Chapter 118: Children of the Clan
"Money strings, you dare to scold me?" Jiao couldn't pretend to cry, got up and glared at his sister-in-law.
It just so happened that Qian Wen was out of school, he was already fifteen years old, and he was more than a head taller than the two women, and when he saw his mother and aunt facing each other, he rushed over without hesitation: "Qian Chuan, I haven't taken revenge on my mother last time." As soon as he reached out and grabbed his bun, it was a slap.
Qian String took advantage of the last fight, but this time it was particularly unlucky, at this moment, in this posture, she couldn't even shout, only passively beaten, she was in pain and angry, and after a while, she rolled her eyes and fainted.
Fortunately, someone heard Jiao's crying and reminded Yang Zhangwa to come and have a look, so he rescued Qian Chuanchuan in time.
"My wife was tortured and sick by your family, you say, how did this matter end?"
In Yang Zhangwa's angry gaze, Jiao's was scared, the man was not at home, what if the three of the Yang family were stunned and beat themselves and their son? Jiao's was a bully who was afraid of the hard, so he quickly pulled the corners of his mouth: "His uncle, it's not me, it's her aunt who wants to beat me, and Wen Cai is in a hurry to move." Then he felt that it was not good to let his son carry the black pot, so he quickly changed his rhetoric, "I, I will pay, you let the doctor take a good look at my sister." β
"Bring it!" That's what Yang Shanwa wants.
Jiao Shi shook and took out a handful of copper.
Yang Shanwa waved her hand, and slapped it: "Send it to Huazi-"
Jiao cried and took out a dime of silver from the house, about two or three taels, Yang Shanwa was satisfied, grabbed it and went home.
The affairs of the Qian family made Hu Pozi look at it, the old man was in bed, but the children were fighting and making trouble for property, this word soon spread all over Linjin Town, and as a result, Qian Xiangui returned home, and there was no one to dig the grave for Lao Jiao's family, let alone carry the coffin, and in the end, Qian Xiangui had to pay for it and hired more than a dozen people from other villages to handle the funeral.
There are also people who hire people to do funerals, which is regarded as a rare thing, and it spreads all over the township for a while, and the mayor feels extremely embarrassed, and finds Qian Xiangui afterwards: "You move away, otherwise, I will take the people in the town and drive you out." β
Qian Xiangui had just returned from the provincial capital, and he didn't know how the owner arranged for him, so he didn't dare to say hard words, lowered his head, and pleaded to the mayor: "I will find a way, and you will let me for a few more days." β
Turning around, he beat Jiao's up: "Daughter, daughter, you didn't teach me well, and you are not filial to your mother, so that I am not a person inside and outside now, I think you are tired of living." β
Jiao's only mourned and cried, and did not dare to justify, Qian Xiangui guarded the first seven, and then went to Fucheng, where he thought he had not passed the filial piety period and refused to use him. Qian Xiangui didn't care, and went directly to the provincial capital, he had already intended it, of course, he had a backhand, and sure enough, he was quickly settled, and in a shop selling mountain goods, he made an account room.
This mountain goods shop, is a capital matter of the Governor's Mansion, called Jiang Congyang, is a seven-grade official, he is fifty years old, only one son under his knees, and he is still sick, although he is good at housework, the family property is rich, but the heirs are not prosperous, and he is depressed all day long, and he often brings an entourage and drinks sullen outside.
On this day, Qian Xiangui took advantage of Jiang Congyang's drunkenness, pretended to meet here, and diligently supported the owner with his entourage to go back.
"Who are you, not bad?" Jiang Congyang patted Qian Xiangui on the shoulder.
"The small one is the account room of the mountain goods store in the east of the city, and the money is expensive first."
"Well, you're good."
Qian Xiangui was secretly happy in his heart, and pondered for a long time: "The master is in his youth, I'm afraid that I won't be able to do anything, it's just this wine, but I wear intestinal poison, so I have to stop it in moderation." β
Jiang Congyang was bitter in his heart, usually the people around him were arranged by his wife, and no one dared to persuade him like this, after listening to Qian Xiangui's words, he couldn't help but feel sad again, took his hand, and didn't speak.
Someone did something drunk, woke up and didn't remember anything, but some people remembered very clearly, this Jiang Congyang is the latter, that day he came out of the yamen, went to the shop to inspect as usual, and suddenly remembered Qian Xiangui, so he sent his entourage and went over alone.
