Chapter Errors/Click here to report

Wen Xian sat on the edge of the bed, stretched her neck and looked out of the cabin door, uncertain, and after a while, she finally saw the familiar figure returning, and she immediately showed a look of anticipation: "How is it?" ”

Shiqin smiled embarrassedly, bowed his head and said, "Uncle said that he wanted to stay with his wife to have dinner, but he came." You can read the nest ,., you can watch it with your mobile phone. ”

Wen Xian couldn't hide the disappointment on her face, she lay on the bed heavily, her eyes were red, and she was about to shed tears: "How can he do this to me?" I just heard the bad news that day, my heart was flustered, and I didn't care about my mother-in-law for a while, how did I know that my mother-in-law would faint at that time? Since my father-in-law resigned, my mother-in-law either cried and talked all day long, or went back to her parents' house, I had to take over the housework, and I didn't let Aunt Bai reach out to take over the power, isn't it all for him? Even if I don't have credit, I have hard work, why does he blindly say that I love power and don't respect my mother-in-law? How could I be like that? ”

Shiqin hurriedly said: "Grandma's hard work, uncle will understand one day, now he just listened to the slander of those foxes, so he will misunderstand grandma." ”

"Don't talk about it." Wen Xian choked, "I always thought that he had an adulterous affair with Miaolu, but he married Miaolu to someone else and stayed in the capital, I think it may really be a misunderstanding of him, you say this again, let him hear it, and you want to ......quarrel with me again."

Shiqin was a little embarrassed, she really thought that Liu Dongning would take Miaolu into the house, but she didn't expect him to let Miaolu marry her friend's long-term follower, what she said became a joke, but at this moment, how could she back down? If it arouses Wen Xian's doubts, she may no longer be favored. So she hurriedly said: "The slave knows that she misunderstood Miaolu in the past, who told her to always dangle in front of the uncle?" Relying on the long hours of waiting for the uncle, it is no wonder that others think this way if they are disrespectful to their grandmother. But now it's different, grandma, now in front of the uncle, it is Abi who is your companion, but she went with selfish intentions, have you forgotten what the old lady said? ”

Shiqin didn't say anything about Youke, as soon as she said this, Wen Xian suddenly felt sad. She was snubbed by her husband and unhappy with her mother-in-law, this fact was finally known to her grandmother before leaving Beijing, and her grandmother persuaded her that since she couldn't keep a man's heart, she simply let the people around her invite pets No matter what, she also wanted to keep her status. Grandmother said, this time the Liu family returned to their hometown, and the Gu family still had to stay in the capital as officials, and the original relationship between respect and inferiority was reversed, and the Liu family would not snub her, so that she would have more eyes, be generous, drink less vinegar, take more care of her mother-in-law and aunt, and strive to give birth to an heir as soon as possible, and then their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law's status in the Liu family will be unshakable

She understands the reason, but that Ah Bi is a ghost, how can grandmother let that kind of person seduce Dongning?

Wen Xian's tears rippled, and Shiqin hurriedly handed over the handkerchief and said good words, and finally calmed her down, and suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure flashing outside, looking at what seemed to be a girl, and immediately shouted: "Who is outside?" Sneaky, don't you roll in? ”

Wen Xian was startled, and hurriedly turned her back to wipe the tears on her face, so as not to let her subordinates see it and gossip.

It was none other than Abi who came in, saluting respectfully. When Wen Xian and Shi Qin saw that it was her, they were both vigilant, and the former asked, "What are you doing outside?" ”

Abi smiled and said, "The slave maid went to the kitchen to get food for the wife and uncle." The waiter scolded at the head: "Nonsense, there is no one waiting for the wife and uncle?" Want you to get food? You obviously deliberately rushed to the knot, and you even forgot who your own master was."

As soon as Abi heard this, she was annoyed, and said with a straight face: "I don't understand what my sister says, what my uncle commands, can I still say that a girl can't do it?" The big * grandmother didn't say that she wouldn't let me wait for my wife and uncle, why did my sister stop me in a hurry? ”

Wen Xian bit her lip and glared at her angrily. How could this girl be so rude to herself?

Shiqin helped her scold: "You are grandma's girl, so naturally you are the first to be sent by grandma." Grandma hasn't eaten yet, it's better for you to come to the uncle and wait in front of you, I'm afraid that the food is fake, and it's true to seduce you, right? The lewd and black-hearted little prostitute didn't bother to see what she looked like, so she stammered? ”

Ah Bi's face darkened, and she snorted the waiter: "Who is the lewd and black-hearted little prostitute, you know in your own heart, don't arrange people indiscriminately" and said to Wen Xian without being salty: "Big * milk, don't listen to this little hoof's nonsense, she has more than nine or nine little people in her heart, relying on your trust to sow discord in secret, if it weren't for her bad idea, can the uncle be angry with you?" You have to know who the good guy is, old lady, have you forgotten? Since you left Beijing, you only care about nesting in your own room, and you don't go to your wife to please you, how can your uncle be happy when he sees it? It's already time to eat, so you'd better hurry over and wait, or even if you're your wife's niece, she'll be annoyed with you."

