The scumbag ran away from marriage, I remarried on the spot

In spring, the spring light is bright and spring scenes are everywhere.

In the back garden of the Hou Mansion, hundreds of flowers were blooming, birds were singing, flowers were fragrant, and colorful butterflies were flying. Meng Jinyao and his three sisters-in-law were admiring the flowers and talking about interesting things about the capital. They seemed to be getting along well with each other.

Seeing that Mrs. Chen's smile was particularly bright today, Mrs. Zhang was curious for a moment and asked, "Has something good happened to my second brother and sister? I see that your smile has never fallen off today."

Mrs. Chen replied: "This morning the Liu family sent someone to deliver a letter, saying that Xuan Ling is pregnant. Although she was not born by me, she has called me my mother for more than ten years and will be my grandmother. I am also happy about this. "

Meng Jinyao was surprised.

Mrs. Zhang was shocked after hearing this: "Xuan Ling is pregnant?"

Mrs. Chen nodded with a smile: "Xuan Ling was diagnosed as being more than two months pregnant yesterday because of physical discomfort. Xuan Ling is usually very careful, but she is careless about this kind of thing. Fortunately, nothing happened to the child."

Hearing this, Ms. Zhang thought of her daughter. She mentioned that her daughter got married in late August last year, and Xuan Ling got married in October. Xuan Ling is now more than two months pregnant, and her Xuan Yi has not yet had her baby She was anxious for Xuan Yi when there was any news. As she was still not pregnant, Xuan Yi would also be dissatisfied by her husband's family, especially Xuan Yi's mother-in-law, who was not an easy character to get along with.

Mrs. Zhang didn't want to be disappointed, so she had to suppress her worries and congratulate with a smile: "Congratulations to the second brother and sister."

Meng Jinyao also congratulated: "Congratulations to my second sister-in-law, I will have a grandson at the end of the year."

Ms. Chen smiled and said: "Xiu Hong is not married yet, so he doesn't know how long it will take to have a grandson. Let's get some psychological comfort first. Speaking of which, Xiu Yuan's wife is about to give birth, and my eldest sister-in-law is going to be a grandmother."

After hearing this, Mrs. Zhang felt better. Although she was not a grandmother, she was about to become one. Xiuhong, the second wife, did not even have a wife yet. However, her family Xiuyuan did not participate in the Spring Festival this year, but Xiuhong did. It is estimated that if she has a chance to win the Jinshi, she will have many more marriage options. In contrast, she is a little depressed. After more than ten years of fighting, It seems that Chen is superior in everything, whether it is her husband or her children.

In that room, Mrs. Gu also came out for a walk and saw the three daughters-in-law not far away, getting along quite harmoniously. She said to Aunt Feng: "After the third daughter-in-law came in, there was an open and secret fight between the eldest daughter-in-law and the second daughter-in-law. There seems to be a lot less, especially after Xuan Yi and Xuan Ling got married, and now the sisters-in-law can get along harmoniously."

Aunt Feng thought thoughtfully and replied: "This is probably because there is someone in the middle to mediate, so we can't quarrel when we are together. In addition, the attitude of you and Mr. Hou also determines Mrs. Hou's status, so they They all want to have a good relationship with Mrs. Hou and reach a certain balance point, so there will naturally be less struggle."

Mrs. Gu nodded, then smiled and said, "The third daughter-in-law is also a smart person."

In the past, she thought it was a pity that the third daughter-in-law declined to take charge of the middle division. As a clan wife, she should be in charge of the middle division. Later, she understood why the third daughter-in-law did this. Originally, the eldest daughter-in-law was in charge of the middle division, and the second daughter-in-law was in charge of the middle division. Assistant, this way the eldest daughter-in-law does not have to monopolize power, and the second daughter-in-law will not be dissatisfied. The two supervise each other, and no one dares to seek benefits for themselves, for fear of being caught and losing power.

