The Republic of China. A Dream of Mandarin Ducks and Butterflies

At noon the next day, Zai Kun, Du Zhen, and Zai Yu came to the mountain with a few patrolmen. After learning the truth, several men from Aixinjueluo's family sat together to discuss, and the money for pawning was from [-]%. When it reaches [-]%, it can be regarded as a big progress.

"It's up to you now, should you put them in a cell or do it privately?" Zai Kun asked Yanlin, the final decision must be made by others, and they only provide opinions.

The prince sitting on the kang replied: "I've been thinking about it for a long time, so let's forget it. After all, his old man has guarded the ancestral grave for us for so many years. There is hard work without credit." I have to sell this face, maybe my heart is too soft.

Pu Ying had expected him to say this a long time ago, so she could only sigh: "You still want to be a soldier, so soft-hearted, can you kill people on the battlefield?"

"You want to be a soldier?" Lord Belle asked suspiciously, why is this guy's mind always changing!

"Actually, I wanted to be a military officer from the beginning, but my mother-in-law was not in good health, and I was afraid that she would worry about me, so I stayed by her side to take care of me." He said, this was his childhood ideal, but he always failed to materialize.

Zai Yu followed to write news for the newspaper, he interjected: "As far as I know, no one in our family has served in the government army yet. If you really join the army, it will become big news again."

"I'm just talking, my mother won't agree." Yanlin lowered his head, confused about his future. Although there are several choices in front of him, none of them is his favorite. Joining the army is his dream. .

Seeing him looking like a defeated rooster, Pu Ying couldn't express the feeling in his heart. A good man has ambitions everywhere, and only worthless people guard their nests and dare not go out.

After lunch, Du Zhen (a former subordinate of Zai Kun, who now works in the government) came back from the county. The matter was settled. The county will send patrols to check the finances tomorrow. Get out the funerary objects, and then repair the grave and bury the ancestors again. All the expenses will be paid in advance by Zai Kun, and the old man Zhong will pay a considerable amount of compensation for his son who does not live up to expectations. But the unlucky second child had no choice but to go to jail because he couldn't pay the compensation, and the boss who had been a robber was wanted again, so he probably wouldn't dare to enter Beijing again in a short time.

Zai Yu then took a few photos, and after interviewing some villagers, he followed Kun Belle back to the city. On the way, the two chatted in Du Zhen's car.

"How's the matter with you and Fanglian?" Zai Kun asked him.

Zai Yu let out a long sigh: "I haven't seen her for several days, and I don't know how she is. I heard that she and the theater troupe took sick leave and are resting at home. I guess she is not sick, but Wu Hai refused to let her go." She's going out."

"Why don't I help you persuade Wu Hai? He just doesn't recognize your age and thinks you are too old for Fanglian. He doesn't think you are poor. Of course, this may be another reason." The pair of fateful mandarin ducks were worried about when they would be able to tie the knot.

Du Zhen, who was driving, interjected: "Master Yu, it's rare to see such an open-minded man like you, who can give all his house to his ex-wife. I really can't do it."

"Don't make fun of me. I just traded these houses for my wealth and freedom. In the years I lived with her, I never had a single day of happiness. Every time I tortured each other, I guess she had had enough." Zai Yu said , and now they are all free again.

"A good woman makes a man, but a bad woman doesn't." Du Zhen was actually talking about himself. He started a family late, the eldest just started middle school, and his wife ran away with others, leaving behind a son and a daughter. At that time, his situation was very bad. The Qing Dynasty was gone, and he, like others, began to sell things in his house without a source of income. In the end, he almost sold his house. Fortunately, a friend introduced him to work in the government. It is considered to be out of the predicament.

"Aren't you living a good life now? Don't worry about the past anymore, just treat it as a dream." Zai Kun and him used to be in the same boat, the only difference is that Kelso is not so unfeeling that he will never be together again. However, they still keep in touch with themselves, and they still love and take care of their two children. Their relationship has changed from a "husband and wife" to a partner. They do business together, and his share of the money will be given by Kyle. Suo helped make various investments, and he can get dividends every year.

"A woman who can accompany you during difficult times is worth cherishing for a lifetime!" Du Zhen said, and later he married a new wife, and the first thing he valued was no longer appearance, but character. Doesn't go out to do errands, but keeps the house in order and gets along well with the children.

Zai Yu couldn't help nodding frequently, Furong is the one who should be cherished the most!

When Zai Kun came home, Zhou Ping told him that there was a guest as soon as he entered the door. He came to the living room inexplicably, and saw Taifu Jinzheng and two men sitting relatively speechless. None of the three had a smile on their faces.

One of the men was in his forties and had two mustaches. When he saw Zai Kun coming in, he hurriedly saluted. Judging from the gesture of saluting, it should be full of people.

