New widow

The housekeeper stepped back to prepare, and Mr. Kuang said to Mrs. Wan again: "Mother-in-law, please sit down first. Speaking of which, we haven't seen each other for almost 20 years."

"It's been 20 years, and the last time I saw you was at my home." Mrs. Wan said, staring at Mr. Kuang: "At that time, you did bad things and asked my daughter to follow you back to your hometown."

Mr. Kuang was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "This happened many years ago. At that time, I was not thinking carefully and did not think of my mother-in-law's love for her daughter."

"Today, you can stop covering up." After saying that, Mrs. Wan pursed her lips tightly.

Master Kuang's expression changed again: "What do you mean?"

"At that time, you had already married Mrs. Li, and even Mrs. Li was happy. You were worried that someone would come to our place to inquire and find out that you married my daughter. If you shouted out, the Li family would say that you were cheating on the marriage. At that time, your future would be in doubt. It’s all gone.”

Every time Mrs. Wan said something, Mr. Kuang's expression became ugly. By the time she finished speaking, Mr. Kuang had already said to Mrs. Wan: "Why bother, mother-in-law? With a son-in-law like me, mother-in-law will be envied by many people." , my future is gone, don’t talk about your daughter then, just talk about Suqiao, she will be just as miserable."

This is what Mr. Kuang wants to do to manipulate Wanjia. He only relies on Wanjia's love for his daughter, not anything else. Mrs. Wan smiled: "Yes, yes, you are used to saying such things."

"Mother-in-law, it has been many years since your daughter passed away now, and Suqiao has grown up and got married. As for me, I live a good life with Mr. Li, so don't take those old things to heart." While speaking, the housekeeper took the Walking in with those things, Mr. Kuang smiled and stretched out his hand

Hand: "Mother-in-law, these are my son-in-law's filial piety to you for so many years. Now, take these materials back and make some clothes to wear. This silver is what my son-in-law has filial piety for you. This person When you get old, you always have to have some money with you."

Lord Kuang's complacency made Wan Dequan very angry. He only stared at Lord Kuang closely. Lord Kuang saw Wan Dequan's anger, but did not take it to heart. In Lord Kuang's eyes, people like Wan Dequan were like Like ants.

The emperor's anger made rivers of blood flow. And what does the anger of ants mean? Mr. Kuang held those things in front of Mrs. Wan with both hands: "Mother-in-law, please accept them."

"In theory, I can naturally accept your filial piety." Mrs. Wan looked at Mr. Kuang and said, Mr. Kuang couldn't help but smile. Who doesn't like so many things?

"But when I think about it, this is my daughter's life. I can't wear the clothes made of this material." As she said this, Mrs. Wan pushed the things in Mr. Kuang's hand to the ground. .

"You!" Master Kuang was almost hit in the foot by the silver that fell on the ground, so he pointed angrily at Mrs. Wan, who had already stood up: "The mistreatment my daughter has received cannot be bought back with a few taels of silver. .”

Mr. Kuang's hand has been firmly clenched into a fist, and he just wants to punch Mrs. Wan in the face. Mrs. Wan's expression is calm. Since she wants to settle accounts, she is going to break up. If she breaks up, who will? Still caring about something else.

"I remember that when I married your sister, I had a very good relationship with you. Now, why don't you try to persuade the old man?" Mr. Kuang had no other choice but to look at

Wan Dequan's tone was very sincere, as if he was planning everything for the Wan family.

Wan Dequan then raised his head and said to Mr. Kuang: "Some things must be asked out of justice and conscience and cannot be smoothed away with money."

Hearing the words of justice and conscience, Mr. Kuang laughed sarcastically: "You are a yamen servant. Your father and your grandfather are all yamen servants. There is a saying that you yamen servants have a red mouth and a black heart. That is the same as you." It’s like the water and fire sticks you hold in your hands. At this moment, what are you telling me about justice and conscience? It’s a joke.”

"Is this really a joke?" Wan Dequan looked at Mr. Kuang, and Mr. Kuang sneered: "You are here today, and all you ask for is money. At this moment, it is only natural that you feel that the money is not enough, and you are not satisfied. Son, but I..."

"Shut up!" Mrs. Wan interrupted Mr. Kuang. Mr. Kuang looked back at her: "What, do you really want to seek justice for your daughter? Mrs. Wan, let me tell you the truth." With that, Mr. Kuang After a pause, Mrs. Wan and Wan Dequan knew that what he said would not be good, but they still listened.

Mr. Kuang sneered: "I am different now from before. I am an official of the imperial court. Even if you shout out and say that Su Qiao was already five years old when Wan died, it will not help."

"There is a censor..." Wan Dequan was interrupted by Mr. Kuang before he could finish his words: "Censor? Do you know that officials protect each other?"

Wan Dequan looked at Master Kuang, and Master Kuang continued coldly: "You should know who is Madam's uncle?"

Li's uncle was Master Kuang's mentor. He once served as the Imperial College's minister of wine. He was a civil and military official in the dynasty. How many people disrespected the Imperial College's minister of wine?

Although Li's uncle has retired, Mr. Kuang can still continue to serve in the court with a little help.

"You are just a few ants." Mr. Kuang said, reaching out to dust the non-existent dust on his sleeves. With a snap, Mr. Kuang received a slap on the face, and then Mrs. Wan said coldly: "Is it an ant? Is it a commoner? You can be considered a scholar. You have read your books into the belly of a dog. You don't know how to be loyal to the emperor and love the people." , only knows how to plot, at this moment, do you really think you can convince us?"

Mrs. Wan's slap came suddenly, and Master Kuang's expression turned ugly. Then he smiled: "Okay, okay, okay, you really have the courage. In that case, don't blame me for being cruel."

"Since we dare to come, we are naturally not afraid." Old Mrs. Wan still looked at Mr. Kuang: "Whatever tricks you have, use them all."

"Come here," now his face was completely broken. Master Kuang shouted loudly without caring about anything else. The housekeeper outside came in. Master Kuang pointed at Mrs. Wan and Wan Dequan: "Give them to me. Get out, my officer, I have no such relatives."

The crime of pretending to be an official relative was very serious. Mrs. Wan only sneered: "Okay, okay, all my white rice was fed to the dogs." How could Mr. Kuang accept such ridicule? He still sneered: "The little old man in the past The kindness has been repaid, and since you want to pretend to be official relatives today, please send them to the Yamen."

Send him to the Yamen. When he is in prison, he will talk to the Yamen officials and kill both Mrs. Wan and Wan De. In this case, no one will know what happened. Mr. Kuang’s eyes are cold

, Mrs. Wan and Wan Dequan acted as if nothing happened. Wan Dequan sighed softly: "You will regret it."
