Chapter 43: Wives and Concubines

After Wu Yuan walked out of Sanfu Hall, he heard sobs from the house as soon as he walked to the Weeping Flower Gate, and Wu Yuan's footsteps froze.

Mama Zhu said respectfully: "Eldest Lady, go to Xiaokuan Courtyard, it's not for Eldest Miss to listen to the mess here." ”

Wu Yuan had to nod, and quickened his pace out of Sanfu Hall to go to school in the small cross courtyard.

When Mama Zhu returned to the house, she saw Cui kneeling on the ground and crying silently, and Mama Cui also knelt on the ground with her head down and didn't dare to speak. The second master, Wu Zhonghe, stood beside the old lady, and the anger between his eyebrows was almost uncontrollable.

Mama Zhu didn't dare to say much, so she hurriedly stood aside and lowered her hands, waiting for the old lady's instructions.

"Cui's, since your housekeeper, the backyard has been a lot quieter, I thought your temperament had become calm, I didn't expect you to be so angry, make such a thing to make the second child shameless, you are the wife of the main house, what can a concubine of the Yang family hinder you, you actually drove her out of the house, it's really not good!"

The old lady picked up the cane and pounded the ground, and said with a calm face, although the Yang family is just a concubine, it was carried into the door by the Wu family, so she was driven out of the house, and she didn't even go home with Wu Zhonghe, and lived with a concubine outside, I don't know how many people in Yangzhou City are watching the Wu family's jokes.

Seeing this, Wu Zhonghe helped the old lady to sit down on the top, but the old lady put Wu Zhonghe's hand away, and Wu Zhonghe saw that the old lady was angry with herself, so she had to stand aside with her hands hanging down with a sneering face.

"Mother, it's really my daughter-in-law's anger, the lord went to my aunt's house, I didn't have anything to say, but the Yang family came to ask for peace every once in a while, with a smug look on his face, you didn't see it, I was really angry when I was wandering around under my nose all day long!" Cui Shi knelt on the ground, and Pear Blossom said with rain.

Wu Zhonghe saw that Cui's was still arguing here, and pointed at Cui's angrily and said, "You are still talking nonsense here with your mother!" Do you think I don't know your mind! You saw that Yang was pregnant, and you felt uncomfortable, so you drove Yang out directly before Yang told me! You're so vicious! ”

Cui's was there all at once, what?! Aunt Yang is pregnant!

The old lady was also shocked, how many years has it been since the Yang family entered the West Courtyard, and there has never been news of pregnancy, and the old lady even thought that the Yang family was probably infertile.

The old lady asked Cui Shi with a gloomy face: "Do you know that Yang is pregnant?" ”

Cui Shi hurriedly shook his head vigorously, and said in horror: "The daughter-in-law really doesn't know, if the daughter-in-law knows that the Yang family is pregnant, where would she dare to do such an impulsive thing, the daughter-in-law will not dare to be angry!" Mother... The daughter-in-law married into the Wu family, and the daughter-in-law knew that she was not a calm character, but the daughter-in-law also knew it... ”

Mama Cui hurriedly threw herself at Wu Zhong's feet, crying and said, "Master, Madam, she really doesn't know anything, Aunt Yang never told us that she was pregnant!" If we knew that Aunt Yang had the blood of the old man and killed us, we wouldn't dare to drive Aunt Yang out! ”

Wu Zhonghe kicked Cui Mama over, "Old thing! It's you who come up with these vicious ideas in front of your wife all day long! ”

Cui Shi hurriedly stepped forward to hug Wu Zhonghe's legs, and said in a crying voice: "Master, I really don't know anything, I was really angry at the time, so I did such a thing... ”

At this time, I saw Wu Yongkang rushing into Sanfu Hall, and saw Cui's pear blossom kneeling on the ground with rain, and pointed at Wu Zhonghe angrily and said: "If you don't want us, just say it!" Why do you want to do this to my mother! We'll just go out of the house and go alone! ”

After speaking, Wu Yongkang helped Cui Shi up.

When Cui Shi saw Wu Yongkang, he couldn't hold back his tears, hugged Wu Yongkang, and the mother and son cried together.

