Jin Fengju deliberately walked slowly and looked at Fu Qiuning's shadow on the ground. He clenched his fists unconsciously and secretly made a vow in his heart. It was at this moment that he discovered that this woman had entered his heart at some point and firmly occupied an indestructible position.
When they arrived at Kangshouyuan, they saw Mrs. Jiang, Mrs. Fang and others there. Everyone was very surprised when they saw Jin Fengju and Fu Qiuning coming. The most surprised ones were Jiang Wanying, Aunt Xu and others. But I heard Jin Fengju laugh and say: "You and I have nothing to do today, and the ladies have finished their work. I thought that our ancestors have eaten a lot of Qiuning these days, so it is appropriate to treat them to a meal, so I invited them to have a meal, I guess my ancestors won't be stingy and ask for food money from their grandchildren, right?"
"Listen to what he said, he actually tried to squeeze me." Old Mrs. Jin was very happy. She spared Fu Qiuning and the two children's gifts, ordered people to give them seats, and said to Jiang Wanying, Aunt Xu and others: "You guys If you have anything to do, go and get busy. I'll play cards here for a while." Then Mrs. Fang said, "Your master can't come back at this time. If you have anything to do, let your wife handle it. You can stay here and play with me for a while." Your sister-in-law has to recite the Buddha's name every day at this time, which is a great merit, so I won't stop her. Let her recite it a few more times, as if she is reciting it for me, and let me earn some merit too."
Everyone laughed when he said this, and Jiang Wanying came over and said: "Ancestors can't be so partial. I work every day, why shouldn't I have some free time? Today I will let my granddaughter-in-law play cards with you, and I will do it for you." Keep an eye on the cards to prevent others from causing trouble."
Jin Fengju smiled and said: "You guys are playing here, but I want to go to my brother-in-law's place. He didn't know that some friend was coming, and he kept asking me to go. Fortunately, I have some errands, so I can push it away. Today is ten thousand I can't put it down." After saying that, he said to Fu Qiuning: "Don't be too busy leaving. It's rare to come to say hello, so just sit and play with the ancestors for a while. Anyway, it will be good for you. At least you can earn a fortune. It’s lunch, isn’t it?”
Everyone laughed at what he said, and the old lady spat at him several times with a smile. Jin Fengju then laughed and left. Fu Qiuning had no choice but to sit aside as Old Mrs. Jin deliberately tried to persuade her to stay. Mrs. Pian Jiang wanted to stay and join in the fun today, so Mrs. Jin, Mrs. Jiang, Mrs. Fang and an old lady from a relative got together to play cards. The old lady smiled at Jiang Wanying and said, "You go and look at the cards for your mother-in-law. I'll let Qiu Yatou look at the cards here." So Fu Qiuning sat next to the old lady Jin, and Jiang Wanying had to sit behind Mrs. Jiang.
After playing for an hour, Mrs. Jiang and Jiang Wanying retired. Old Mrs. Jin also had a great time and said with a smile: "I've never had so much fun as I did today. That's all. I'm tired too. You guys go down and let's go." Qiu girl, please talk to me."
Mrs. Jiang and Jiang Wanying withdrew. As soon as they returned to Mrs. Jiang's room, Jiang Wanying's eyes were red. She pulled Mrs. Jiang's sleeves and said with tears in her eyes: "Aunt, look at my cousin. He... was as big as yesterday. The wind didn't stop him from running to Mrs. Fu's room. He just went there. Why did he bring them here to pay respects to their ancestors this morning? Isn't this a slap in my face? She She is my cousin's real wife. Who am I, my ordinary wife? Where should I put it? My ancestor was also confused. Somehow, she managed to coax Mrs. Fu into coaxing her around and protecting her in every possible way. If this continues, she should Now that I have entered the palace, I...how can I still gain a foothold in this house?"
Mrs. Jiang was also quite annoyed with her son about this matter. She patted Jiang Wanying's hand and comforted her: "My son, you don't have to be afraid. Your aunt will make the decision for you in everything. Now I can see clearly that your cousin has been waiting for a long time." He is willing to divorce his wife, and now he runs to that night Fengxuan frequently. It seems that Hu Meizi really doesn’t know what kind of ecstasy soup he drank. He is determined to promote the Fu family. I just ask you, do they have any Haven’t had sex?”
Fu Qiuning just cried, which made Mrs. Jiang ask anxiously, and then mumbled: "Before... I asked my cousin once before, and he said he didn't like her and never had sex with her, but... just how many times has my cousin been there these days? ? Even when we spend the night there, there are always five or six days a month. So I didn’t ask again, for fear of getting angry. Isn’t this obvious? At this point, we didn’t have sex. How can my cousin treat her so well?"