Wen Xian was angry for a while, she was so seasick that she couldn't go out, and she didn't mean to be lazy, and as soon as she appeared in front of her mother-in-law, the other party didn't have a good face, did she still have to rush to make herself suffer? Her mother-in-law is her own aunt, so if she doesn't help her speak, forget it, and abuse her with her husband, how can she be willing?

Thinking of this, she said coldly: "I have my own sense of proportion, and I don't need you to teach me." You also give me a clear understanding of my duty, what should not be Xiao think, Hugh wants to go Xiao Xiang For the sake of your grandmother, I will not pursue your rudeness, go out and kneel at the door for me for an hour, and you are not allowed to get up until the time is reached."

Abi looked at her dumbfounded, thinking that this aunt was really stupid day by day, and she had received an envoy on her body, but she wanted to kneel at the door by herself?

With a sneer, Abi raised his eyebrows: "The slave obeys." He turned around and knelt down, but gave a look to the little girl who was looking around the corner of the corridor, and the little girl ran away as fast as she could. Abi glanced triumphantly at the cabin. Don't blame her for not listening to her little master, she is the dowry girl of the Gu family, and she shoulders the heavy responsibility entrusted by the old lady of the Gu family, so she can't watch the little master mess around, right?

Wen Xian was in the cabin, not knowing that she was being calculated by the dowry girl, and continued to sobbed lowly, sad that she had not received the respect and understanding of her mother-in-law and husband. Shiqin calmed her for a while, and saw that she was still depressed, so she had to persuade: "Grandma, according to the idea of the slave maid, these things are not in a hurry, it is still the old saying, after a long time, the uncle will know the benefits of grandma." The most important thing at the moment is to stabilize your position in the Liu family."

Wen Xian choked up and said: "My husband treats me like this, my mother-in-law doesn't have a good face, and everyone in my family knows that I am not favored, where do I have any status?" Even if there is, it's just a false name, what use can it be? ”

Shiqin hurriedly said, "How can grandma say that? Now that the eldest lord is a high-ranking official in Beijing, it is impossible for the Liu family not to give you face, and when you return to Heng'an, worship the ancestral hall, and go to the family tree, if you win over the Liu family's clansmen, no one will be able to shake your status Even if the uncle is confused for a while, he can't do anything to you. Have you forgotten? At that time, Mrs. Rong was not favored by the old lady, but because of her prestige in the clan, the status of the main room was as stable as Mount Tai, and later the old lady knew her benefits, how good it was to her, if it wasn't for her lack of luck, where would there be anything to the lord today? In contrast, although Mrs. Yao was favored, gave birth to a son, and her mother's family still had power, but because she was not valued in the clan, she could only be trampled on for the rest of her life, and finally fell out of favor If it weren't for the master's struggle, where would there be today's good situation? Have you seen what happened to them and still don't know what to do? ”

Wen Xian gradually stopped crying, thoughtful, but she realized that there was already the sound of Dongning's heavy footsteps outside the cabin.

Not to mention what quarrel happened between Liu Dongning and Wen Xian on the way back to their hometown, the news that their family was coming back reached Heng'an, and the Liu clan was in a commotion, but Liu Dongxing, who was the first to bring the news, continued to deal with his affairs calmly, as if he hadn't heard the rumors outside.

Wen Yi also discussed with Liu Dongxing, and acted every day, still as calmly as before, but ordered someone to speed up the cleaning and repair work of the small courtyard, just in case. When asked, they said that they were worried that the weather would continue to be cold, which would not be conducive to the renovation work, so they had to finish the work before the snow fell.

Seeing that their husband and wife were so calm, the people of the Liu clan couldn't bear it anymore, and Mrs. Liu Qi took the lead in coming to the door and asked Liu Dongxing: "Brother Xing, you said earlier that your second uncle resigned and was going back to his hometown, is it true?" ”

Liu Dongxing listened to it funny: "Seventh grandfather, what am I okay to coax you to do?" Naturally, it's true. Have you not heard the faith? They are almost in Taicheng, counting the days, and they will be there in six or seven days. The housekeepers have already started to clean up the house, haven't you heard? ”

Mrs. Liu Qi laughed dryly, hesitated for a moment, and asked again: "Since your second uncle is coming back, no matter how you say it, he is also the head of the clan, you see...... You said you were going to build a grave...... Is it for a while? Seeing Liu Dongxing's eyes widen and look over, he hurriedly defended: "I don't mean anything else, your second uncle wants to come back, and if you resign from the government, even if you don't worship your ancestors, you have to talk to your ancestors." And he hasn't been back for so many years, so he always has to sweep the tomb, right? In this case, it is better to do it together, and it will save more trouble. ”

Liu Dongxing smiled: "Seventh Grandpa, don't worry, I won't do anything out of the ordinary." ”

Old Master Liu Qi sneered: "Seventh Grandpa really doesn't mean that......"

