Chapter 82: Contemporary
Xin Zixuan hesitated for a long time, looking at Shaohua's sincerity for her good, not the friendship between her aunt and sister-in-law. Thinking that he really had no one to complain about here, he had to give the Liu family to Li Sijin as a concubine, and even had to give Zi Yuan's identity to him, forcing Li Sijin to rest in the yali for several days and not go home.
Li Sijin still didn't tell Li Ge Lao about Liu's secret purchase of questions for Si Yan, and even his father Li Liangxun hid it. But he knew in his heart that this was a scandal and could not be discovered no matter what, otherwise the Li family would be disgraced.
Si Yan didn't know how to find out that his test question was dropped by Xin Zixuan, and he was so angry that he came to the door, but he was hit by Li Sijin. Because he disrespected his eldest sister-in-law, and there was no reason in his eyes, he locked him in the house and did not allow anyone to let him out. At first, he was still making trouble, but Li Sijin came into the house and chatted with him for a whole night until dawn. Si Yan seemed to be a different person, a little lost and depressed, and it seemed to be reborn.
Li Sijin told Li Ge Lao to send Si Yan to Pingshan Academy so that he could concentrate on studying, and Li Ge Lao agreed without thinking about it. Liu knew about it, but naturally refused, and begged bitterly that Si Yan had been pampered since he was a child and had never left home to live alone.
"That's really good, it's time for him to grow up well, I also suffered a lot in Liangping at the beginning, but for me now, it's all worth it." Li Sijin's serious expression made Liu's anger frustrated. If the soft one doesn't work, he will change it to the hard one, and he is so angry that he scolded the eldest son for listening to the bewitching slander, and he wanted to throw his younger brother into the mountains and old forests. "For the sake of Shiro's good, A-Niang can scold if she wants."
However, Li Sijin's words still have a lot of weight in the Li family, and Li Ge Lao agreed, even if Li Liangxun objected, it would be useless, let alone just the Liu family.
Therefore, when Liu was packing Si Yan's luggage, he secretly stuffed a lot of silver tickets, and packed up his daily things, and Lin Lin always had two big carriages. It's just that Liu didn't expect that the original itinerary for the morning, Li Sijin asked Si Yan to send Si Yan away the night before, so angry that Liu refused to talk to Li Sijin for several days
But the son is always the flesh that fell from his own body.
Even if the Liu family complains again, she will not be in a mood for too long, after all, as soon as Si Yan leaves, she will have a son like Li Sijin left. But emotions always have to be vented, and Xin Zixuan naturally became the scapegoat. However, Liu was depressed to find that Xin Zixuan's status in the Li family was far above her. Not to mention what her mother's family is, Li Ge Lao trusts her, Li Sijin protects her, although Li Liangxun didn't say anything, he also appreciates her. The Liu family couldn't pick a thorn in Xin Zixuan at all, even if he didn't let her get close, it would be useless.
It's just that whether a woman is a good daughter-in-law to her husband's family, in addition to filial piety and unity, is often reflected in giving birth to children. If Xin Zixuan can have a son and a half daughter, I'm afraid the Liu family is helpless. It's just that Xin Zixuan has been in the door for a long time, but there is no news about her belly, and Liang Ping said that it is a hard life, but it has been half a year since she returned to Li's house, and there has been no news. As a mother-in-law, the Liu family naturally has to exert her power.
Xin Zixuan had been mentally prepared, and it was precisely because of this that she accepted her fate and let the Liu family make it difficult for her.
It's just that she didn't expect that Liu didn't say a word, and found five girls in one go, all of them like flowers and jade, and asked Li Sijin to be her aunt. Li Sijin refused, so she said that Xin Zixuan was guilty of jealousy, and she refused to let her husband take a concubine without a concubine, and said that Xin Zixuan was red-faced.