"Kun Beile, I am Ma Jiashi from Zhenghongqi, my name is Huanrong, and next to me is my younger brother Huande." This person introduced his family affairs with a smile on his face.

"Oh, hello, please sit down first." He had no connection with this family, why did they suddenly come to him today?

Tai Fujin on the opposite side finally said, "They're talking about spirits." Her good mood all day made the two of them get mixed up, and her chest hurt all the time.

Zai Kun sat in the host's seat, looked at the two guests, and probably had a plan in his mind.

Huanrong said politely: "Originally we came to see the prince, but he is busy at the ancestral grave, so we came here today to say hello."

The skinny and sallow Huande added: "Well, we actually have nothing else to do, we just want to get back our things."

"Your family?" Kun Belle frowned and asked back, hehe, this matter has spread to Bannermandui'er, fast enough.

Tai Fujin bit her lip, holding her breath in her heart, really wanted to scold them, but because of her status, she couldn't do it.

"Of course it belongs to our family. My aunt is the concubine Fujin of the previous prince. Shouldn't the things taken out of her old man's grave belong to our family?" Huanrong said confidently. Ling, I ran over to inquire immediately. If you really want to wake up, you must return all the belongings of your aunt.

Zai Kun lowered his eyes and didn't speak. After all, this is a matter of Yanlin's family, but Yanlin was present, and he couldn't let outsiders bully Taifujin, so he said politely: "Your aunt was from the Qing Dynasty. For those who have passed away, according to the rules, all things should belong to the husband's family, and how the husband's family handles the relics has nothing to do with the mother's family."

"It doesn't make sense for you to say that. When my aunt was buried, she brought a lot of dowry from her natal family. Shouldn't these be returned? What's more, it's the Republic of China now, so it's probably inappropriate to talk about the rules of the Qing Dynasty, right? "Huanrong said, but now they have to thank the Republic of China. If it was in the Qing Dynasty, they would have absolutely no reason to return their aunt's things. Married people are like poured water, and they are born from other people's family. , death is the ghost of others, and the relics will naturally return to the husband's family, but it is different in the Republic of China, everyone is equal, and the woman's things are eligible to be taken back by her mother's family.

Huan De quickly knocked on the gong: "Yes, even if we go to court, there is reason to say, but that will hurt each other's harmony."

It's not that Tai Fujin is reluctant to give them something, but she's afraid that once it's passed on to ten or ten to a hundred, a group of people will come to ask for it. She wants to leave as much property as possible for her sons and grandchildren. How can she let others snatch it away? What's more, these so-called relatives never had anyone to help them when they were in trouble. Is it necessary for her to show face and affection to them?

"Yanlin is not here, and you can't get any explanation today. Go back first. When he comes home, I will tell him that you have been here, and we will sit down and talk." Zai Kun saw through Tai Fujin's mind, and said Find a reason to send the two of them away quickly.

The two brothers looked at each other, and had no choice but to get up and leave. If it was impossible, they would go directly to the ancestral grave to stop the traffic jam of the prince. They didn't believe that there was no place to reason!

As soon as the guests left, Zai Kun said to the old lady: "Don't worry, it's really impossible, we can settle the matter even if we go to court, but that's not a good way, I'm afraid more people will come to divide things .”

She sighed helplessly: "That's what I'm afraid of, but we can't shut up people's mouths!"

"What you said is that there is no impenetrable wall." Zai Kun felt that Yanlin's family might be busy with a lawsuit in the future, and as a relative, he should help.

As soon as he finished speaking, his daughter Qingzhu came in with a stack of wedding invitations. She was busy preparing for the wedding recently, so she was not at home during the day and came back in the evening. Although her aunt was also helping with the work, she still felt that there was too much There are a lot of things to prepare, Tianci prepares the banquet, and she is responsible for purchasing all kinds of soft goods. The two selected the largest suite (inside and outside) in the backyard to make a new house. The workers are busy painting and renovating, and all the doors and windows are replaced. It's new.

"Ama, I would like to ask you to see if you need to invite other people." She handed the wedding invitation to her father, but did not greet the old lady. From the beginning to the end, she did not think that Tai Fujin was from her family.

Zai Kun said in a low voice, "Why didn't you say hello when you met Tai Fujin?" It's fortunate that Wu Tianci, a parent who died early, if there is really a mother-in-law or father-in-law's family, the daughter may be repaired by her in-laws in the future Woolen cloth.

"Hello Tai Fujin!" Qing Zhu reluctantly saluted hastily.

The old lady smiled indifferently: "It's okay, young people, you don't need to pay attention to old etiquette. On the day of the wedding, we will also come to help, and let our daughter get married in a good manner."

Qing Zhu just smiled perfunctorily, she didn't pay attention to Tai Fujin at all, she only hoped that the family could move away quickly, and stop being an eyesore.