"I understand." Liu Dongxing was a little excited, "Are you worried that what I have done will make the second uncle angry when he comes back and teach me a lesson, so you kindly reminded me." Don't worry, I won't do anything disrespectful, and when the second uncle comes back, he won't teach me a lesson. ”

Master Liu Qi hesitated a little: "But...... Forget about sweeping the tomb, what about changing the inscription...... How could he not be angry? ”

Liu Dongxing sneered: "The Holy Lord personally decreed to correct my grandmother's name, I am a grandson, and it is natural to change the untruths on the tombstone, what is there to be angry about?" If he's really annoyed, just call him to talk to me. I'm not going to slip away until he comes back."

Liu Dongxing is already an official, and he has been trained on the battlefield, he is decisive in killing, and the official is awe-inspiring, and he is no longer comparable to the young and young young man in the past, Liu Qi was intimidated by his expression, and he never dared to come out with a "but", and went back obediently.

Liu Dongxing's face was very ugly. He suddenly found that even if he became an official, and Liu Fu lost his official, the clansmen still respected the latter in their hearts, even if it was a few clan elders who had always been at odds with their second uncle Liu Fu, they only said verbally that they wanted to teach Liu Fu a lesson, and if they really wanted to do something to offend Liu Fu, they couldn't help but hesitate.

They did defend themselves in the past, they didn't let the second aunt beat and scold themselves, or deduct too much money, food and clothing, and insisted on not letting the second uncle and second aunt modify the family tree and erase their existence, he said that he was going to study in Cannes, and the second aunt didn't let go, and it was these old people who helped to speak, and the second aunt was relieved. But in addition, he is still the helpless orphan, if it weren't for his hard work with a heart and strength, and with the help of his close friend Luo Mingmin, where would he have today's brilliance?

Come to think of it, his wife Wen Yi once said something similar, and she also persuaded herself not to pay too much attention to it. In fact, he hadn't really thought about this kind of thing before, and it wasn't until this time that he really cared. That's it, just like Wen Yi said, these old people also have their own children, grandchildren, wives and children, and their own family business, and it is human nature that they dare not offend the second uncle too much. For the sake of their love for him in the past, why should he care?

Two days later, Liu Dongxing took Wen Yi out of the city to go to the grave for the ancestors, and the couple personally sorted out the weeds and other things around the tomb, and then replaced the new tombstone carved in advance. Not only has the tombstone of the old lady of the Liu family added a new edict and the official position of the eastward journey, but the identity of Mrs. Rong's wife has also been re-marked with the identity of the wife, and the title given by the emperor and the edict due to Liu Dongxing's promotion are clearly engraved word by word. The tombstones of Liu Dongxing's parents were also added with a fate.

Mrs. Yao's tombstone was also re-engraved. Liu Dongxing deliberately asked people to move the position of her tombstone according to the specifications of filling the house, so that she was under Mrs. Rong's wife, but her grave was never touched.

Wen Yi was a little surprised when she saw the newly carved tombstone of Liu Dongxing's order for the first time, in the past, Liu Dongxing had always called the Yao family a concubine, but she didn't expect to admit her step-family identity. She looked at Liu Dongxing with doubts in her eyes.

Liu Dongxing noticed it, didn't say anything, just smiled at her, then squatted down, inserted three incense sticks in front of the tomb of Mrs. Rong's wife, and said softly: "Grandmother, your old man has always been a person who does not compete with others, because of his soft temperament, he has suffered so much. I remember when I was a child, my father was upset for you, but you said that it doesn't matter whether you fight or not, the most important thing is to be worthy of your own heart. In this case, today the grandson will act according to his heart, end this long-standing struggle, and put aside all the grievances and hatreds of the ancestors, you ...... You can't blame your grandson, right? ”

Naturally, the tombstone would not answer him, but suddenly a gust of wind blew from nowhere, which made the paper money pressed on the tombstone rattle, and the incense in front of the tomb flashed and emitted a faint fire. Liu Dongxing stared at the incense and didn't speak for a long time. Wen Yi stepped forward and asked him with some worry, "What's wrong with you?" Just in a daze. ”

Liu Dongxing turned around and smiled: "It's nothing, grandmother seems to be very happy." Come, lady, let's pour wine for our grandfather, grandmother, father, and mother, and tell us about the good things we have encountered this year. As he spoke, the gloomy aura on his brow dissipated without a trace.
