Ma did not know the relationship between the Sun family and the Jin family's homicide, but he was still very clear about the hostile relationship between the Zhou family and the Sun family. Hearing that Zhou Shuyi, the aunt of the Zhou family's third room, might collude with the Sun family, she hurriedly asked her brother what was going on.

Uncle Ma said: "I also heard about it from other places, and when I saw that no one knew about it in Chang'an, I reminded your eldest sister in private." Who knew that she went to tell Brother-in-law Zhou, Brother-in-law Zhou didn't believe what he said at all, and complained to your eldest sister in private, saying that Brother-in-law would make up nonsense to sow discord. I was so angry that I couldn't bear to see your eldest sister caught in the middle, so I didn't mention it to anyone anymore. ”

It's a coincidence.

In the early years, Zhou Shigong's original Tu family's maiden family always followed Mrs. Ma and Zhou Jinpu to pick the thorn of Zhou Ma's stepfamily. Uncle Ma couldn't bear to see his sister-in-law being wronged, so he found a way to win over the Tu family and let them get less involved in the affairs of the Zhou family's three rooms.

At that time, his leg disease was not serious, and he could speak in Chang'an avant-garde. Chang'an avant-garde originally had a caravan formed by veterans and military families, responsible for doing business to earn money in exchange for grain and grass materials, sometimes buying too much grain and grass, and the caravan could not transport it by itself, so it had to find other caravans to help. Uncle Ma asked his colleagues from time to time to assign this job to the Tu family caravan, and the Tu family accepted his love, and he has benefited a lot over the years, and he has rarely embarrassed Zhou Ma in recent years. It's just that Zhou Jinpu has a deep prejudice against his stepmother, and the Tu family can't persuade anything.

When the Tujia caravan brought things from Zhili for the Chang'an avant-garde last year, they brought with them the family members sent back to Chang'an by Zhou Shuyi to send a letter to her mother. Maybe it's because the Tu family is often sent by Mrs. Ma, and Zhou Shuyi's servants don't treat them as outsiders.

She wanted to tell her baby son a decent and good family affair, but she tried her best to promote the two sides to meet, but the other party's daughter fell in love with the Hou Shizi of Yingchuan who came over inadvertently, and the two families began to talk about marriage. Zhou Shuyi's son has no good marriage, and he wants to see other daughters again, but no girl is as qualified as the one Zhou Shuyi originally fancied. The latter really couldn't swallow this breath in his heart, and it was not easy for Changfang to know, so he could only vent his anger on the people around him in private.

There was a girl who had been waiting for her for many years who was beaten, and then she was assigned an unsatisfactory marriage, so she could only hide at home and cry. This girl's parents were one of the family members who were ordered to come to Chang'an to deliver things, and after drinking, they lost their words and poured out all the bitter water in their hearts.

At that time, this person complained, saying that Zhou Shuyi's favorite daughter-in-law was Sun Gelao's youngest granddaughter and Sun Guifei's niece. This girl has an old grandfather, a father who commands the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, an aunt of the concubine, and a sister of the princess of King Ji, how prominent is her identity? ! I heard that the girl herself is a concubine, and she is also talented and beautiful, and she is pampered at home. Such a famous lady is matched with the Hou Shizi of Yingchuan, that is a good match, a talented woman. Although Zhou Shuyi's son is also a disciple of the Marquis of Yingchuan, he is only a side branch, and his father is only a five-grade idle official, how can the old granddaughter of the pavilion look down on him? It is a matter of course that this family affair is not successful, but Zhu Yu is in front, and Zhou Shuyi no longer looks down on the daughters of other noble officials. I have delusions, but I want to be angry with innocent subordinates and ruin the good girl's family for a lifetime.

Most of the people in the Tu family's caravan were born in Chang'an, and they knew that the relationship between the Zhou family and the Sun family was not harmonious, and they felt very surprised that the Zhou family's foreign daughter would want her son to marry Sun Ge's granddaughter. They knew that it was not good to mention such a thing in front of the old lady Ma of the third room of the Zhou family, but they still couldn't help but talk about it in private, and one of them later met Uncle Ma, and couldn't help but tell him because he asked him.

