At the beginning of this storm, the turbulent Dragon Boat Festival family banquet is finally coming to an end, la la la...
Therefore, I still sincerely, sincerely, sincerely ask for recommendation votes, and ask for everything, 嘤嘤嘤嘤...
*******************
"You entered the house the same year as Wanying, right?" Just as he was thinking about it, Mrs. Jiang, who was in charge, also spoke. Fu Qiuning thought: Here, my niece didn't take advantage, so my aunt took action. That's all, for the sake of future peace, as long as she doesn't go too far, I'll just put up with my anger for now. Thinking of this, he lowered his head and replied, "Yes."
"Why haven't I heard of you going back to your parents' home in these years? I heard that your parents are still there. As a daughter, you should go back and have a look. If you don't even have this little filial piety towards your parents, how can you be expected to be here? Do you want to serve the old lady and me well in the house? Why don't we find time to send you back to your parents' home." Mrs. Jiang said lightly, her meaning was very clear: if you go back this time, you don't have to come back again.
Fu Qiuning was choked. He never expected that Mrs. Jiang could be so cruel, forcing herself to die as soon as she opened her mouth. Why don't you go back to your parents' home? Who in this house doesn't have a clear mind? Now he has been accused of being unfilial. In feudal society, this big hat is not so easy to deal with, let alone a woman, even if it is a man.
Therefore, the anger in her heart surged up several times, but she was forced to suppress it. After a long while, she left her seat, bowed deeply in front of Mrs. Jiang and said: "I am ashamed. Since I married into the Hou Mansion, even though I am a The young marquis's first wife, however, has an ordinary appearance and a limited education. She offends her parents-in-law when they meet her, and she has not been able to serve her for a day. Why don't I want to go back to my parents' home? It's just that I haven't made any achievements in my husband's family, and I really don't have the nerve to go back to visit my parents. She is so affectionate I can’t explain my hardships to outsiders. Since my wife has shown mercy today, I am extremely grateful. Thank you so much for your thoughtfulness. For so many years, I only thought that my wife disliked me, but now I realize that I was wrong. , My wife is obviously caring and considerate to me, but I actually treat a gentleman with the heart of a villain. I am here to make amends to my wife."
At first glance, these words sounded full of self-blame, regret, and embarrassment, which can be said to be extremely weak. However, if you take a closer look, you will know that every word in it is like a knife, pointing directly at the injustice done to him by the Hou family, but there is not a single word that questions or accuses him. Who are all here? Is there any truth that cannot be heard? Mrs. Jiang's face looked a little ugly at that moment. Suddenly I heard the old lady above say: "That's all, why are you causing all these things? Fengju's wife is weak and sick, so she has been raised in Wanfengxuan. Now there is nothing going on, and it's not like her parents sent her along. Why are you going back to your parents' house for no reason when the letter comes? It's better to take good care of yourself and wait until you can move around more."
Although the old lady's words relieved Fu Qiuning from the fate of being divorced and returned home, they also gave the Hou Mansion a little distinction. Of course, everyone here knew why Fu Qiuning was left out. This kind of distinction can be said to be meaningless. But this is the case for these wealthy families. They must say what they say in front of others, even if no one believes them. This can also be regarded as one of the more interesting parts of life in house fighting.
So Fu Qiuning stood up again and thanked the old lady. After everyone talked together for a while, the old lady said to Jiang Wanying: "Find someone to ask the kitchen. If the banquet is ready, then set it up. The sun is so high, I'm afraid it won't arrive in a while." At noon, everyone must be hungry."
Jiang Wanying agreed and stood up, assigning a personal maid to go out to inquire. Suddenly, there was a burst of noise and laughter, but several children came in. Fu Qiuning and Yuniang Yujie quickly looked at Jin Zangfeng and Jin Zangjiao. They saw that the two brothers and sisters did not seem to be bullied, but there were some signs on their faces. The resentment and gloomy look on his face must have come from hearing some bad ridicule.
"Eh? Where are the jade pendants of Brother Feng and Sister Jiao?" Suddenly they heard Mrs. Fang calling out. Fu Qiuning and Yu Niang Yujie hurriedly looked at the two brothers and sisters. Sure enough, the jade pendants tied to their belts were gone. disappeared.
Jin Zangfeng and Jin Zangjiao pursed their lips and said nothing until they came to Fu Qiuning, with tears falling down like beads. They both stretched out their fisted hands to their mother, only to see the jade pendant broken into several pieces in their palms. Lying inside, the sharp edge pierced the child's palm, and blood oozed out.
Fu Qiuning felt anger rising to the top of his head, his face suddenly turned cold and stern, and he clenched his fists tightly. After a long while, she took a few deep breaths, looked at the two children and said with a smile: "Why are you so careless? It's just a coincidence that I have been wearing this jade pendant in Wanfengxuan for many days without any problems, so I turned around and It broke into pieces. Did you see that there were many flowers and trees in the yard of your ancestors? You were also playful, so you neglected it?"
Jin Zangfeng and Jin Zangjiao glanced at her, and when they saw her shaking her head slightly, they both lowered their heads and said, "It's my son (daughter) who was careless. Please punish me."
A smile appeared on Fu Qiuning's face, he took out the broken pieces of the jade pendant and handed them to Yu Niang: "After all, it was given to me by the young Marquis. Even if it is broken, I have to keep it for the children." After saying that, he turned to face her. The two brothers and sister said: "Well, look at the palms of these little hands. The skin is broken. Mom can't even feel sorry for her. How can she be punished? It's just two jade pendants. It's fine as long as everything is fine. I think your father must think so too." After speaking, he touched the hair of the brother and sister and said warmly: "Okay, go and wash your hands quickly. You can follow Yu Jie. If the bleeding doesn't stop, wrap it up a little."
Suddenly I heard the old lady say: "What's wrong with the palm of your hand? Come over here and let me take a look."
Fu Qiuning hurriedly stood up and said: "Back to our ancestors, it's okay. It's just that children are playful and are afraid of being scolded by their father, so they don't dare to throw away the jade pendant. Holding it in the palm of your hand, the skin is broken. It's just a trauma, no. If you dare to disturb the ancestors, just wash them." After saying that, Old Mrs. Jin was not willing to obey her. She called the two children over and looked at them carefully, then looked at the whole body a few times, and then said with a smile: "It's really Good and sensible child, go and wash yourself. Luo Cui, follow the children, find the good ointment in my house, and apply a little bit on them." After that, he said to Fu Qiuning: "Where are you young people? Do you know how powerful these things are? Many serious illnesses are often caused by not paying attention to small injuries, so it is better to be more cautious."
Fu Qiuning quickly thanked the old lady with a gift. Knowing that this was the old lady's deliberate attempt to compensate her and her brother and sister, she felt a little more comfortable. However, she also understood that the old lady's partiality would definitely make Mrs. Jiang and Jin Fengju's wives and concubines unhappy, but she no longer wanted to care about it at this time. These women had nothing to do every day and only cared about stirring up trouble and jealousy for the limelight. They had already lost their minds. There is some distortion, and even their children, at a young age, cannot see the good things in others and are jealous by nature. No wonder Jin Fengju seemed to like being close to Jin Zangfeng and Jin Zangjiao as soon as he saw them. How could the other biological children be so virtuous and please such an arrogant person like him? (To be continued)
