Chapter 220: Tearing up the family letter
Deng Ning cried. Desperately stepped forward to grab the second son of Deng. Deng Ergongzi flicked his sleeves. Leng Ran said: "Now you know that you are crying." When we were in prison. Have you ever thought about crying for us? Big brother for you. Do you know how many sins you have suffered? I'll tell you. Big brother and dad don't say forgive you. I will never recognize you as a sister in my life. ”
Deng Ning heard this. The look was shocked. Slowly let go of Deng Ergongzi. She thought she was a family. Even if you are angry. It's just a few words of scolding. didn't expect the second brother to say such heartless words.
Deng Ning cried: "Okay." You don't recognize me. That's it. I'm going to go to my dad and big brother. They love me. You won't bother with me. ”
Deng Ergongzi said lightly: "You don't have to look for it." Why bother with yourself. I'm kind of polite to you. Daddy and big brother. At the moment of returning home, there is a word first. I will never recognize you again. You are determined to go back and be the daughter-in-law of your Liu family. Don't be embarrassed here. ”
Let's talk about it. said angrily to the two little guys on the side: "What are you still doing in a daze." Pull it out. ”
The little guys originally didn't dare to touch Deng Ning. Because he is used to seeing Deng Ning's sassy and rude. It's just that now I see that the second son of Deng is resolute. Can't be disobeyed. had to step forward and pull Deng Ning.
Deng Ning brushed away. Glowered. "You dare to touch me. I don't care about you. "Say it. She looked at Deng Ergongzi sadly again. "Second brother. You're so ruthless. ”
"It's you who put your desperation first." He didn't even look at Deng Ning. He only said to the two little guys, "Get it out quickly." so as not to disturb the old man. "Say it. Coldly brushed his sleeves away.
Deng Ning sat on the ground sadly and desperately. He burst into tears.
The butler shook his head. stepped forward and said, "Miss." I knew why I had to do it in the first place. You'd better go back. The old lady hates you to death. I'm afraid I won't agree to you going home. "Say it. Sigh and leave.
Deng Ning cried to death. It was very bleak to look at. Two close men stepped forward to pull her. He whispered, "Miss." What to do now. ”
What to do. Deng Ning stopped crying. Look at the familiar home. It's not her home anymore. What can I do.
In the past, she only cried once. Daddy and brother will be very distressed. What does she want. all managed to make a show for her. Now she was crying so hard that she was hoarse. But no one came to look at her. She knows. This home. I really don't want her anymore.
There was a great panic in my heart. She looked at the two maids in a hesitant manner. I didn't have an idea at the moment.
The maid said, "It's not as good as that." Let's go back to Liu's house. ”
Deng Ning sobbed. "I came out of a quarrel with that dead ghost." Wouldn't he be looked down upon when he went back like this? ”
"But. We have nowhere to go right now. The maid looked around. The huge Deng Mansion. Empty. Perhaps everyone knew they were back. Because the old man is angry. So except for the two little guys just now. No one dared to come out.
Deng Ning gritted her teeth. "No." I still have somewhere to go. Let's go to the Prime Minister's Mansion. Find a godfather. ”
Deng Ning came to the Prime Minister's Mansion. Wang Zhenxi is not in the house. Wang Xiangjun heard that Deng Ning was coming. Come out in person to greet you. Deng Ning cried aggrievedly when she saw Wang Xiangjun. told her family's affection for her. He also begged Wang Xiangjun to take her in.
Wang Xiangjun already thought she was her sister. Although not biological. So long. There is still a friendship. Immediately, he sighed and said, "Silly sister." How wrong you are. Let's stay for now. I'll order someone to go to Liu's Mansion in two days and ask my brother-in-law to pick you up. ”
Deng Ning has great respect for Wang Xiangjun. Now I heard her say the same. I had to respond temporarily. Pear Blossom said with rain: "It's better for my sister to treat me." Even my family doesn't want me anymore. My sister is willing to take me in. My sister is so grateful. ”
Wang Xiangjun shook his head. "You. It's too much. No wonder Uncle Deng. They were also angry for a while. Wait until they're gone. You go back and ask them for forgiveness. After all, it's flesh and blood. They won't disown you. ”
Deng Ning nodded weakly. "My sister knows."
The news of Deng Ning's negative departure soon spread in Liu's mansion. Everyone didn't say anything. This mess is on. Deng Ning was not there. It's also a little less annoying.
The old man intends to reconcile with his father-in-law's house. So he asked the concubine to repair a book and go home. Eucalyptus is now also in the drought-stricken area. The Wen family was originally a large local family. Famous family. Mrs. Wen is now more than a hundred years old. It can be called longevity. Be kind to others. When the drought comes. He has already donated silver to dig wells and dredge rivers for the local area. It's just that the project is huge. Bucket. Consequences of drought. Gradually, it became serious.
This year's golden autumn. There is no harvest of pellets. After the onset of winter. There was no food left in the people's homes. And the rice shop also took the opportunity to raise prices. The people were miserable. Law and order gradually became chaotic.
this day. The prefect invited several well-known squires from Eucalyptus to come to the yamen to discuss the disaster. The prefect is actually helpless. This so-called meeting. It's just to let the merchants give some money from each family. It's just that. those who are willing to give money. It's been out for a long time. Reluctant to come out. Naturally, it is even more tightened. Not a single point.
They deliberated for a long time. Nothing came of it.
After that, the prefect looked at Old Man Wen. Said: "Gong Wen." I heard that the concubine Niangniang has the grace to raise the regent and the prince. Can you ask Gong Wen to repair a letter to the capital? Please ask the concubine to say a few words on behalf of the people of Eucalyptus. Let the imperial court allocate funds. to solve the urgent need. ”
Old Lady Wen said embarrassedly: "My lord." The old man refused to help. It's just that you, as an official of the imperial court, should also know. The harem does not interfere in politics. This is a rule laid down by our ancestors. ”
The prefect nodded. Stretched out his hand and smoothed his gray beard. Said: "Yes." As a concubine. There are also difficulties for concubines. But. The concubine is gentle and virtuous. Be considerate of the people. He was also carefully taught by Gong Wen since he was a child. Gentle and humble......"
The prefect's words were not finished. One of them ate and sneered. Said contemptuously: "Yes." He was carefully taught. It's just that he taught it. Not all of them are good. Have you forgotten about Wen Xuanxiu's elopement with the poor coolie? ”
The one who spoke was an old man who was also over 100 years old. He was the uncle of the Empress Dowager. It's called Zhou Murocai. It is also a local nobleman. It's just that he has been at odds with Old Man Wen since he was a child. The two families are feuding. Basically not in each other's relationship. It's just that every time I get the chance. will use this matter to hit Old Lady Wen. And Mrs. Wen regarded this matter as a shame. Whoever mentions it will turn his face.
Old Man Wen immediately stretched his face. It's just that it's true. He couldn't refute it. I had to keep my stomach in my heart. Turn your back to your face and don't speak.
The prefect hurriedly opened the subject. Discuss disaster relief with a few other people.
Mrs. Wen went home that night. I didn't even eat. I went back to my room in a huff.
No one in the family knew what was going on. The grandson of Old Lady Wen. That is, the concubine's brother in order to make his grandfather happy. So he took the concubine's letter and read it to the old lady. Who knows that the old lady hasn't listened to the following. I only heard the concubine talk about her aunt. In anger, he tore up the letter to his family. Kicked the grandson out.
