Chapter Seventy-Eight: Red Apricot Out of the Wall
Updated: 2014-05-02
Su Yuwu pressed the corner of his eyes with a handkerchief, and then said: "Old Lord Song didn't pass the position of the valve master to your second cousin Song before he died, you should know this, right?" ”
"I heard about it when I was on the road." Wei Changying sighed and said, "To be honest, although I have some regrets, I also have to admit that Second Cousin Song is really not suitable to take over Jiangnan Hall. Grandfather did this, which was good for Song Er's cousin and Jiang Nantang. ”
Su Yuwu nodded and said, "Originally, the old lord of Song passed the position of lord to a son of the side branch before his death, named Song Wuji, who is more than ten years older than your second cousin of Song, but the generation is the same. He also said that your second cousin Song would study behind closed doors in the future, and don't ask about the affairs of the clan again...... Your second cousin Song also agreed. ”
Wei Changying frowned and said, "Why has something happened again?" ”
"The old lord of Song is also very hard-working, worried that after he goes, his descendants will be treated badly, so he didn't pick people among his children, so as not to make your second cousin Song suffer in the future; I didn't pick people from those who were younger than your second cousin Song, lest the seniority be too low, even if he was a few years older and the lord of the valve, it would be difficult to suppress the elders in the clan, and when the time came, the people's hearts would be uneven, which would be unfavorable to the Song family. Su Yuli said, "The problem is that even so, Song Wuji's position is not very stable. ”
Wei Chang said clearly: "He is a disciple of a side branch, and he suddenly sat in the position of the lord of the valve. Even if my grandfather ordered it himself, after my grandfather went, there were people below who were not convinced. Besides, this man had no reputation in the past...... It's just that there are many children in the Song family, and since his grandfather chose him, I think he should also have the ability to take charge of Jiangnan Hall, right? ”
Su Yuli said: "According to what Yu Wu wrote to me last time, this Song Wuji was originally cultivated by the old lord of Song, and he was going to be your cousin Song as a helper. It's just the Song family...... Your second cousin Song's 'temperament' is too kind, even if he has help, he may not be able to be a family, but it restricts Song Wuji, which is ......"
After a pause, she waved her hand to let her henchmen go out too, and then said in a low voice, "Didn't Cousin Shen San tell you?" It seems that I am afraid that you will '' your heart...... Alas, I don't know if I should tell you or not? ”
Wei Changying pursed his lips: "Cousin, do you mean...... The affairs of the Song family, husband, did he 'intervene'? ”
"He's not the only one, there are many people who 'interfere'." Su Yuli said softly, "Who doesn't know that this world's famous 'door' is the Wei family and the Song family are the richest?" In particular, Jiangnan is rich in products, such as today's big 'chaos', many local people are not able to make a living, and Jiangnan still maintains a bit of prosperity in the prosperous era...... That is to say, the south of the Yangtze River is surrounded by heroes, restraining each other, and there are two famous 'gates' of Jiangnan Song and Hongzhou Gu, so as to avoid the soldiers sweeping and sweeping...... But I can't avoid it for long! ”
She bit her 'lip', "It is said that Hongzhou Gu is inclined to smell the son, and the Song family, Song Wuji is naturally ...... because he is the person of the old lord of Song Inclined to the Shen family. ”
Wei Changying understood: "Those who want to compete for the position of the lord of the Song family naturally cannot continue to choose the Shen family...... They also chose Wen Lingzi? ”
"Not quite." Su Yuli shook her head and said, "Have you forgotten those people in the south?" ”
“…… It's really troublesome. Wei Changying muttered, "This Song Wuji doesn't know how much ability he has, whether he can train the clansmen well." ”
"If you want to come to these things, you'll have to 'worry about' before." Su Yuli was talked about like this, and the pain of her parents' misfortune was much smaller, and she patted Wei Changying's arm comfortingly, and said, "Let's talk about the backyard - by the way, let me tell you a not very good thing, the young lady who went to Xiliang with you back then of the Deng family was the one who married Xilin Zhou, and it is gone." It's just two days ago, and the Zhou family doesn't seem to have handed you a post? ”
Wei Changying was taken aback: "Deng Wanwan?!" ”
Su Yuli sighed: "Isn't it? ”
"How many years younger than me, although she is weaker, but not so thin? What's going on? Wei Changying asked in surprise, "Is it production or ......?" ”
Su Yuli shook her head and said, "This matter seems to be very complicated, Deng Xiangzhi - it is her brother-in-law - almost beat Zhou Jianxian to death afterwards!" But even if she was dragged away at that time, it is said that Zhou Jianxian was already dying, and the old lady of the Zhou family knelt in front of Duanmu Mansion in person, and Miss Duanmu Ba said that she had always 'befriended' Deng Wanwan, and the Zhou family had treated Deng Wanwan badly, so she would never save the Zhou family again......"