Qian Xiangui was flattered and accompanied the owner to drink a few cups, but in fact, Jiang Congyang was sitting and drinking, he stood aside and served, and occasionally said a few words.
Qian Xiangui knew that Jiang Congyang's wife was particularly fierce, relying on the experience of his mother's brother being the governor of the Governor's Mansion, and the six-rank official, just pressing on the man's head, commanding at home, and not treating men as people.
Jiang Congyang's official son was promoted by his eldest brother, but his eldest brother's official luck was not good, and he originally climbed up, but because of his crime, he was beaten back to his original form and fell to the current sixth grade, otherwise he would already be the commander of the fourth grade. When Jiang Congyang was young, he was still a poor boy, relying on his eyes, willing to endure hardships, and getting the blue eyes of his father-in-law, and then he entered the Governor's Mansion, climbed up step by step from a small official, to the current seven-rank official, rich and powerful, his mind changed, his wife was strong, and there was no concubine room at home, he didn't mind this, a man wanted to put out the fire, where can't he go? There is no need to raise it in front of him, but what he regrets the most is that he only has one son, who is still a sick seedling, and this son is not prosperous, but the big thing, Jiang Congyang once got angry with his wife, hoping to buy a maid, go to the mother and keep the son, and give him the incense, but Mrs. Jiang, the vinegar jar, insists that her son is good, and will never agree to the man's request, Jiang Congyang is helpless, young and hopeful, as he gets older day by day, his heart becomes heavier and heavier, and he often gets drunk.
Qian Xiangui figured out this, and when he spoke, he intentionally or unintentionally appeased Jiang Congyang from this aspect, and the effect was not ordinarily good.
Jiang Congyang saw that he was about to reach the year of knowing the destiny of heaven, and his health was not as good as before, so he was inevitably disheartened, and felt sorry for his ancestors, every time Qian Xiangui talked to him, he always said that he was in good health, he was still old, and he had enough physical strength and ability to complete the major events in life, which made Jiang Congyang treat him better and better.
On this day, Jiang Congyang pretended to drink with Qian Xiangui, and the two came to the private room of a restaurant and dismissed his entourage, he looked at Qian Xiangui fixedly: "Mr. Qian, the old man's wish is up to you to fulfill it." β
"Don't be like this to the owner, Qian Xiangui's cheap life belongs to the owner's family, for the owner's family, go in the fire and go in the water." Jiang Congyang was greatly comforted, and waved his hand to let Qian Xiangui sit down: "I am in the west of the city, and I have opened a new fruit shop, and the family doesn't know, you find a proper person and record the shop in his name, and save the income first." β
"Hmm!"
"You help me find a woman of the right age, it is best to be innocent, if my Jiang family's life should not be extinguished, this woman can give birth to a son for me, I will definitely reward Mr. heavily."
"The things arranged by the owner, Xiangui will definitely do it well, you must not be polite to me, you don't have to kill Xiangui."
Jiang Congyang sighed, gave Qian Qian twenty taels of silver, and asked him to do something.
Sending Jiang Congyang away, Qian Xiangui resigned in the shop where he worked, rented a three-room large courtyard, asked someone to clean it, and then returned to Linjin Town, he rented the land to the Wang family, and even the yard was entrusted to the neighbor, not the money string here, but on the other side, the neighbor named Zhang Chunfeng, the family cleaned up and hired a car to go to Minghu City.
More than half a month later, Minghu City came to a family surnamed Jin, it was a woman with a son and a daughter, the daughter was seventeen or eighteen years old, plump, fair-skinned, and her face was round like the moon of fifteen, which is the most popular and easy to give birth to a man, Qian Xiangui took Jiang Congyang to see it secretly, Jiang Congyang saw that the girl was white and tender, and strong and young, and he was also very satisfied, he didn't dare to show off, only invited the neighbors to come over, ate a table of wine, and lied to the outside world that he was the male host of the house, and he changed his clothes and quietly interacted with this side.
Jiang Congyang's wife, Hu, is naturally not so easy to fool, Jiang Congyang quietly bought a mother-in-law next to his wife according to what Qian Xiangui said, and drugged his wife's diet. Hu often felt flustered and short of breath, tired, and just wanted to sleep when he was free, and when the doctor came, he couldn't diagnose anything wrong, and he took a lot of medicine, but it didn't work.
