When magistrate Fu went out, he heard voices coming from the next room, and the door panel couldn't block Fu Wenhua's loud voice at all.
He is complaining to Mrs. Fu, "Mom, you don't know how hateful that old woman of the Yue family is. When I left, she was still leaning on the door to ruin our family's reputation."
Mrs. Fu had just listened to Fu Nanny and Chuncao's story about the dangers of the delivery day, and now her face and neck were flushed with anger, and she was even angrier when she heard her son say that, "Fortunately, your father is on the same level as him right now. Now, even if the foreign official is worse than the Beijing official, we are not afraid of him!"
"Yes, it's a big deal to take the second sister home, and bring the nephew too. Hmph, let's see if they dare to bully the second sister."
"This won't work. Your second sister is going back to Jianzhou. It is your second sister who is ashamed. We have to settle this matter in the capital. Otherwise, I would rather rent a house in the capital and take care of your sister for a year or so. I don't believe it, they are willing not to see this grandson."
"Yes, then I will gamble on Yue Lan every day and beat him three times a day to see if he still dares to bully my sister."
Mrs. Fu said: "Don't hit too hard when hitting, or your sister will have to worry about it in the future."
"I know, I just beat the pain, not the disabled."
Magistrate Fu, who was listening outside the door, felt his heart ache even more. It was okay for him to hear this before, but after hearing what his daughter said, he felt that he had made a mistake.
It would be great if the daughter and son were opposite.
Magistrate Fu rubbed his chest and left.
Mrs. Fu and her son condemned the Yue family and said to Madam Fu: "This time, it is thanks to the little lady of the Zhou family. Did the second mother prepare a generous gift in return?"
"No," Madam Fu lowered her head and said, "Miss didn't even pay the consultation fee."
When Mrs. Fu heard the words, she knew that it was because her daughter treated Zhou Man very seriously, or because the two of them had a deep friendship, and the money was no longer enough. She sighed and said: "Forget it, she will calculate her share later. We are here to prepare a generous gift."
Mother Fu laughed and said, "Madam, why should you worry about this? First, when I was in Jianzhou, I received letters from her twice a month, which is closer than my wife and my uncle's house. I don't think Miss Man cares about these vain gifts." people."
Mrs. Fu glanced at the sleeping child, gently put the child in the cradle, and said: "Although I don't care, but the etiquette cannot be broken, the master and I can't stay in the capital for too long, and the second mother will stay here in the capital." There is nothing to rely on, and there is a support for getting closer to friends."
Fu Wenhua curled his lips and said: "Mother, didn't you dislike the relationship between the second sister and Zhou Man before? Every time she writes, you are not happy."
Mrs. Fu patted him and said, "One moment, another moment, understand? At that time, I was afraid that she would teach your second sister badly. Look at your second sister, who used to be so obedient and obedient, but ended up making friends with her." Afterwards, she didn’t learn the piano, nor did she learn how to cook, so she just read books all day long, and wanted to go out with you all day long, because she said in a letter that the scenery sitting on the tree is very unique, Your sister is going to move the ladder to climb the tree..."
When Mrs. Fu mentioned this at this time, she felt very complicated in her heart.
Originally, her two daughters were very well-behaved, but her son was a bit naughty, and she only needed to pay a little attention, but because of Zhou Man, the second daughter changed instantly.
When her daughter became disobedient, she had to devote a little more attention to teaching her daughter, but as a result, her daughter hadn't taught her well, and instead she made her son more mischievous.
Mrs. Fu was even busier, so she didn't like Zhou Man very much, because she felt that half of her tiredness was Zhou Man's responsibility.
But at this moment, the daughter is alone in the capital, with no relatives by her side, and her husband's family is mean, so a friend, especially a capable friend, is very important.
Even if she can't help, her daughter will feel better if she talks occasionally.
So Mrs. Fu wanted to mend the relationship between the two parties. She said to Madam Fu: "Prepare more gifts. We don't need to keep the local products we brought from Jianzhou for the Yue family. Let some of them be used for the master's relationship, and the rest Give it all to her."
Mrs. Fu was still a little lucky, and said with a smile: "Fortunately, she doesn't know that I don't like her. When the child is full moon, we can still invite her to come to have full moon wine."
Fu Wenhua on the side shrank his head and did not speak.
Mrs. Fu paused when she saw it, and couldn't help but fell silent. After a while, she asked, "Wenhua, have you talked nonsense with Miss Zhou since you came to Beijing?"
Fu Wenhua wanted to shake his head, but he couldn't shake his head under his mother's gaze.
Mrs. Fu endured it, but in the end she couldn't hold it back, reached out and pinched his ears, patted him several times, then turned around and wiped her tears to find magistrate Fu, she felt so wronged, why did she give birth to such a disobedient son Woolen cloth
County Magistrate Fu had already gone back to the house to think about how to persuade Yue Wei when he saw him tomorrow. At this moment, Mrs. Fu came in wiping her tears, and County Magistrate Fu felt a little headache.
By the way, his daughter's matter also needs to be resolved. We can't let that old woman of Yue's family step on his daughter to be inappropriate, right
Although the matter was over and Fu Wenyun enlightened him a little bit, magistrate Fu was still very angry when he thought about it.
The Yue family heard about it within two hours after County Magistrate Fu and the others entered Beijing. After all, their family's servants have been guarding outside.
Yue Lan came to pick up Fu Wenyun in person yesterday, but she couldn't even get in.
Mr. Yue wanted to pick him up by himself, but he was very smart. He knew that it would be useless for him to pick up his daughter-in-law at this time. Even if Fu Wenhua would invite him in due to his status, he would definitely use various methods Excuses for refusing to go home.
Obviously, this matter was beyond the reach of a few children. He could only wait for his in-laws to come to Beijing, and he personally came to apologize.
Fu Wenyun thought that Yue Wei would come to the door the next day, but she didn't expect Yue Wei to come to the door with his wife and children after leaving the Yamen that day.
When County Magistrate Fu heard about it, he went to his daughter's room first, and said to her, "You father-in-law is more courageous than you think."
After pondering for a moment, Fu Wenyun said: "Father, isn't this a good thing?"
Magistrate Fu shook his head, not necessarily a good thing, because he wasn't sure that Yue Wei would listen to the persuasion.
But he still led his wife and children to the front hall to greet him.
As soon as the two relatives met, Yue Wei immediately stepped forward, and bowed deeply before reaching him, "Brother Ziliang, Wei is ashamed of entrusting you."
County magistrate Fu hurriedly stepped forward, grasped his hand and helped him up, and said with a sad face: "Brother Yue, you are breaking me, please don't do that."
Seeing that he was not angry, Yue Wei couldn't make up his mind for a moment, so he turned around and pulled his stupid son up, kicked him in the hollow of his knee and made him kneel down, "Hurry up and apologize to your father-in-law and mother-in-law. , have you ever treated your own wife like this?"
Yue Lan knocked down with a bruised nose and a swollen face. Magistrate Fu looked down at him for a while, and finally sighed: "Forget it, let him get up, let's go into the room to talk."
Yue Wei breathed a sigh of relief, and hurried into the house hand in hand with County Magistrate Fu.
