Mrs. Wei's father, Xiucai, was born and surnamed Chen. The Chen family is also a faceless family in the local county, and when the sisters say they are married, their vision is higher than that of others. Mrs. Wei married a talented person, and her sister chose a handsome talent.

Mrs. Wei said that her sister was short-sighted, but her sister said that she was still lifting people after a few years of taking the exam, and she might stop here for the rest of her life, and it is unknown whether she will be able to win the champion in the future.

Because of this, the sisters had a quarrel in their hearts and secretly competed.

However, Xiucai is always a Xiucai, but he has gone one step further, and he has been admitted to the Gongshi, Mrs. Wei won this contest, and proudly pointed fingers at her sister's family affairs, and her sister accused Mrs. Wei of meddling in her affairs, and cursed her to be happy and sad.

Mrs. Wei scoffed, who knew that it didn't take long for her husband to fall ill and die within half a year.

At that time, Chen's father and Chen's mother had died, and Mrs. Wei took her three sons, and the orphans and widows had no one to rely on, so they could only go to her sister with a cheeky face.

The mother and the four senders were ridiculed under the fence.

Fortunately, Wei Shicheng was angry.

The children's examination of Xiucai, once a year, the examination of Xiucai once every three years, the spring of the next year, the examination of tributes, a few days after the release of the list is the spring.

Wei Shicheng was sixteen years old in Xiucai, twenty years old in the middle of the champion, was caught by the queen mother's list and set the lord of Yuanheng as his wife, and then Mrs. Wei was taken to the capital, and then gave her sister's family a sum of money to pay off the debt, and never came back again.

More than ten years have passed, things are wrong, and the knots of the year have gradually dissolved, and when my sister was dying, I wanted to see my sister, so I asked my daughter Jia Mengjun to write a letter to Mrs. Wei.

Where can Mrs. Wei withstand the long-distance bumps, so she asked Mother Zheng beside her to go back to her hometown for her.

Zheng's mother soon sent back the news, saying that her sister wanted to entrust her only daughter, Jia Mengjun, to Mrs. Wei.

Old Madam Wei had long expected that her sister would ask her for something, and for the sake of the grace of taking her in back then, she responded to the matter.

Zheng's mother helped Jia Mengjun take care of the aftermath and took her back to the capital.

Jia Mengjun grew up with the three brothers of the Wei family, and knew how powerful his eldest cousin was, and he also knew that he took his aunt to soar, but he didn't know that they had reached such a point.

How did she know that this mansion was the mansion that the Queen Mother gave to the lord of Yuanheng, and it was only the family business that Wei Shicheng earned herself, and she was so shocked that she couldn't even speak, in her imagination, the palace was afraid that it would be like this.

Seeing her shocked look, Mother Zheng was also honored, so she introduced her to the Wei family.

Jia Mengjun listened carefully, and when she heard that her second cousin had died, her heart became active.

The three brothers of the Wei family, Wei Shiyuan, who belongs to the second line, has the best appearance and is also amorous.

Jia Mengjun looks like a talented father, and she is also more beautiful than a flower, and many people have called them a pair of golden boys and girls since she was a child.

came and went, and there was a little bit of meaning between the two.

It's just that Mrs. Wei sent people under the fence, holding her breath in her heart, bent on cultivating her son into a talent, where would her son put his mind on the love of his children. And it didn't take long for Wei Shicheng to pass the examination, and after he went to the capital to settle down first, Mrs. Wei left the Jia family with Wei Shiyuan and Wei Shiqian, and came to the capital to meet her eldest son.

Since then, Jia Mengjun has never seen Wei Shiyuan again.

In the next year, when she was fifteen years old, her mother set a family affair for her, and the other party was also a handsome young man, Jia Mengjun gradually forgot about Wei Shiyuan, and only waited for the other party to marry as soon as the filial piety period expired two years later. Who knew that there were unforeseen circumstances in the sky, when Jia Mengjun was seventeen years old, seeing that the wedding date was approaching, her fiancé fell from a horse drunk and broke his neck.

Jia Mengjun has become a widow.

It's not that she doesn't have to keep the festival and not get married, but she has always been called a hard husband, and no one dares to marry when she is idle, and she can't look down on those who want to marry.

Jia Mengjun thinks very highly of herself, where is she willing to give in to herself easily, so she has been stumbling like this for three years. After the age of twenty, she is already a veritable old girl, and she has not found a suitable person. In the future, it will be even higher than low, unless it is to be a concubine.

But if you want to be a concubine, three years will be in vain, besides, too

I couldn't find a better choice than when I was seventeen years old, and the choice was a loss.

is so hesitant, Jia Mengjun is twenty-nine years old this year.

In fact, it's not really impossible to get married at this age, and it's also appropriate to fill the house for someone's steproom, but as soon as people heard that she was a widow, they dispelled the idea.

At this time, when she heard that Wei Shiyuan had died of her original partner, she immediately moved her mind, but she didn't know if Wei Shiyuan could still remember the old love, and whether she would mind if she was a widow.

All the way into Songhe Hall, Jia Mengjun knelt down with a gloomy expression when she saw Old Madam Wei, and called out in a choked voice, "Auntie......

Old Madam Wei sat on the Luohan couch and said unhurriedly, "Raise your head and let me see."