Hu has no energy, naturally he can't stare at men like before, Jiang Congyang has room to turn around, and the number of times he goes to the west of the city is increasing, and in less than three months, his outer room, which is as fat as a fat goose, vomits incessantly, is acidophilic, and is pregnant with a child.
It is said that sour men and spicy women, seeing that women can eat half a pot of green apricots in a meal, Jiang Congyang happily woke up from a dream, in order to thank his benefactor, as soon as he stretched out his hand, he gave Qian Xiangui a hundred taels of silver as a reward, and Qian Xiangui was so beautiful that his nose bubbled.
Helping Jiang Congyang take care of a small storefront, Qian Xiangui also found some business tricks, plus Jiang Congyang's network support, Qian Xiangui became more and more comfortable, this shop, he used his son's name, income, and Jiang Congyang asked him to settle the outer room, the same as Qian Xiangui's own, his life was moisturized again.
At this time, the official can also guess that the family surnamed Jin is the Jiao family with their children, and Jiang Congyang's outer room is Qian Wenyan. Daddy actually gave her to an old man who was older than her father, and Qian Wenyan didn't have trouble, but she couldn't stand Jiang Congyang's money, and she gave clothes, jewelry, and delicious food and drink, so Qian Wenyan forgot her earliest dissatisfaction.
Their family is a slut who has milk and is a mother, Qian Wenyan is covered in silk and satin, and gold and silver jewelry is full of heads, where does it matter whether the man is old or young, whether he is married by Ming Media or a partial room in the outer room?
Jiao's family had already lost one daughter, and when he heard it, he asked his second daughter to do such a cheap thing, and he was a little reluctant at first, but he was slapped to the ground by Qian Xiangui: "Say, it's something that looks down on you and gives you a shameless face, and you really treat yourself as a dish." β
Jiao's during this time, has been living in remorse, before he was at home, the man spoke softly, it turned out that he fell in love with the private money in the hands of his mother-in-law, now, Qian Xiangui took out of his mother-in-law's box in his hand, and revealed his original form, and said to her that he turned his face and turned his face, either beating or scolding, never had a good voice, Jiao felt that he was like the old mother of the Qian family, serving Qian Wenyan and Qian Wencai, and serving Qian Xiangui to eat, drink and wear, and accompany Qian Xiangui to bed, not to mention how aggrieved, at this time, she shed tears and cried: "Auntie, I'm sorry, I regret itβ"
Jiao's didn't reflect on himself, the eldest daughter is not a thing, why is the second daughter like this? Especially the son, who has been changed to Jin, is wearing the good clothes given by Jiang Congyang, and still looks like a rich young master, and he doesn't ask how this thing came from, he has no shame, and the child is also taught to be like this, what is she sad about?
Hearing that Qian Xiangui left with his family, Qian Xiancheng breathed a sigh of relief, there are too many embarrassing things in the big house, although he has announced that he will break off with that side, but people are still used to calling him the second room of the Qian family, that is to say, he and Qian Xiangui always have a constant connection, and he always can't help but feel ashamed when those embarrassing things come out.
Wen Jin also breathed a sigh of relief, Qian Xiangui was like a hungry wolf waiting for an opportunity to pounce on them and bite them, making her very hard to take precautions, and now, the problem has finally been solved.
This year, the thousands of kiwifruit that were originally raised have already borne fruit, and the small saplings, although there are only about 20 of them, have only grown to the size of walnuts, which also makes Wen Jin very happy.
There are seedlings that do not worry about growing, planting a cash cow, and naturally opening up the source of wealth, Wen Jin firmly believes that his life will get better and better.
Shi Zhenzong wrote a letter, they walked for half a year, only to the battlefield, not long after the enemy attacked the camp, fortunately the commander had been prepared, set up a chain array, the attack on the camp of the enemy annihilated, he made a great contribution in a battle, hacked to death an enemy general who stole the camp, and now has become a small leader of more than 50 people.
Shi Yaozong has also grown into an adult, he took the letter to Wen Jin, and was especially proud of his brother: "My father fought for two years before he was promoted to the small team leader, and now he has been in Western Xinjiang for eight years, and he is a general, it seems that my brother is much more powerful than my father." β
"Well, I'm happy for your brother too."