When Li Sijin heard this, he no longer refused: "I can't stand so many ladies alone, so why don't I leave two for my father." ”
These words almost made Liu so angry that he vomited blood, and Li Sijin was a dead and reasonable. Husband and wife should be single-minded, support each other, and grow old together, and he listened to everything that the red man said in the night of the cave room and remembered it in his heart. Even if she wants to take a concubine, it has to be Xin Zixuan's old age, and after she agrees. Now that the Liu family not only wants him to take a concubine, but also accepts five in one go, Li Sijin didn't say anything on his face, and his heart was already furious.
Liu had no choice but to settle for the next best thing, and asked Li Sijin to carry the maid Ziyuan next to Xin Zixuan as his aunt. The purple mandarin was originally transferred from Liu's side, and Xin Zixuan couldn't refuse for the sake of her mother-in-law's kindness, so she was allowed to stay by her side, but she still prevented her in her heart. However, over the years, except for the bad temper, the purple duck has not done anything out of the ordinary, but as soon as he heard Liu say this, the purple duck immediately became alive.
When serving Xin Zixuan, he was not only absent-minded, but also often dangled in front of Li Sijin, if it weren't for Li Sijin's lack of greed for women, Zi Yuan's careful eyes would have hooked up a long time ago.
"Did the big brother take in the purple mandarin?" Shaohua listened to Xin Zixuan's description, it was like listening to a big drama.
I remember when I first met Liu, I was gentle and generous, and I was glad that Xin Zixuan could have such a good mother-in-law. But I didn't expect that when I lost my temper, ordinary people couldn't stand it. It's just that they naturally don't know about the matter of the next room.
"Naturally not, how can your big brother be this kind of person!" Xin Zixuan didn't tell Shaohua about the previous paragraph, but only said that she was worried about Li Sijin's concubine.
"In that case, what else is my sister-in-law worried about, my eldest brother's heart is towards you, isn't this it." Shaohua patted his chest and said.
"If only it were that easy." Xin Zixuan smiled bitterly, knowing that she shouldn't have been married to the room in the first place, and brought two maids by her side. When you can really use it, at least it is your own caring person. Seeing Shaohua's depressed face and trying very hard to find a way, Xin Zixuan's heart warmed, and she smiled and said, "Okay, Wu Niang, don't think too much." I'm talking to you like my own sister, in the final analysis, I'm careful about it, your eldest brother is the eldest son and grandson, and passing on the lineage is the top priority. ”
"Who said that!" Shaohua's face turned red in a hurry, "Even if, even if the eldest brother is the eldest son and grandson, then you can't just accept your aunt." I don't think that purple mandarin duck is good, I drank a glass of water from you, and she stared at me wide-eyed. If you lift her up, you won't be able to turn against the sky in the future. ”
Xin Zixuan and Shaohua consider the same point, Zi Yuan's biggest disadvantage is that she is a big girl from Liu's house, and she is not polite to other little maids or housekeepers, only she is humble in front of them and her husband. It's just a maid like this, if she is promoted to be an aunt, she has to be on an equal footing with Xin Zixuan.
"Don't worry, sister-in-law will handle it herself." Xin Zixuan was very moved.
Shaohua didn't think so, she knew very well that since Xin Zixuan would be so unbearable that she couldn't swallow it, and chose to complain to her sister-in-law, presumably things would only be worse than what she said. "Sister-in-law, no matter what, I'll help you!"
Although this is a sentence, it is enough for Xin Zixuan's heart to brighten.
Shaohua knew in his heart that Li Sijin was still very protective of Xin Zixuan, but his brother's concubine and brother-in-law's concubine were two completely different concepts. For her, she still can't accept seeing Xin Zixuan endure her grievances and serve a husband with other women. Since she can still stay by Xin Zixuan's side after being reborn, if she doesn't help her solve this trouble, how can she be worthy of their friendship for more than ten years.
However, Shaohua's idea was immediately vetoed by Wanhua, and in a word, "That's Xuyuan's business, and it has nothing to do with us." ”
"Third sister, how can you do this! Even if it's Xuyuan, my sister-in-law is very good to us, and I have a big brother. In fact, the eldest brother doesn't like the purple mandarin duck in his heart, even if it doesn't look at the face of the sister-in-law, then for the sake of the eldest brother, we have to help. Shaohua was unwilling to rashly say to Ling, and thought that Wanhua would want to help Li Sijin speak like he did last time when he helped Li Sinian.
