Chapter 6: Crying
The fact is indeed as Wei Changying expected, for three days in a row, she was close to the distance and seniority of the bloodline of the Yan branch, starting from the uncles of the Shen Xuan brothers, and visited several elders in Xiliang, crying about Shen Zangfeng's grievances: "I received news that my husband was seriously injured, and the concubine was anxious in the imperial capital, and begged my father and mother to send the concubine to visit. I thought that since I didn't receive any news about my husband's injury on the way, would my husband be much better? Before and after, counting three months, even if it hurts the muscles and bones, it should be complete, but when I came here, I saw my husband lying on the couch dying! ”
Wei Changying added fuel and vinegar to tell that Shen Chufu's 'woman' knew that Shen Zangfeng was seriously injured, and even transferred away the original few 'women' in his yard, leaving only a 'woman' who couldn't do anything except dress up and didn't know where God came from to serve: "Uncle and aunt are both elders, and they are the most sensible!" Since I know that my husband is still lying on the couch here, I can't even get up by myself, and I don't have a group of healthy servants to serve me, what kind of life are you living? The poor husband was so badly injured that he couldn't see anything at all! His little servant Shen Die, his uncle and aunt, asked several times to send more people to serve his husband, but they only cared about the left and right and said anything else - so that Shen Die didn't dare to leave his husband's left and right, and he was also loyal to him! Otherwise, the concubine can't imagine what the husband will do to call the clan uncle and aunt! ”
No matter what your uncles and mothers-in-law think in your hearts, you must always comfort her.
After taking a break and gaining strength, Wei Changying continued: "This time the concubine came over, and the husband was rarely sober, and after knowing it, he sent Shen Die to the 'gate' of the city to greet him. The concubine only said that Shen Die greeted him like this! Who thought of the husband's inner room, and saw the nephew Shen Youjia included, only to know later that it was Shen Die's heart for the husband, and he couldn't resist the uncle and aunt of the clan not to add people, so he had to invite the nephew of the Jia clan to take care of the husband! Knowing this, the concubine would not let him go to the city 'gate' to pick him up! ”
Speaking of this, Wei Changying couldn't help but burst into tears, pinched the handkerchief and said, "Uncle and aunt, do you know what the people sent by the clan uncle and the clan aunt to serve the husband are doing?" ”
On this day, she visited a cousin of Shen Xuan, whose name was Shen Xun and his wife was Huo. Shen Xunfu's 'woman' would ask together: "What to do?" ”
"The one who makes the 'woman' dress up in flowers, and apply fat powder and dye her nails...... In this cold day, I really don't know where she is a 'girl' to 'get' a phoenix 'flower'! Not to mention that the master who was going to serve was seriously injured, and she had the leisure to dress herself?! What kind of heart is this! Wei Changying cried, "She is still pouring tea alone outside!" Just throw his husband to Shen Youjia! The concubine later asked Shen Die, and said that since the husband arrived in Xiliang, he has been very respectful to the uncle and aunt of the clan, and he has not been disrespectful at all! Why did the uncle and aunt treat him like this? The concubine is a 'female' stream, and she is a junior, but she feels sorry for her husband but she doesn't dare to take the uncle and aunt of the clan......"
"But when the concubine asked the uncle and aunt of the clan, the uncle actually bit back! said that the concubine was jealous of the beauty of the 'woman', and she was close to 'serving' her husband, so she deliberately looked for trouble! Wei Changying wiped her eyes with a handkerchief, and said with a sneer, "The concubine is so big, I have never heard of anything more ridiculous than this!" Let's not mention that the 'woman' posture and 'color' may be better than ordinary people, and it is nothing more than this in the eyes of the concubine! Let's just say that when the husband was in the imperial capital, what kind of beauty had he never seen? When did the concubine stop him from coming? If your uncle and aunt don't believe it, you can write to the imperial capital to ask your father and mother, and ask if your concubine is such a stingy person! ”
Huo Shi hurriedly said: "What kind of letter is there to write about?" The 'daughter' of Fengzhou Wei's is a virtuous virtue known at home! What's more, you are still the person personally hired by the lord of the valve, the tutor of the grandmother Mrs. Song, although we are far away in Xiliang, we have also heard of it, that is a well-known rule! ”
Wei Changying thanked her for her praise first, and replied: "Although the concubine is not sensitive, she is also a 'woman', a young court training, and the elders' teachings, always thinking, and always forgetting." Uncle clan is such an accusation, and the concubine naturally doesn't dare to accept it! And the concubine thought that the clan uncle's attitude and practice towards her husband and concubine were really strange! In addition, the concubine heard that her husband had been assassinated in the middle, and the more she thought about it, the more scared she became...... This time, I hope that my uncle and uncle will be the master of the concubine! ”
Shen Xunfu's 'women' all thought in their hearts: Now everyone in the city says that you locked up Shen Chufu's 'women' and the 'women' together and tortured them, 'forced' them to admit that they colluded with Di Ren to murder Shen Zangfeng, and removed Shen Tingshu's responsibility as a steward...... That's it, what else do you want us to do for you? Do you want to open an ancestral hall in addition to the name of Shen Chufu's 'woman'?