Uncle Ma was very surprised at the time, and in order to determine whether the matter was true, he also asked his eldest son Ma Luyuan to privately contact the family of the Yingchuan Marquis Mansion who said that he had leaked his mouth, and got a positive answer.

The family got the silver, and revealed some more inside information, saying that Mrs. Ma also knew about this, in order to let her daughter smoothly marry the daughter of the Sun family, she had privately patched up a lot of expensive clothing and jewelry for her daughter since the year before last, and used her private house to buy a lot of precious spices from the Western Regions and gave them to her daughter to give gifts. Zhou Shuyi spent so much money and thought, but she failed to get what she wanted, so she sent someone to write a letter to her mother to cry afterwards. In order to appease her daughter and make her make persistent efforts, Mrs. Ma tried to tell her grandson that a daughter-in-law from a noble background came back, and she also made up for her daughter many good things again.

This family member followed Zhou Shuyi from Chang'an to marry into Beijing in the past, and they themselves are from Chang'an, and some relatives joined the border army. He watched his master mother make a mistake, but he couldn't say anything, and he was already disheartened. Now he only wants to save more money and prepare more for his daughter to marry, so that his daughter's life after marriage can be easier. He knew Uncle Ma's identity, but as long as there was money in the bag, he didn't care about the people next to him.

Uncle Ma got this important news, and felt that Zhou Shigong, the head of the Zhou family's third room, must not know, so he hurriedly went to talk to his sister and brother-in-law, but he didn't expect to be beaten by his brother-in-law. He is also disheartened now, and he no longer wants to ask about his eldest brother-in-law's family. It is not easy for him to manage his own family, the Zhou family doesn't care about the married daughter, why should he talk too much as an outsider?

When he told his little sister Ma about this, he also asked Ma to listen to it, and he didn't have to take it too seriously: "Although the aunt of the third room of the Zhou family has the heart of Gao Pan Sun Ge, but people don't look down on her son, and the marriage is not successful, even if the Zhenguo Mansion knows about it, and she can't punish her for anything." As for the marriage between the Marquis of Yingchuan and the granddaughter of Sun Gelao, that is the matter of the Marquis of Yingchuan, and the Zhou family has no room for more talking.

When he was conspired by Sun Yonglu to seize the property, he wanted to ask Zhou's brother-in-law for help, and Mrs. Ma sent her back in a few sentences. Why didn't you see it at the time? She was afraid that she had already had the intention of colluding with the Sun family, and this time she dug up the border army wall and built a private glass workshop, probably also conspired with the Sun family, just to rob the border army's wealth. It's a pity that Brother-in-law Zhou is useless, and he let go of the old woman's handle several times. Although the Zhou family is accusing the old woman this time, it is still unknown whether she can be crucified in the end! ”

Ma couldn't help but sigh: "After all these years outside, I didn't know that there were so many unsightly things in my eldest sister's family. What did Mrs. Ma think? The Sun family and the Zhou family fought to the death, and she even let her daughter hook up with the Sun family, is this a rush to be a mole? She is not afraid that the Sun family will use Zhou Shuyi to harm the Zhou family, Zhou Shuyi will not have the support of her mother's family, and she will not be able to raise her head in her husband's house? Her own son is also a member of the Zhou family, and he also relies on the border army to eat, why can't he think about it like this, and he has to destroy his foundation? ! ”

"I also think she's old and confused, but who calls her a good son and grandson who is filial?" Uncle Ma smiled bitterly, "The Zhou family doesn't care about her in the third room, and she is in charge of everything, if she loses in the future, she deserves it." I only hope that the Ma family will not be too depressed by then, and they will be able to help your eldest sister and two nephews. If you really can't catch it, you have to rely on you and Brother-in-law Hai to help. ”

"No, no." Ma Shi hurriedly said, "Isn't Old Madam Ma going to be punished now?" Her daughter didn't climb to the Sun family. Everything is still in time, turn around and discuss with the master, and think about reminding the Zhou family to beware. ”

Ma tried to comfort his brother, but he didn't know that his granddaughter Haitang had eaten a mouthful of new melons on the side, and she couldn't wait to share it with her brother.