Wanhua didn't think so, "Even if it's not a purple mandarin, then Bohm will naturally help the big brother find a red mandarin, a green mandarin, a blue mandarin, and a colorful mandarin, and when the time comes, will you help him refuse one by one?" When Wanhua thought that Xin Zixuan came to talk to Shaohua about this, she couldn't help but complain, "I knew that she didn't have a good heart and entrusted this kind of thing to you." ”
"I'm going to help my sister-in-law myself." Shaohua protested. "It's not that my sister-in-law can't give birth, it's just that she hasn't given birth yet, and Bohm wants to give a concubine to her eldest brother regardless of the two of them, isn't it too much?"
"Where is excessive, how I don't think. When she entered the Li family, she should also know that the eldest brother is the eldest son and grandson, and if she can't give birth to a son-in-law to the Li family, she can't stop it. This is what a big daughter-in-law should do. Wanhua said it as a matter of course.
Shaohua felt incredible, "Doesn't the third sister mind the third brother-in-law taking a concubine in the future?" ”
"Can that be the same, he, he's not the eldest son." Wanhua frowned, "Besides, even if it is nothing, it is better to keep my aunt's son in my name and keep it by my side." ”
"The third sister really thinks so." Shaohua looked a little lost.
As soon as she thought that someone would marry Yan Kaizhi with her, Shaohua felt uncomfortable and couldn't think rationally at all. But Wanhua said it so lightly, naturally and calmly, even if Xin Zixuan was the same as Xin Zixuan just now, she was obviously uncomfortable, but she smiled and said that she should do it.
Is this what the so-called ladies should do?
Thinking that although the Ling family was disgusted with the existence of the Su family, they had never denied her status, and the Liu family also had a He family by her side, and the Pang family had no concubines because her husband died early. It seems that everyone must have a concubine by her husband's side in order to appear tolerant and generous, and General Dingxi also has many concubines, but she has seen the existence of those women from the very beginning, because they are not only outstanding, but also not much different from ordinary maids.
She knew the difference between concubines and concubines for a long time, but that was the idea of the same generation, even if she was a concubine, she always had the same surname.
Now when she thinks that if she wants to marry the same man with another woman and give birth to a bunch of children, she will distinguish between concubines. Shaohua only felt a rumble in her head, a thought that she had never considered made her feel very irritable.
"Don't get involved, if she can't solve this matter by herself, then how can she support the whole family in the future." Wanhua looked at Shaohua with empty eyes and a stunned expression, as if he had been hit hard.
Shaohua suddenly came back to his senses and looked at Wanhua, not knowing what to say.
Wanhua sighed heavily, shook his head, and said, "I really don't know how you've spent all these years in Pu'an. But now that you're back, you see, there's no better city than the country. If you don't put away your messy ideas, you're going to suffer. Bohm has the reason to take a concubine for the eldest brother, and the eldest brother doesn't want to take a concubine and has the idea of a big brother, even if the eldest brother is in our room, what do you say, do you really want to let the eldest brother have no queen? ”
"It's not that my sister-in-law can't give birth." Shaohua muttered quietly.
"What if not?" Wanhua's words startled Shaohua, "Who knows if it's right?" That really can't be, when the eldest brother is seventy or eighty, he will have the same step-son as the third aunt? Seeing Shaohua's face about to cry, Wanhua said bitterly: "You haven't been by A-Niang's side when you are young, and it's normal to not understand this, but from today on, you must be clear about what you want to think about where you stand, Bohm and sister-in-law are both eldest daughters-in-law, and their considerations are not considered by us now." Maybe when you wait for you, Xu's Langjun is also the eldest son and grandson, or even several generations of single transmission, you will understand. ”
Shaohua wanted to say more, but he didn't know what to say.
