wedge!
It was night, in an abandoned wooden house on the outskirts of Qianzhou.
Waves of screams came from the backyard. The screams were heartbreaking and seemed to be in great pain.
"That's right, your mother had a dystocia that day and it was me who poisoned her. Now that you know it, what can you do? If you want to blame it, blame your father for being ruthless. If he hadn't doted on me, how could I have monopolized her as an aunt? Daquan, even take action against your mother? "
A woman wearing a long blue satin dress grabbed the hair of the girl who was rolling on the ground. The girl's face was covered with blood and her body was bloody.
The woman in green said fiercely: "How dare you question me as my legitimate daughter? I have tolerated you all these years, do you think I am afraid of you? I just want a good name, since you don't give me the face Don't blame me for being rude. I want you to know that in my eyes, you are an ant that can be crushed to death with one hand. So what about my legitimate daughter? I am now a wife, and the child I gave birth to is also my legitimate son. female."
When the girl opened her eyes, she saw only blood. She cursed hysterically, "Ms. Han, you have to die a good death. Even if I'm a ghost, I won't let you go."
"Then you go and become a ghost." The woman in green stood up and stepped on the back of her hand. Fury burst out from her eyes, "I want to see how you won't let me go when you become a ghost."
"Father knows that he will never let you go." The girl roared.
"Hahaha!" The woman in green laughed loudly, "You are really naive to the extreme. If your father only cares about the relationship between father and daughter, you will not end up like this."
After saying that, she clapped her hands and spat at her contemptuously, "You don't know how to live or die, and you still want to marry into the Marquis's house as a young lady? Even if you don't come to question me, I can't let you go. Don't worry, you My sister will marry the Third Young Master on your behalf!”
She turned around and went out, with a proud and arrogant look on her face, and coldly ordered the servant girl beside her, "Get a fire, burn this wooden house, burn her."
The fire started to rise, and before the woman in green clothes got on the carriage, she glanced at the wooden house that was burning in the wind, "Ms. Li, I am treating you well and send your daughter to be reunited with you!"
Five years later!
The residence of the prefect of Cizhou.
"Madam, someone from the Qi Mansion told me that the third lady is very happy to have Lin'er!" A servant woman entered the Yiliang Pavilion with a smile and reported the good news to the prefect's wife, Mrs. Han, with a smile.
The lady in blue brocade clothes looked overjoyed when she heard this, "Seriously?"
"It's absolutely true. The person who brought the good news is waiting for you, madam, to reward you outside."
"Reward, there will be reward!" Mrs. Han quickly ordered, "Mother Li, wrap some snacks for him to eat on the road, and tell his relatives that I will go tomorrow."
"Yes!" Mother Li smiled and ordered the maid outside the door, and then came in to clean up the needlework on the table, "It's not easy. It has been three years since Miss San was married. She gave birth to two daughters in three years, and finally gave birth to a son. "
Mrs. Han sighed softly, "No, since she was pregnant with this child, my heart has been in a state of confusion. If I don't give birth to a brother, my biological mother will have to put people in my son-in-law's house again. , In the past three years, he has had seven or eight married women in his house, and he has also raised three aunts. Why is Ayu so miserable! "
Mother Li smiled and consoled her: "Isn't it now that all the hard work has come to an end? Don't sigh anymore, madam. Besides, the young master's wedding will be next month, and the third lady has a brother again. It's really a double happiness."
"Yes, A-Jin's wedding day happens to be A-Yu's confinement, so she can come back and drink her brother's wedding banquet. I'm finally relieved."
Mr. Han stroked his temples and looked at himself in the bronze mirror. In the past few years, his life had been prosperous and he was much richer than before. "Where is the master?"
"Master is still in the government office. If I hear the good news when I come back in the evening, I'm afraid I'll be rewarded by the government." Mother Li said happily.
"Isn't that true? He is more anxious than me because Ayu can't give birth to a son." Han said.
Liang Zhiyuan, the prefect of Cizhou, was formerly the magistrate of Qianzhou. In five years, he was promoted from a small seventh-rank magistrate to a full-fledged fifth-rank magistrate. It was the time when the spring breeze was triumphant and the horseshoes were broken, and his son, Xiao Dengke, married the grandson of a famous family in Cizhou. As for the legitimate daughter of the family, the daughter who married into the Ningyuan Marquis Mansion was delighted with Lin'er. He was so happy that, as Li's mother said, the whole family rewarded her.
At this festive time, famous merchants and officials from Cizhou came to visit one after another.
Liang Zhiyuan received all the guests personally and did not send the guests away until around 10:00 in the evening.
He returned to the room, stretched his body, and said to Han happily: "Our Liang family has not been so lively for a long time."
Han took off his outer clothes for him, then directed his subordinates to serve hot water and tea, and said with a smile: "These good days will continue to come. Master, just wait and enjoy the blessings. Now that we have promoted the governor of Cizhou, maybe in three years When your term is over, the superiors will promote you to the throne. I’m afraid it won’t be long before you become an official.”
Liang Zhiyuan said: "How can it be so easy? I never have enough connections."
"I will go to the Hou Mansion to visit Yu'er tomorrow, and send a message to our son-in-law, asking him to say a few good words in front of the Marquis. Although the Marquis is not in the court now, he still has connections. He said, It’s better than you doing it for three years.”
Liang Zhiyuan nodded, "Yes, although Ning Yuanhou, the Marquis, does not have much power now, but there are still three pounds of nails in the ruined ship. If back then, he could marry the third young master Su Qing, it would be different. Then Su Qing Ye, why did you fall in love with A Li? Yu'er is much better than her. It's a pity that A Li died, otherwise he would still be able to get married with Jing Hou. "
Hearing the name A Li, Han's eyes flashed with coldness, and then returned to normal, "Yes, it is a pity, but after all, this child A Li was raised outside, and he is not close to the master. , always thought that the master had harmed her mother, and wanted to live in that wooden house. Didn't this disgrace the master? Let people know that the master, as a parent official, expelled his legitimate daughter and spread the news. There’s no need to mess around with this officialdom.”
There was a hint of disgust in Liang Zhiyuan's eyes, "So, forget it if you die, she brought everything on her own."
Mrs. Han served him tea and said with a smile: "Okay, on such a great day, why do you talk about unhappy things?"
Liang Zhiyuan held Mr. Han's hand and said with emotion: "You have worked hard these years to give birth to sensible daughters for me, and they are both promising. I met Mr. Li the day before yesterday and said that Brother Jin should be able to "Win."
"Really?" Ms. Han was overjoyed, "Really? Isn't it true that the rankings haven't been announced yet?"
"Who is Mr. Li? He and Mr. Zhang, the examiner, are cousins. Isn't it easy to know the inside story?"
Mrs. Han raised her head, and a smile spread on her face. Only when her son succeeds will her real good days come.
"I have to go and offer incense to my ancestors right away." After saying that, she left in a hurry.
Standing in front of the ancestral tablet in Liang Mansion, she sneered at the tablet on the lower right, which read, "My ancestor Yang Shuzhen gave birth to the lotus tablet of the West."
She sneered, "You and your daughter cursed me before you died so that I would not die a good death. It's a pity that I disappointed you. I lived a good life and my children have made great achievements. Are you going to die in peace?"
