Chapter 220 I'm not afraid of you making fun of Xuanjia because he loves his daughter
Earl's Mansion of Yongchang withered and decayed seems to have green shoots emerging, and then the old image can finally be replaced.
But Chongfu is another scene.
Chongfu is located in a slightly remote location. The houses here are naturally relatively cheap. Mrs. Chong ordered the book boy to carry Chong Bingwen, who was drunk as mud, into the house.
Her brows are deeply furrowed, which makes her look extra mean. After seeing Chong Bingwen being fed sober tea, he took the book boy serving by Chong Bingwen back to his room.
"what happened?"
The bookboy lowered his head, not daring to speak.
Madam Zhong asked coldly.
"Did he go to see that vixen again! Say!"
The book boy shivered in fright, and quickly knelt down on the ground.
"Old madam, Mrs. Song is very heavy. She has been unwell for the past few days. It is inevitable for me to be worried."
Old lady Zhong smiled coldly.
"If you feel unwell, go to the doctor!"
"Bah! He's been fascinated, and that vixen outside is sticking to him because he sees my son's background as a Jinshi and his future as a scholar in the Imperial Academy! He has no good intentions. He won't let him see you again. "
"Remember it for me. Once I see you, I will break one of your legs. How many legs can you break? Did you hear me?"
The book boy was only twelve or thirteen years old, and when he heard the words, he said sadly: "I heard it, I heard it."
The book boy left tremblingly.
"Old madam, why are you so angry?" The woman squeezed her shoulders.
Old Madam Chong thought of Xuan Ai, and she couldn't help feeling anxious.
"I've been beating drums in my heart for the past few days. Why do you think brother Chong's daughter-in-law is still staying at her mother's house?"
The mother-in-law comforted: "I think I can't bear to miss my family. Don't worry, old lady. This old lady Wu has already gone to invite someone. Grandma is filial, so she will come back naturally."
Old lady Zhong sneered.
"Missing home? What did you say, Zhongjia is her home right now."
"In the past, she looked at filial piety, who knows how to arrange me in her heart? If it weren't for my in-laws to support Brother Wen, why would I dare not even show my mother-in-law's money in front of her?"
She loves Xuan Ai on the surface, but in the end she has a lot of opinions.
After all, Xuan Ai's status is too noble. Not too light but not too heavy.
"My nephew's daughter-in-law has only been in the family for half a year, and she has a body. Fortunately, she hasn't moved at all."
Had it not been the case, she would have dealt with that goblin outside long ago.
In the final analysis, Xuan Ai is also to blame. If she was more upbeat, why would Chong Bingwen be obsessed with the one outside?
Although annoyed, the old lady gave orders to the end.
"When you turn around, go there for a run. After all, you are seven months old. Bring more supplements. The blood swallow that Xuan Ai gave me last time, I'm not willing to drink it, so take it with you. Let me remind you For the sake of the child, I am willing to give her face, but if my son's future is ruined because of her, I will pluck her skin!"
But her heart was beating fast again.
"The in-law's wife is very arrogant. If she knows, the sky will collapse. How dare I neglect her daughter."
Speaking of this, she became angry.
Chongjia is not a big family, but it is decent, and the house is enough.
Until, Xuan Ai started.
After all, it is a noble girl's style, and there are dozens of dowry maids around, how many servants, how many wives, and even the dowry is piled up in a yard. So much so that the heavy family could not be resettled.
Xuan Ai thought about it back then. It is very difficult.
She went to see Mrs. Chong at that time.
Old Mrs. Chong joyfully took her hand, expressing her sincerity. He never pulled his face down and said that he was half inaccurate, but the meaning was revealed between the lines.
—You are a heavy housewife, maybe you are young, and you don’t think carefully. The house is expanded as soon as you enter the door, and it is comfortable to live in. But if I act like this, I'm afraid my son will be laughed at in the officialdom.
—He is a promising person, so he will naturally not let you down or let down the Yue family in the future.
This makes sense.
Xuan Ai had no choice but to send some people back to the Earl's Mansion of Yongchang.
But what!
Those slaves were sent back by Xuan E.
Xuan E slapped her in the face on the grounds that she loves her!
Mrs. Chong still remembers what Xuan E said.
—When we got engaged, we met with my aunt. Before we got married, the dowry list could include these slaves as dowry.
—Yes, I admit, there are indeed too many slaves, but they were the ones who served my sister in the Xuan family. Five serving servants, my sister would have thirty. Other girls wear gold and silver, and my master bought a gold shop when she was born.
—Now that I am married, I am afraid of embarrassing my in-laws, so I don't ask too much. My uncle only needs to have a smooth official career and treat my daughter well. The affairs of this house are paid by my sister herself. Why not? Why bother to be surprised by what people say. Uncle is promising, and when he rises to the top in the future, he will be able to slap those talkative people in the face, wife, don't you think so?
What can she say!
Xuan E's every word and every word is gagging her mouth.
Countess Yongchang is really amazing. She can only smile uglier than anyone else.
In the end, the small house next door was bought by Mrs. Zhuang, who was next to Xuan Ai, and went to the government to enter the household. Down.
Back then, after Xuan Ai accepted the land deed, she didn't think much about it. As far as she was concerned, it was enough to buy a house that could accommodate people. But for Mrs. Zhong, it was extremely uncomfortable.
Tangled in the heart, like a stick in the throat.
Especially when I heard someone talking behind my back.
—This Chong family has great skills, and marrying a Xuan family girl is a step up to the sky.
—It can be considered that the Chong family has been spoiled by the daughter-in-law.
Fortunately, over the past two years, Xuan Ai's temper has become softer and softer under her intentions or unconsciousness.
It's very easy to handle.
Seeing the resentment of Mrs. Chong, the mother-in-law hurriedly advised: "Our master is in the Imperial Academy as a editor. From the sixth grade, he is a promising person! He will be a high-ranking official in the future, who dares to look down on him?"
Mrs. Zhong's complexion did not improve.
"It was revised two years ago, why is it still revised now. The Xuan family didn't know how to plan for him!"
She seems to have forgotten all the benefits she has gained from Xuanjia these years. The Hanlin Academy is not so easy to enter. If Uncle Yongchang hadn't been the guarantor, whether Chong Bingwen could have entered or not is another matter.
The two of them were talking when they saw Mrs. Wu who was sent to the Xuan Mansion come in a panic.
"Old lady."
"what happened?"
Mrs. Chong looked behind her, but she didn't see Xuan Ai. His face darkened at that time.
"What about people?"
Wu Pozi lowered her head.
"I haven't seen Grandma at all."
"... was kicked out by the people of Xuanfu. Let the old slave go."
Old Madam Zhong felt her heart skip a beat and stood up abruptly.
"What!"
