Chapter 24: Father-in-law and Mother (II)

Wei Changying was speechless for a moment before he said, "Stepmother? ”

"Before I came to Xiliang, I recognized Sister Wei, your father-in-law and mother-in-law as my father-in-law, but this matter has not been announced yet." Duanmu Xinmiao said lazily, "After all, Brother-in-law Wei has to be diagnosed by me, and my father-in-law and stepmother have high hopes for Brother-in-law Wei...... What do you say the Shen family is going to do? ”

Wei Changying was so stressed by her that she almost didn't jump up, but after thinking about it, she sat back again, and said lightly: "I will accompany you to treat your husband, and I have been caught and boiled by someone for the 'medicine'!" What can you do in front of me? Don't you want to die yourself, and don't you feel sorry for your eldest sister and nephew who are far away in the imperial capital? ”

"Sister Wei, you really don't know anything about medical skills! Or do you think that Brother-in-law Wei has a strong body and bones, and a little movement on the 'medicine' prescription can't help him? When Duanmu Xinmiao talked about medical skills, his face was full of energy, and he snickered, "I won't talk about it anymore, does Sister Wei think that the 'medicine' I used to soak my clothes is only one kind of Ten Nights Blood?" And I have to be touched by someone else to make my robe work? ”

She smiled leisurely, "I didn't do it, otherwise, Sister Wei, although you are excellent in martial arts, you don't want to let you go, but I really want to put you down...... It's not that hard! ”

"Even if you have a weak relationship with your father, you don't care about what will happen to the splendid Duanmu family after doing this. But you are young, and you have a sister and nephew to worry about, so you can't really see death as home? Wei Changying was not 'provoked' by her, and said lukewarmly, "Even the saint doesn't dare to tell you openly that you want to attack my husband while he is treating my husband, no matter what you say, you are the 'daughter' of the valve!" As long as you don't get dizzy, you should know that no matter what kind of promise the Holy God gives you, if something happens to my husband in your hands, you and your father will not end well! The Shen family and the Duanmu family are fighting to the death - the saint doesn't know how happy he should be! Besides, with Queen Mother Cai and His Royal Highness King Cai, the saint may not be able to deal with his grandson ruthlessly; If you offend my Shen family, the saint will definitely not be able to protect King Cai's mother and son! For such a small matter, there is no need for you to have an extra pair of fathers and mothers! ”

She glanced at Duanmu Xinmiao, "What the hell is going on?" ”

Since Duanmu Xinmiao took out all the letters, he would not hide it: "I came all the way to treat Brother-in-law Wei, but it was the Holy Lord who sent Deng Guifei to hint. Although the concubine didn't ask me to do anything when treating Brother-in-law Wei, ...... I was caught up in the matter for nothing, how can my family not worry? ”

She sighed, "No, recognize a stepfather and mother, take the kindness of treating Brother-in-law Wei, and exchange them for their commitment to protect my eldest sister and nephew on the spot." Although there was no shadow at the time, everyone was relieved! ”

"The matter of you becoming Shen Jiayi's 'daughter'...... Who knows about the imperial capital? Wei Changying asked with a frown.

Duanmu Xinmiao said: "I'm not familiar with my stepmother, how do I know what my stepmother will do?" But my stepmother might have taken advantage of the New Year's Eve to spread the word, and if she did, it would be known to everyone in the imperial capital. ”

Wei Changying couldn't help but be surprised, and said, "Mrs. Zhou? ”

Her mind turned, "My mother-in-law doesn't matter, no matter what she does, my father-in-law's will must be behind." Your mother...... Ling Tang did this, but he didn't know what Ling Zun meant? ”

As far as she knows, Duanmu Xinmiao's stepmother Zhou Yueguang was born in a family, and several stepsons and stepdaughters were older than her when she entered the 'door', and the backyard was full of all kinds of 'flowers' and 'flowers' and grasses, so even if she was dozens of years younger than her husband, she was quite liked by Duanmu Xinmiao's father, but the road to the family was still very bumpy.

At the beginning, Zhou Yueguang found an excuse to ask the concubines and stepsons in the backyard who were harsh on the young 'daughters' by taking back Duanmu Xinmiao, who had lived outside for several years. She used this incident to show that she was considerate and loving to the 'daughter' of the yuan match, and won a good name, and then her status gradually stabilized.

However, Zhou Yueguang's heirs are not deeply related, and they have no children of their own. Without the support of her own flesh and blood, her status is not stable, and she is also the eldest lady of the Duanmu family who is justified and in charge of the family;

Even if it is a worship father-in-law and mother-in-law, unless the parents are not there or far apart, and they can't ask for instructions in time, they always have to ask their parents for their intentions.

What's more, everyone like Duanmu Xinmiao, even though Shen Xuanfu's status as a 'woman' as her stepfather and stepmother did not insult her, however, ...... Duanmu Xinmiao's parents are complete, even if Zhou Yueguang is a stepmother, she is always a serious mother, what does she do to worship Shen Xuanfu's 'wife' as a stepfather?

The most important thing is that the Duanmu family actually agreed? The Duanmu family has been in obscurity since the fourth prince lost power!

The Shen family is now on the cusp of the 'waves', how could the Duanmu family rashly give a 'daughter' of the sect to the husband and 'wife' of the Shen family to be a righteous 'daughter'?

Without the permission of Duanmu Xinmiao's father, could it be that Zhou Yueguang was the master alone? Then she is too bold! Even if it is hindered by Shen Xuanfu's identity as a 'woman', after the raw rice is cooked and the rice is matured, the Duanmu family is embarrassed to stand up and say that they don't know or don't have this plan, but they will definitely not let Zhou Yueguang go in private!