But for the sake of Shen Xuan's face, he couldn't help but perfunctory her, so he said: "Shen Chu and the Zhou family are too confused!" It's a pity that we are getting older, and we don't go out of the 'door' when we are idle, and we don't hear much about what is going on outside. I didn't know that Feng'er was slighted to such an extent! It's shocking! It's a shame that you came in time, otherwise there will be a big incident! ”
Wei Changying cried again when she heard this, and said, "Isn't it? Uncle and uncle must have heard the news that the eldest son of the concubine, who is now raised under his mother's knees, is only a few months old, and he is not yet a year old! Jiao'er is still young, and the concubine is a 'female' generation, how can she bear the heavy responsibility of raising him to be a 'becoming' person alone? If the husband has a good one, how will the concubine live with Guang'er? The uncle and aunt of the clan are intent on 'forced' the concubine to die, the mother and son! ”
"Good boy, hurry up and don't say that." Seeing that her words were getting more and more serious, Shen Xunfu's 'wife' hurriedly stopped her, and Huo said, "Isn't Feng'er a good person now?" The blessings of your family of three are yet to come! ”
"Your uncle is right." Shen Xun and his old wife glanced at each other: Shen Chufu's 'woman' committed such a fool this time, although it is not as serious as Wei Changying said - this husband and 'woman' are not stupid, Shen Zangfeng returned to Xiliang's ancestral house from the front line to recuperate from his injuries, it is because this is the best place in the entire Xiliang, this master who has decided to be in charge of Mingpei Hall in the future, how dare Shen Chufu's 'woman' snub him?!
Therefore, although in order to 'insert' soft 'jade', a few 'women' in Shen Zangfeng's courtyard were transferred, but in fact, they were not transferred, but those people were not allowed to stay in front of Shen Zangfeng easily, but sent them to avoid the side, so as not to affect the soft 'jade' to climb the 'bed'.
And on the day Wei Changying arrived, he saw that the soft 'jade' was brewing tea outside, and he didn't serve Shen Zangfeng inside, which was also for a reason: Shen Youjia wanted to tell Shen Zangfeng about the military situation, and even told Wei Changying what he was doing in Shen Zangfeng's inner room, as for what military information, it was not a word, not to mention that soft 'jade' was a little messenger 'woman'?
Of course, when discussing the military situation, we must send the soft 'jade' away, and she is not allowed to enter!
Soft 'jade' was guided and taught by the Zhou family, and decided to serve Shen Zangfeng for a good life, and seek a name, if she can give birth to a son and a half 'daughter' in the future, she can be regarded as relying on - she was sent out to be very bored, and knew that Shen Zangfeng's wife would arrive that day, so it was easy to get a chance to fly on the branch, but it didn't succeed yet, the young lady was coming, how could the soft 'jade' not hesitate?
was so hesitant, and there was nothing to do, so he made a pot of tea there to pass the time.
Everyone knows that this makes the 'woman' restless mind, why doesn't she want to wait for Shen Zangfeng by the couch? It's clear that I don't have this opportunity! Otherwise, I'm afraid she would like to stick to Shen Zangfeng's side every day, and she would be satisfied if she could stick into Hua Luo's tent!
The real experience of such a tacit understanding can't stand the fact that when Wei Changying came, he saw that the nephrite 'jade' was serving alone, and he was not in the inner room!