Jia Mengjun cautiously raised her head, and saw the old lady Wei in the seat, although she could vaguely recognize the appearance of the year, but both the dress and temperament were no longer the same as when she lived in the Jia family.

Jia Mengjun took turns to pretend to be feng shui, but now it is her turn to send someone under the fence, and I don't know if my aunt will be like her mother back then, sneering all day long, pointing at Sang and scolding Huai.

She looked up for a moment, then lowered her head again, more and more cautious.

Old Madam Wei stared at Jia Mengjun for a moment and said, "The journey is tiring, go to freshen up and rest first, and it's not too late to say anything later."

Jia Mengjun had already finished the draft, but when she heard the words, she had to hold back the brewing emotions again, and obediently responded "yes".

took her out to be resettled, and Zheng's mother stepped forward to tell her about the events during this time.

Old Madam Wei was noncommittal, and said lightly, "Got it." Look at the book

Mother Zheng asked again, "How does the old lady plan to place this person?"

Old Madam Wei groaned.

In fact, she knew that Jia Mengjun was a widow, and she had a thought.

The husband died, the woman is determined to observe the festival, such as the neighbors can prove that the woman has no ambiguous feelings with others, the local county officials want to play a fold, ask the emperor to commend the woman, give a holy decree to praise, after that, the local will give the woman the archway, which is the so-called "chastity archway".

Although Jia Mengjun is not surnamed Wei, she is her niece, and if she can set up a chastity archway, she can also add glory to her long face.

However, Zheng's mother's answer disappointed Mrs. Wei.

"There are many rights and wrongs in front of the widow's door, and my cousin and grandmother are widows, and her body is not broken, although no one dares to marry, but there are many people who covet her, and besides, my cousin and grandmother are young and beautiful, and they also have the intention of remarrying, and have interacted with several men of the right age, but in the end, no one dares to marry her back, so they give up."

Old Madam Wei frowned deeply, "Then let her stay in the mansion first, and if there is a suitable place to go, then let's talk."

Mother Zheng knew that she was unhappy, so she quietly retreated and asked the little girl to come over to serve Mrs. Wei for a nap.

She turned around and didn't see the peony, and after asking, she realized that something was wrong in the house.

"What?! Aunt Xue and the second master in the third master's house were arrested?"

"Ouch! Mother Zheng, hurry up and be quiet, if you let the old lady know that we are talking in private, it will be terrible!"

Qiu Zhi's little face turned white with fright.

In the past few days, Nong Peony has been locked up, and she has been serving by the old lady's side.

The old lady's mood was obviously not very good, how dare she touch the mold.

Mother Zheng asked in a low voice, "I'm afraid that the second and third masters are not angry?"

Qiu Ci said: "The third master's favorite is Aunt Xue's mother and daughter, but now that the fifth girl is dead, and Aunt Xue has also been sent to the nunnery, how can the third master not blame the second master at all, he will be afraid for a while and will not be able to turn around." On the third master's side, I don't know if he was really busy or deliberately avoided, so he stayed in the study in the front yard when he returned home, and didn't come to the backyard at all.

Zheng's mother was stunned, and she didn't say anything for a long time.

At this time, the people who were also speechless were also Aunt Song Qian, who was in the second room and was bent on straightening up.

She rubbed the handkerchief in her hand vigorously, pulling all the rhododendrons on it

of the deformed.

Shu'er Xiu'er knelt in front of her, trembling and afraid to speak.

Ting Lan asked again, "What did the second master say? What do you mean you don't have to bother to serve?"

Shu'er said: "The second master said that he has been busy with official business recently, and he has no time to come to the backyard, so that my aunt doesn't have to worry about it, and when I am busy with this time, I will come to my aunt to talk to her."

Aunt Song's face was gloomy, "He really didn't touch you?"

Shu'er shook her head, "No, he said that the two of us can serve my aunt with peace of mind, and there are many people there to serve her."

That's what it means to not want them.

Song Qian took a deep breath and exhaled again, "A lot of people are waiting? Scold...... Well, he does have a lot of people to serve!"

Shu'er Xiu'er didn't understand what she meant, and looked at Tinglan, who waved her hand, "You guys go down first."

The two girls hurriedly withdrew and closed the door.

Ting Lan said, "Maybe the second master is really busy with business, we can't say if we misunderstand."

"Impossible!"

Song Qian's face turned dark, "Although I haven't been in the mansion for a long time, I know a little bit about him, even if he is busy with business, he is by no means so busy."

She raised her eyes to look at Tinglan: "Aunt Xue's whereabouts haven't been found yet?"

Tinglan shook her head, "I didn't find Aunt Xue, but the second master will definitely go to the old lady today, saying that the old lady's niece is here, and she always has to gradually become a family member."

"The old lady's niece?"

"Yes, I heard that she was widowed, her father and mother had passed away, and Zheng's mother helped with the funeral, so she took her back to the capital, and I don't know how to settle it now."

Song Qian was puzzled, "I've never heard that there is anyone else in the old lady's family, it seems that they don't have much contact, why did their family pass away and come here?"

Tinglan said: "No one asks about the poor in the downtown area, but the rich have distant relatives in the mountains, and the Wei family is becoming more and more prominent now, and it is not uncommon for relatives to come to join them."

"How old is this cousin?"