But if the third daughter-in-law is in charge of the central government, she will naturally not need the eldest daughter-in-law and the second daughter-in-law to assist. This is actually not a big loss for the second daughter-in-law. The second daughter-in-law is a doctor in the Ministry of Etiquette, and the eldest daughter-in-law is just a nominal sinecure. This is invisible. , Dafang is in a weak position, and being in a weak position will cause an imbalance of mentality, and the struggle behind the scenes will naturally come.

Now the third daughter-in-law has directly delegated power, and she has gained a balance point. With a balanced mentality, she will not engage in small tricks, and she seems to be in harmony on the surface. Moreover, the identity of the third daughter-in-law is there, even if she doesn't give it to her, there is no one in the house. If you dare to neglect, it is equivalent to the third daughter-in-law opening a restaurant and hiring the eldest daughter-in-law and the second daughter-in-law to be stewards and work for her for free.

But a manager is a manager after all, and he can never outdo his boss. He can only live through hard work. The more capable the manager is, the less worry his boss will have. Obviously, the stewards are quite capable now. The boss doesn't have to worry at all. He can just be a hands-off shopkeeper, a wealthy and idle person, and watch the two stewards busy for him.

-

The three sisters-in-law spent the afternoon together and were about to go back to their respective courtyards.

At this time, a maid trotted over and reported: "Madam, the eldest girl is back and is looking for you in a hurry."

As soon as these words came out, the three sisters-in-law were stunned. Generally, a married girl would inform her in advance when she went to her parents' home to visit relatives. If she suddenly came back without saying hello, something must have happened.

Mrs. Zhang frowned and couldn't help but worry: "Why did Xuan Yi suddenly come back after she was fine?"

Meng Jinyao said warmly: "Sister-in-law, Xuan Yi is looking for you urgently, so there must be something going on. You go and take a look first."

Mrs. Zhang nodded and asked her maid Xuan Yi where she was now. She parted ways with her two sisters-in-law and immediately went to see her daughter. Her heart beat faster for no apparent reason, fearing that something would happen to her daughter or that she was at her husband's house. After suffering some great grievance, she ran back to her parents' home.

Meng Jinyao said to Mrs. Chen, "Second sister-in-law, I'm going back first, you can do it yourself."

Mrs. Chen nodded: "Okay, I'm going back too. The second master should be back at this time. Let's talk some other time."

In that room, Mrs. Zhang returned to her yard. As soon as she entered the house, she saw her daughter sitting alone in the house weeping silently. When she saw him coming in, her daughter choked and called "mother", looking as if she had been seriously injured. The grievance made her heart skip a beat.

Mrs. Zhang walked quickly to her daughter and asked with concern: "Xuan Yi, what happened?"

Gu Xuanyi threw herself into Mrs. Zhang's arms, sobbing loudly, tears streaming down her face, and without saying the reason, she choked and said, "Mom, I don't want to go back. I don't want to go back anymore."

Zhang's heart skipped a beat. She knew that her daughter was being bullied by her mother-in-law, squeezed by her sister-in-law, and that other people in Wu'anbo Mansion were not easy to get along with. However, her daughter had never said that she didn't want to go back, nor had she ever tried to run back to her parents' home in tears. , if you say this now, you must have been greatly wronged.

She hurriedly asked: "Xuan Yi, did my uncle treat you badly? Or did your mother-in-law go too far?"

Gu Xuanyi didn't reply, she just kept crying, her crying became louder and louder, and finally she let go of her throat and cried, as if she wanted to cry out all the grievances she had suffered these days.

Mrs. Zhang's heart was broken when she heard her daughter cry. She wiped her tears and coaxed her: "Xuan Yi, what happened? You tell your mother first, and then she can make the decision for you. Your father Although it is useless, there is still your third uncle. Wu Anbo's house does not dare to offend your third uncle. If their family goes too far, your third uncle will not let their family ruin the girls of our Gu family."

Hearing this, Gu Xuanyi slowly raised her head and looked at her mother with tears in her eyes. Her eyes suddenly became firm, as if she had made a great decision, and said: "Mom, they all bully me, and I don't want to live with him. I Make peace with him!"
