Aunt Guo has been widowed. I haven't had any contact with our house for so many years, and Mrs. Yu didn't pay much attention to her at that time, I don't know why this child suddenly appeared. ”
He glanced at Aunt Guo, who was still lying on the ground crying. In the winter, sweat broke out on my forehead. He is the head of the government, and such a thing happened during the funeral in the house, and he can't get rid of it. But he couldn't help her, after all, she was also a serious relative in the house.
When Liuli heard him say this, her heart was like a mirror. Since she has not been in contact for a long time, and the Yu family herself does not care about her, this person dares to run to the door to shout for the Yu family, so there is naturally someone to support her. Liuli thought about He Tingfang, who was beaten the day before yesterday, and Ruan, who was angry with herself, could it be that this Aunt Guo was invited by them behind their backs? Whether it's or not, it's always inseparable from them.
So he swept into the crowd and said to a steward beside Qian Changsheng: "Since you are a relative of Mrs. Yu, go and invite the third young master and the third grandmother over." ”
The steward immediately turned around. When Aunt Guo heard Liuli's order, she looked up at her and cried even more.
Liuli didn't pay attention to it, and stood and watched her cry, and it wasn't her face that was lost anyway. After a while, the steward brought He Tingfang and Ruan Shi over. Liuli said to them: "This Aunt Guo said that you are your relatives who spoil concubines and kill their wives, so you can deal with it." ”
He Tingfang looked at Aunt Guo who was sprinkled on the ground, her face was red and white for a while, and she was about to step forward to scold her when she raised her feet, but Ruan suddenly walked over him and stepped forward to pull Aunt Guo: "Why don't you go in when Mrs. Aunt comes?" I haven't been here for a few days, and my mother is thinking about you! As he spoke, he bent down and went to help. Aunt Guo sat on the ground with her buttocks, and became more and more obedient: "My sister who has a hard life! ”
Ruan Shi lowered his head and printed his eyes, sighed and retreated to He Tingfang's side, looking at Liuli to express helplessness.
Ruri sneered, and simply sat down on a chair that Yuegui had brought behind her. When Ruan Shi walked past He Tingfang's side, she secretly pulled his sleeve, she thought that people didn't know it, how could she have expected that the glass that had been stared at them would be under their eyes? From this point of view, He Tingfang's anger can prove that this Aunt Guo was not invited by him, and the Ruan family is absolutely inextricably involved! But on her own, how can she invite a widow who is a foreigner?
At the moment, this situation is obviously coming for the glass. But to successfully push Liuli into an embarrassing situation at this time, except for the people of the Yu family, there is really no more suitable person to come! Those in the Yu Mansion have already expressed their position, and their daughter's misconduct has been refuted, and they don't have the face to come to the door. The daughters who marry out all have status, and they will not get involved in these things. So only low-status concubines like Aunt Guo can take advantage of it.
Aunt Guo is also an official dependent, and she still has children under her knees, even if she doesn't think about her reputation, she has to think about her children. If there were no strong bargaining chips, it would be impossible for her to make such a shameless spill.
She looked at Aunt Guo for a long time, and finally her eyes fell on her clean and neat soles. Then Qian Changsheng was invited to ask, "What about my aunt's car?" ”
Qian Changsheng was stunned and replied, "Mrs. Aunt has never had a car coming. ”
Without a car, the soles of your shoes will be so clean? What's more, how can there be a lady who doesn't take a car when she goes out! Although Guo Shao is dead, it is not even a carriage left, right?
So he called Liu Wei to come closer, and whispered: "Go and see what cars, horses and people are staying near Hefu." ”
As soon as Liu Wei went, Liuli pointed to Haitang and said, "Since Mrs. Aunt refuses to go in, it's quite tiring to sit and cry like this, go and move a stool." Cry well. ”
The people around were waiting for her to persuade this aunt to go back, but she didn't expect that not only did she not persuade her, but let people bring a stool for her to sit and cry, and they didn't know what she was going to do for a while, and began to discuss it in private.
Aunt Guo was also stunned, looking at Liuli sitting calmly in front of her, and she looked like this when she was old, she still couldn't ignore her dignity, she stopped her tears and got up from the ground, stared at Liuli hatefully, and sat on the stool that Haitang moved.
But Haitang only moved Zhang Xiaozi, although Aunt Guo is not high, but she has never sat on this thing in front of anyone, she is a little uncomfortable at the moment, but if she doesn't sit, she is really tired from crying, and it looks really rude, so she still has to sit.
Liuli watched her sit down, and then spoke: "Since Mrs. Aunt is not crying, let's talk about it." Don't you want God to do you justice? You don't need God, in front of so many guests in the house today, as well as so many people in the neighborhood outside, let me tell you about this justice. ”
As he spoke, he glanced at He Jianghong and his wife, as well as He Tingfang and Ruan, who had already come over on the side, got up and walked to Aunt Guo, and said, "Let's talk about your sister first." Mrs. Yushi's original wife, Yu, lost her morality, poisoned her mother-in-law, repeatedly assassinated the heirs of the concubine, framed the concubine, and the means were vicious and intolerable. These are not made up by me, they are all recorded in the Ministry of Rites. With this alone, He Fu can immediately divorce her! But where is she now? In the Buddhist hall of Hefu, those who eat Hefu wear Hefu still occupy the name of Mrs. With this, where does He Mansion not live with her? ”
Although these things were not made public, they were also spread privately in the courtiers' circles back then, so most of the guests knew about them. But the people on the street didn't know, they heard that the wife of the Imperial Historian, who was the daughter of the minister of the first rank of the dynasty and the wife of the imperial historian who was in charge of the virtue of the ministers, actually did such a rebellious thing, where was there no uproar? If the goddaughter is not strict, she will leave a disaster to her children and grandchildren, whose face will she lose? This Aunt Guo has such a sister, and she is embarrassed to come to the door to make trouble! Suddenly, the people who didn't understand Liuli, who was the general's wife, couldn't help but nod their heads for such wanton disruption of the funeral.