Mrs. Jiang stumbled and sighed: "We made a mistake. If they haven't had sex yet, then Mrs. Fu has been married for nearly seven years and is still a virgin. How can she have the dignity to be a wife? There is no need for Fengju to write a letter of divorce, as long as she We can pick a day when he is not around and drive her out. When we return to the Zhenjiang Palace, those people will not be able to allow her, a woman who was driven back to her parents' home, to live. We can avoid future troubles. But... it happened to them. They actually had sex as husband and wife, so... isn't it difficult to get rid of that woman now?"
Jiang Wanying cried and said: "Then... what should we do, aunt? Do you think my cousin is planning to let her move into the backyard? Although I have made a plan, this plan is not temporary. It would be effective, but she would have to wait a few months. I am afraid that by then, she would have already entered the backyard openly. If her father-in-law came back, he liked scholars the most, and he always said that heroes do not care about their origins. That day, my cousin said: The father-in-law didn't agree with the two children's indifference, and now if he sees those two children being so promising and lovable, then... wouldn't it be even more difficult to drive her out? "
Mrs. Jiang pondered: "You are right. However, how can we drive her away now? You and I are women after all. As long as Feng Ju is here in this family, it is not our turn to deal with his first wife. Otherwise, he would have listened to me and written a letter of divorce a few months ago. Besides, now that the two of us look so good, it would be impossible for him to divorce his wife. No, we have to think of another idea to make Feng Ju disappointed in her. Ying, you have always been a scheming person, so don’t panic at this time, think carefully and see if there is anything we can take advantage of?"
As of now, this is all that can be done. Fortunately, my aunt is always on her side. Jiang Wanying thought with some consolation, wiped her tears and said: "Yes, I know, aunt. When I go back, think about it. In fact, I am not just jealous. My cousin has outstanding character, and it is inevitable that everyone will love him. If he wants to I won’t object to bringing in new people. It’s just that Mrs. Fu, her life experience is really not suitable for our family, let alone the position of my cousin’s wife? She used it to humiliate us back then. Now if my cousin is really Being with her, wouldn't it make people laugh at our Jin Xianghou Mansion for being spineless? Even the concubine of the Prince of Zhenjiang would see it?"
"My son, what you said is absolutely true. Why didn't I drive her away because of this reason? Otherwise, how could I be willing to do such evil things? Amitabha." Mrs. Jiang clasped her hands together and said helplessly. Jiang Wanying saw her mother-in-law's expression turning pale and knew that she was even more moved by her words, so she blessed her and turned around to leave.
When I returned to Qingwan Pavilion, I couldn't figure it out even after thinking hard. Jiang Wanying was irritated when she suddenly saw Qiuxia coming in through the curtain and saying, "Grandma, it's time to distribute the monthly quota for this month. Because we delayed it for a few days, Aunt Huo's people came to ask her. They don't usually do it on weekdays." It’s easy to get along with me, so I came here to ask for grandma’s instructions.”
Jiang Wanying sneered and said: "Who can show you this poor look? Do you think I don't know? The dowry properties from their parents' families are more than a hundred taels of silver a month. How can they make ten taels of silver a month?" Are you looking at my monthly reports? This is obviously a deliberate attempt to embarrass me. Forget it, go ahead and tell me to send out all the monthly reports. Anyway, after these few days, I have made enough." As he said that, Slowly stood up from the bed and watched Qiuxia go out.
"It's just a few taels of silver per month. Those little maids only have five hundred coins. They can't even see the stars of the silver. It's just that although the money is small, if it is gone, there is really no way to survive." See Qiuxia. , Jiang Wanying couldn't help but talk to herself here to enjoy the pleasure of controlling everyone's life and death.
Suddenly the expression on her face froze, as if she had remembered something. Just at this time, Qiuxia came in again and reported back: "Grandma, as you said, I have asked people to distribute the monthly routines. Grandma can take a look..." Before she could finish, she stopped. He opened his mouth and looked anxiously at his master who was sitting on the bed and seemed to be possessed.
"Qiuxia, let me ask you. A family of five cannot get any food, let alone money. How long do you think they can live?" Suddenly Jiang Wanying asked, although Qiuxia didn't know Therefore, he still answered: Five people? Can’t even get enough food and clothing? You can’t even get silver or copper coins? How to live? He will definitely starve to death in less than half a month, right? "
"That's right, I can't live more than half a month." Jiang Wanying clenched her hands into fists and slapped them on the table. She looked at Qiuxia with wolf-like eyes. She shivered in fright, and suddenly heard her grandmother's sinister question. He said: "In that case, how did they survive? And they only lived for six years. How did they survive?"
"Grandma...who is grandma talking about? Could it be...could there be something that can turn into a spirit..." Qiuxia was not so stupid at first, but she was frightened by her grandma's eyes before, and now her mind was a little hard to turn. Come on, as soon as I asked the question tremblingly, Jiang Wanying gave me a fierce look: "You stupid thing, I'm talking about Wanfengxuan? How did those five people from Wanfengxuan survive to this day?"