Wen Jin was happy, not only because of Shi Zhenzong, but also because Shen Jun was mentioned in this letter.
Shen Jun arrived earlier than Shi Zhenzong, and was familiar with the people in the marshal's big tent, and directly entered the commandery, this chain of formations was proposed by him, supplemented by the marshal's strategists, and after a victory, almost the whole army knew that there was a very powerful strategist next to the marshal.
However, Shi Zhenzong's letter said that Shen Jun was not called Shen Jun there, but Qian Jun.
Wen Jin was not surprised, that day at the second uncle's house, when Shen Jun threatened the two officials, he said that his surname was Qian.
Shen Jun's unconcealed extravagance once made Wen Jin guess that his father might be a big official, but she didn't expect that Shen Jun, no, should be called Qian Jun, turned out to be a child of the clan and a royal bloodline.
Wen Jin didn't care if that person's surname was Shen or Qian, anyway, he was fine, so he was relieved. At this time, she felt that she and Qian Jun were thousands of miles apart, heaven and earth, not to mention that Qian Jun would come to her within five years, it is estimated that in this life, they are trains running on two tracks, and they will never meet.
Wen Jin only felt bored, and seemed to be a little out of breath, she beat her spirits, said a few words to the Hou family, and then took her leave.
On this day, outside Wen Jin's orchard, a two-wheeled carriage came, although it was two mules that pulled the cart, it also made the people who met it dumbfounded, because of the war, the horses of the Jurong Dynasty were very lacking, and the price of a horse, in conversion, was no less than the original imported BMW car in Wen Jin's later life, and there was no market for it, and it was not sold.
Therefore, even two mules are rare.
The two-driven mule cart followed the main road of Wen Jin's orchard and stopped in front of Wen Jin's small courtyard, followed by the servant behind the car, with the consent of the owner of the car, ran over and knocked on the door: "Hey, is anyone home?" β
Huang ran over and opened the door: "Excuse me, are you ββ? β
"Our master is Master Shen of the Shen Mansion in Shanyang County, and I asked your man to go over and talk back."
Huang was taken aback: "I, my man doesn't know where to go." β
The people in the carriage snorted heavily, obviously this is a servant, his entourage is so eyeless, although the Qian family is not famous, but can have more than 2,000 acres of land, and also plant kiwi fruit, which is rare in the world, how can there be no descendants, just an ordinary farmer? Although this yard is a little too small, it does look like an ordinary farmer.
The servant glanced at the carriage and changed his words: "Go and call your master to come over, and it was Master Shen of the Shen Mansion who asked her to reply." β
Huang glanced at the two-horse carriage and hurriedly replied: "You wait, I'll pass the word." Covering the door, he trotted into the inner courtyard and reported to Wen Jin.
What did he say? Let me go out and talk back? When I am his Shen family, can't I? Wen Jin glanced at the Huang family, a peasant woman who had never seen the world, wasn't she suddenly frightened by the two-wheeled mule cart? didn't say a word of criticism, only said lightly, "Go out and say, I'm not available, and then you close the door and come in, what should you do." β
Huang Shi was frightened, feeling that his master was a little too bold, and she dared to offend anyone outside.
Wen Jin was really angry when he saw that Huang didn't move, and glanced over coldly.
"Yes!" Huang was swept by Wen Jin's eyes, and hurriedly ran out, she only learned the power of the little master today, it turned out that a person with such a pleasant face was so terrible when he was angry.
The people waiting outside heard the footsteps of trotting all the way, and a smile appeared on their faces, but they didn't expect only the Huang family to come out alone: "Our master is not available." β
Before the Shen family servant could react, the Huang family had already turned around and went in, closing the door.
The people in the carriage were furious, and before the servant could bring a low stool, he had already jumped out of it: "Smash the door!" β
The servant didn't dare to move, the master he was with today didn't look like a prince even if he wore a dragon robe, did he get off the carriage like this?
Shen Qingwu is just a side branch of the Shen family in Shanyang, his mother was in front of Shen Wan's wife, and said all the good things before letting him come out and walk around, but he didn't expect that the first time he did things alone, he ran into a hard stubble, he thought that when he played the brand of the Shen family in Shanyang, the other party didn't nod his head and bow, what did he say? What can I do if I am not good at being a teacher? "Call the door!" Shen Qingwu didn't dare to be arrogant, so he changed his words.