Wei Changying was surprised: "Such a big thing, why haven't I heard any rumors?" ”
"The old lady of the Zhou family went to the Duanmu family to kneel in front of the 'door' of the Duanmu family last night when Zhou Jianxian was about to die, you came here early in the morning, where did the family have time to tell you? I heard about it shortly before you came. Su Yuli sighed, "Okay, let's talk about the cause of Deng Wanwan's death - I don't know what kind of madness the Zhou family had, it was Zhou Jianxian who accidentally beat her to death." I heard that there was a 'hole' in her head, and the Zhou family tried every means to hide it, but Deng Xiang took this younger sister with his hand, and he was young and gone, how could he just look at it from afar? He went up and hugged Deng Wan's head and cried...... I didn't cry twice before I found out that something was wrong - of course I had to ask Zhou Jianxian for clarification! ”
“…… Isn't the Zhou family crazy?! Wei Changying said in shock, "Slow to say that the 'door' of the Zhou family is not necessarily higher than that of the Deng family, even if the son of the valve is married to the 'daughter' of the family, the husband and wife are not in harmony, and they will quarrel a few words behind closed doors, and it will be very serious if they are anxious to push a few handfuls." If it is passed out, the elders will move the family law...... actually beat the wife of a famous media to death?! The Zhou family doesn't want to marry a wife in the future? ”
At the beginning, the eldest lady of Fufeng Hall, the Qian family, was heartbroken at the funeral of her sister-in-law, and she took out her anger at the daughter-in-law's 'woman', and 'forced' Shen Zangzhu to commit suicide by touching the coffin - this is still not dead, but after that, the young son of the Qian family, Su Yuliang, couldn't hire the right noble 'girl' at the 'door', if it weren't for the Pei family's Pei Meiniang, it would be difficult for Miss Pei to get out of the cabinet, and the Pei family might not be willing to give Pei Liniang to the Qian family as a daughter-in-law!
The Su family is one of the six valves in the country, far from being comparable to families like Zhou and Deng! It's still because the Qian family almost 'forced' his daughter-in-law to die, but it was just a close deal, and it was 'forced' to die, not directly killed! caused his son's marriage to be greatly affected!
Now the Zhou family actually killed his wife with his own hands...... Will the children of this family get married in the future?
Wei Changying couldn't figure it out, this was not well-known among the former princes of the imperial capital, but since Deng Zongqi was willing to let his sister marry him, he was definitely not a bad person-what happened to Jianxian this week?
She asked urgently, "The Zhou family hasn't removed the name of this Zhou Jianxian genealogy yet?" That week, the old lady still dared to ask Xin Miao to save her son?! ”
It stands to reason that if no one knows about this kind of thing, then the family will definitely keep it hidden.
Since he was caught by Deng Zongqi...... The Zhou family can't deny it, it must be to drive Zhou Jianxian out of the family' and remove the genealogy, so as not to be dragged down by him and affect the Heclan!
If this is the case, then unless the old lady Zhou is willing to follow her son and be kicked out of the Zhou family, how can she openly beg Duanmu Xinmiao?
Su Yuli's face was a little strange, and she said, "Things are weird here!" Zhou Jianxian was beaten to the point of dying, and after calling someone to save him, he told him how he missed - he didn't beat Deng Wanwan once or twice, he had been ...... a few years ago"
Wei Changying hurriedly interrupted her words and said in surprise: "What about the bend? Don't say it either? ”
"yes, I haven't said it." Su Yuli sighed and said, "So Zhou Jianxian said that Deng bent the red apricot out of the wall, and he didn't dare to tell Deng Xiangzhi because he was so angry that he could only argue that his sister's 'temperament' was gentle, tolerant and kind...... But outsiders who know a little about Deng Wanwan's behavior know that she will not be so cowardly that she will be repeatedly beaten by her husband for no reason and not say a word......"