Xilin Zhou's 'door', Zhou Yueguang died violently, and the Zhou family could only believe in the Duanmu family.

Wei Changying is so suspicious of 'confusion', very suspicious of 'confusion'.

Under her suspicious gaze, she only heard Duanmu Xinmiao say lazily: "My father also agreed!" It's just that I'm a 'girl' child, worship a father-in-law, do I want my father to '' my heart personally? Just let my stepmom talk to the outside. ”

"Listening to you say that is weird and random?" Wei Changying groaned for a moment, but he had a point in his heart: It seems that the Duanmu family suspects that the saint has the intention of killing people with a knife - this is not for other children, this is not for extraordinary reasons, few children betray the family, let alone the descendants of the sect who enjoy the honor of the clan.

However, this eighth lady Duanmu Xinmiao is not close to the clansmen at all for various reasons, and her relationship with her biological father is not as close as that of her stepmother Zhou Yueguang! In this world, except for Sister Duanmu Weimiao's mother and son, and Master Ji Quai, she really didn't care about the life or death of others!

It's just that Duanmu Weimiao's mother and son are the saint's daughter-in-law' and grandson, who knows if Duanmu Xinmiao will be confused for her sister and nephew...... The Duanmu family is afraid that they will be too obscure and will be bullied by the saints...... No, the saint meant to let Duanmu Xinmiao inquire about Xiliang's information, but the Duanmu family gave the Shen family a righteous 'daughter'-

Holy Lord, you still don't want to make up your mind at our house, it's urgent, let's join forces, you won't be able to sleep even more, right? You have been mediocre for all these years, and there have long been slanderous words in the market, but we pressed them all and didn't let you know, so as not to ruin your interest in the harem. As a courtier, considering you like this, isn't it good for you to continue to stay in the harem to accompany your concubines who are more than fresh 'flowers' and older than your granddaughters?

Thinking about this section, Wei Changying took a sip of the tea that had cooled down and said.

Duanmu Xinmiao looked at her and smiled: "How solemn can it be?" If it's serious, even if your stepmother hides it from Sister Wei, Grandmother Ling Aunt Ling will send someone to report to you, isn't it? You are a man with many elders! ”

After a pause, Duanmu Xinmiao spread his hands and smiled, explaining the reason, "I, a 'girl' child who has not been out of the cabinet, has traveled thousands of miles to Xiliang to see the injury of a man who has already married a wife and has nothing to do with me. Even if you are accompanied by Sister Wei, your wife, you can do such a thing with my identity, and it will be detrimental to my reputation, isn't it? So my stepmother said, what is the matter with entering the man's inner room without a name or share? However, my medical skills are not good enough to diagnose and treat people without even seeing people, so what are you doing in Xiliang? ”

Wei Changying understood: "So your stepmother proposed to let you worship your father-in-law?" ”

Duanmu Xinmiao laughed and said: "Otherwise, how can a person like me, who has been 'spending' his mind on the path of medical science and 'medicine' all day long, come up with a good idea to protect my sister and nephew with the two banners of the Shen family's lord?" ”

The Duanmu family, Mrs. Zhou, who filled the house, was not famous among the noble 'women' in the imperial capital, even if she co-opted Duanmu Xinmiao to deal with the 'servant' concubines and concubines, and also fell into the hands of a virtuous name, most of the elders of each family saw it in their eyes. But in the end, it's just used in the backyard, a big family with a high 'door', who doesn't have a lot of hands to be a wife?

From this point of view, Zhou Yueguang can only be regarded as a decent lady. Not to mention comparing with Mrs. Song, the older generation of ladies who have made many people jealous when they mention it so far, even in Mrs. Su's generation, such as Liu Ruoye's mother Zhang Shaoguang's 'shrewd' evaluation, is also higher than her.

Although Wei Changying knew that there was such a Mrs. Zhou, he never paid much attention to it.

After listening to Duanmu Xinmiao's words, he was puzzled and asked, "What is the benefit of Lingtang?" ”

Zhou Yueguang is not Duanmu Xinmiao's mother-in-law, and she has never even seen Duanmu Weimiao, the titular eldest 'daughter' - when Zhou Yueguang passed the 'door', Duanmu Weimiao had already become the queen mother, and at that time, she closed the 'door' and couldn't come out, only seeing her grandmother and sister-in-law, so the titular mother 'daughter' actually hadn't seen it - she planned for her step-'daughter' like this, it is impossible for her to fall into the reputation of a "considerate 'daughter'", right?

Of course, it is also possible that the Duanmu family made such a decision after knowing that Concubine Deng Guifei was threatening Duanmu Xinmiao, and asked Zhou Yueguang to come forward and tell the step-daughter. If this is the case, it means that the Duanmu family is still very cautious about the saint, in case the saint is not intimidated, but is even more 'aroused' hostility towards the Duanmu family, the Duanmu family can also say: Saint, you see, this is a daughter-in-law of my family who feels sorry for the 'daughter', and she is a 'woman' Taoist who doesn't understand so much, so she wants to keep her reputation for the 'daughter'. has the name of a righteous 'girl', and it is right for her sister to travel thousands of miles to save her brother's life...... It has nothing to do with the current situation and political affairs!

However, Wei Changying instinctively felt that this matter was not so simple - Zhou Yueguang was not the 'shrewd' lady in charge of the imperial capital, but she also had her own hills and valleys in her 'chest'. Even if she didn't think of this before, or she couldn't 'intervene' in it, she was completely ordered by her husband and clan to tell her step-daughter like this, where could she not take the opportunity to 'get' some benefits?