Wu Zhonghe endured his anger and said with a gloomy face: "Yongkang, you are not staying in the academy at this time, what are you doing here!" Is this the place for you! ”

Wu Yongkang looked directly at his father with red eyes and anger in his eyes: "The son just can't see his father spoil his concubine and kill his wife!" ”

"You..."

Wu Zhonghe's eyes turned black when he heard the words, and he suddenly collapsed on the circle chair, and Mama Zhu hurriedly went to help Wu Zhonghe.

Seeing this, Cui Shi was startled and hurriedly stepped forward, "Zhonghe, Zhonghe, what's wrong with you?" ”

"Dad, you speak! Father! Wu Yongkang also hurriedly surrounded Wu Zhonghe and shouted loudly.

Seeing that Wu Zhonghe didn't answer, Cui Shi hurriedly called the little guy to invite Lang Zhong.

The servants who were waiting in the house carried Wu Zhonghe to the soft collapse to rest, and Cui Shi pinched a hot handkerchief and put it on his forehead for Wu Zhonghe anxiously.

The old lady saw that there was a mess in this room, and sighed, what a mess!

After a while, Lang Zhong hurriedly stepped into Sanfu Hall, and after taking the pulse, he said: "Second Master is just in a hurry, it's no big deal, just take a few pills and recuperate with your heart, but you can't let Second Master Wu move anymore." ”

Cui Shi hurriedly responded, and asked Lang Zhong several times.

"Let Dr. Liang write the prescription, you ask Dr. Liang how to prescribe medicine for the second child." The old lady stood aside and said with a non-worried face.

Cui asked Lang Zhong to write the prescription and instructed the little girl to hurry up and decoct the medicine.

After all the people in the house dispersed, Cui knelt down in front of the old lady and said in a low voice: "Mother, all the mistakes are the daughter-in-law's fault, the daughter-in-law drove the Yang family out of the house, and made the old man angry like this, please punish the mother." It's just that the daughter-in-law really doesn't know that Yang is pregnant, and if the daughter-in-law tells a lie, the daughter-in-law will not die well. ”

After speaking, Cui's was already crying.

The old lady was silent and let Cui Shi kneel.

Seeing this, Wu Yongkang also knelt on the ground all of a sudden, bowed his head and did not speak.

After a while, the maid came in with the freshly fried medicine and carefully fed Wu Zhonghe.

I don't know how long it took, when Wu Zhonghe woke up, the old lady was sitting on the side and was rubbed by Mama Zhu's temples.

"Mother..."

Wu Zhonghe woke up to see silence in the house.

The old lady hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "How are you feeling?" Are you feeling better? ”

"My son is much better. The son is not filial, which makes you worry for a long time. Wu Zhonghe got up from the soft collapse and said respectfully.

Seeing Cui Shi and Wu Yongkang kneeling on the ground, Wu Zhonghe sighed and asked Cui Mama to help the two of them up.

"No matter what, it's all in your house, my mother shouldn't interfere, but I think Cui's shouldn't know that Yang is pregnant, although Cui's is impulsive, but he is not a stupid person, I think you will spare her this time." The old lady said.

Wu Zhonghe glanced at Cui, who was crying and kneeling on the ground, and said: "This time it is my mother who speaks for you, so I will let you go, if you are so vicious, don't blame me for not thinking about the relationship between husband and wife!" ”

Hearing this, Cui Shi hurriedly said: "I know, I will never dare to be so impulsive in the future, thank you, mother!" ”

"Don't help your mother up!" Wu Zhonghe raised his voice and said to Wu Yongkang, who was kneeling on the ground.

Wu Yongkang hurriedly went to help Cui's, perhaps because he had been kneeling on the ground for a long time, and he almost couldn't stand up when he stumbled, and Cui's grandmother hurriedly stepped forward to help the two of them get up.

"Cui's, tomorrow you will send someone to invite Aunt Yang back, with the blood of my Wu family, what kind of body will you show up outside!" The old lady said in a deep voice.

Cui Shi hurriedly responded, "The daughter-in-law naturally knows." ”

Seeing that Wu Zhonghe had woken up, the old lady asked them to retreat, saying that they were tired, and were helped into the house by Mama Zhu to rest.