"How can the red apricot go out of the wall?!" Wei Changying felt that the whole person was going to be confused, "What the hell is going on?" Cousin, can you tell me from the beginning? ”
Su Yuli said: "That's what I just said, I don't know anything else: Zhou Jianxian started a few years ago, probably after his filial piety, and began to suspect that Deng Wanwan had someone outside. According to him, he interrogated Deng Wanwan after becoming suspicious, but Deng Wanwan just didn't admit it. He also found an opportunity to follow Deng Wanwan out of the 'door', but once he chased after him, he saw a man's figure fleeing quickly, and he didn't find any other evidence...... After that, he held a grudge and couldn't ask for it, so he kept beating Deng Wanwan! ”
After a pause, she said, "This time Deng Wanwan died, it was because he suddenly hated her again, and beat her with 'jade' Ruyi, but after drinking a few glasses of wine, he lost his sense of proportion under his hands, and this is ......."
Wei Changying frowned and said, "Based on my previous understanding of Wanwan, she is not a person who would do such a thing that does not abide by the 'woman' way!" ”
Deng Xiangzhi didn't believe it either, and the Deng family was also very suspicious. all thought that Zhou Jianxian was afraid of the consequences of killing his wife and deliberately slandered. Because he doesn't have any evidence......," Su Yuli said, "Now the only handle of the Zhou family is that Deng Wanwan has been beaten for so long, but he has never told his mother." According to the Zhou family, if it weren't for the lack of heart, the 'door' lintel of the Deng family would be no worse than the Zhou family, why did Deng Wanwan endure it silently? ”
"Maybe she's afraid of causing trouble for her brother?" Wei Changying has never seen Zhou Jianxian, and she has no 'friendship' with the Zhou family, but when the Rong people besieged the city, the brothers and sisters of the Deng family had a friendship with her, and she was rescued by Deng Zongqi once before she left the cabinet, of course, it was towards the Deng family, and she sneered at the moment, "Or I am afraid that my mother's husband's family will have a dispute for her...... It's not uncommon for people to have this kind of 'nature' in their hearts, why didn't they trouble them before, but they still lost money?! ”
Su Yuli was about to speak, when there was a sudden knock on the 'door', followed by a maid who said with some eagerness: "Madam, someone from outside has come to report, the eldest lady heard that the Zhou family said that Mrs. Deng is 'lewd'." After the woman's end, she angrily took people out of the 'door', as if she was going to Zhou's house to find trouble! What do you think of this ......? ”
“…… No one in the Pei family stopped her? Su Yuli choked and asked angrily.
The envoy said cautiously: "The second lady of the Pei family has not been in good health for the past two days, and the third young lady of their family needs to 'serve' in front of the bed, and she really can't leave." So send someone to our house, please come over and watch a little bit......"
Su Yuli's face was very unsightly, and Wei Changying asked softly, "Did they deliberately avoid it?" ”
"Isn't it?" Su Yuli snorted coldly, "The Pei family is Rouzhang's outside, and they spoil her up and down. The second lady and the third young lady are very clever, and she won't stop her from doing anything...... lest you turn back and be reprimanded by your husband...... Alas! I have to snub you today, Rouzhang's temper, I won't go and take a look, I have to make a big deal - you said this, it's obviously a matter of the Deng and Zhou families, even if she has a 'friendship' with Deng Wanwan, it's just a blatant refusal to be treated like Miss Duanmu Ba, what's the matter with her hitting the 'door' like this?! ”
Wei Changying stood up and said, "Cousin, you are still wearing your uncle's filial piety, we are relatives, we only need to take the May Xiaogong, and now it is enough." Rouzhang and I are also familiar with each other, and he went to look for me two days ago...... I'll do it for you. Speaking of which, when I came out of the imperial capital, the brothers and sisters of the Deng family took good care of me, and now that they are gone, even if the Zhou family and the Deng family did not invite me, I will give her a ride. ”
Her words were obviously about to pull the shelf, Su Yuli couldn't help but remind her: "Don't be too rash, the situation in the imperial capital is very delicate now!" ”