She is Shen Zangfeng's wife, and it is natural for her to feel sorry for her husband. A sentence that Shen Zangfeng was so seriously injured that he had to be served by an unreliable 'woman', and he was soft 'jade' with a cowardly appearance, I am afraid that it will be difficult to help Shen Zangfeng turn over, how to serve her husband well? And when she arrived, the soft 'jade' was not in front of Shen Zangfeng's couch, which was obviously a dereliction of duty! Shen Chufu's 'woman' can't get rid of the responsibility of neglecting Shen Zangfeng!
The most terrible thing is that before Wei Changying arrived, in addition to Shen Zangfeng, it was Shen Chufu's turn to be Shen Chufu's 'woman' here. In this case, Wei Changying insisted that Shen Chufu's 'wife' was bullying her husband who was seriously injured and in a coma, and couldn't see things, and even suspected that Shen Chufu's 'wife' wanted to kill Shen Zangfeng without moving...... Shen Chufu's 'woman' can't find someone to share the responsibility or take a detour!
Although Shen Youjia is the captain of Xiliang, he doesn't live in Mingpeitang! This lieutenant has a very low rank, and he has to be called Shen Chufu's 'wife' uncle and uncle. Once he speaks in the clan, he is a junior, and he doesn't touch anything in Ming Peitang at all, what responsibility can he bear?
Everyone knows that Wei Changying said that Shen Chufu's 'woman' colluded with Di Ren is just an excuse, but it is not so easy to refute her.
But......
What to do to refute her? Shen Xun and the Huo family have been married for many years, and they know each other well, one looks at each other, and they have their own plans, Shen Xun sank his face and said: "In the early years, I also saw that Shen Chufu's 'women' were quite honest and careful in their work, so they were sent to guard the ancestral hall. I didn't expect this husband and wife to be so vicious and shameless! Feng'er is serving the country, and it is also adding glory to my Shen family, so he was seriously injured! As an uncle and aunt of the same clan, I should have arranged manpower and served him wholeheartedly, so that Feng'er's nephew could recover as soon as possible, but these two people were so lazy that they almost missed Feng'er! It's really damning! ”
After scolding like this, expressing his support for Wei Changying's attitude, Shen Xun stroked his long beard, groaned for a while, and said to Wei Changying in a consultative tone: "Shen Chufu's 'woman' is not good, but ...... In the old man's opinion, these two people lack character, but it is not enough to collude with Di people. After all, it's my Shen family's blood and blood, and I have a deep grudge against the Di people, what do my nephews and granddaughters think? ”
Wei Changying immediately expressed his position and said, "What my uncle said is very true! In fact, the concubine was also angry at the time, and it was really incomprehensible that the uncle and aunt of the clan were so harsh on the husband! Only then did he suspect that Di Ren had arrived, and now that the uncle said that the concubine also felt that the uncle and aunt of the clan were not good, and it should not be so. ”
The person guarding the ancestral hall was actually the enemy's 'traitor', and when it was passed out, he really laughed to death.
Besides, there are 'traitors' among the people of Xiliang Wei, and even the Shen family who has been stationed here for generations has been 'traitor', not to mention the loss of the reputation of the Shen family, let's just say that the imperial capital is there, and I don't know how the saint is going to toss it!
Wei Changying "suspected" Shen Chufu's 'wife' before, firstly, because Shen Chu was angry and deliberately found an excuse to make them suffer a little, and secondly, he also gave these elders to "teach" himself.
Now that Shen Xun has been in favor of severely punishing Shen Chufu's 'wife', Wei Changying is of course kind to his suggestion.
In this way, all the elders in Xiliang City have been visited, and under the mediation of Wei Changying, except for a very small number of people who find excuses to divert the topic and are unwilling to express their positions, most of them are in favor of punishing Shen Chufu's 'woman'.
Because the so-called crime of colluding with Di Ren was removed, the reason why Shen Chufu's 'wife' was punished was that she was harsh on her meritorious nephew, and she was ignorant and incompetent, unable to manage Ming Peitang well, and slackened off her ancestral position. The former is not virtuous, the latter is not filial, and this crime is actually not light.
…… Ming Peitang and they definitely can't manage it, but they just harsh Shen Zangfeng, and Wei Changying is not relenting, and it is impossible to send them home as simply.
After the elders discussed, the punishment set for them was 50 Shen Chu's staff and 50 Zhou's fence, and each of them dragged people outside the ancestral hall and carried out the punishment in front of the two elders. Then he fined a part of the family property and confiscated it - the most terrible one was the last one, and sent them to settle in Donghe Town, and they were not allowed to be in Xiliang City anymore.
