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

After the prince left, Huanrong's fat daughter-in-law, Mrs. Cao, gained power, and took this opportunity to launch a "violent attack" on her husband, as if she wanted to vent all the grievances of the past ten years through today.

"Don't you feel sorry for your sister-in-law? If you feel sorry for her, you just fished her out of the kiln. Why is the hero short of breath now?" Mrs. Cao taunted while eating melon seeds while sitting on the kang.She had known for a long time that her man was interested in her sister-in-law Ruifeng (Wanyan family), but the sister-in-law obviously turned a blind eye to it. Now the situation is different. That useless younger brother has become a dead ghost. If Ruifeng is taken in by the family, it will definitely be a disaster in the future .

Huanrong sat on the chair, frowned and said, "Didn't you hear what I said, I said I can't do it."

"Hmph, maybe you are as kind as the prince pulling the cart? Don't even think about your own situation, what are you looking for?" She glanced at Huanrong. If it wasn't for the money, her man might be I really want to get my sister-in-law out.

"The prince wants to take care of it, so let him take care of it. I don't want to get involved." He said insincerely, but he was really sorry, but he had to support his family, so there was nothing he could do!

"Hmph!" She didn't say a word and continued to eat melon seeds. It is estimated that whoever can fish out her sister-in-law will become a new man.

Three days later in the morning, Zai Kun drove Yanlin and Cuilan to Tianjin.

Cuilanto's former friends inquired about Rui Feng's whereabouts, and Zai Kun helped his brother Xiao Qian out of it. The Yaozi finally agreed to let him go first.

When the three of them came to an alley near Nanshi, they saw a big house with a lot of guests. There was an old bustard standing at the door. When they saw the three coming, they immediately greeted them with smiles, but most of the guests were there. It's ordinary people, and the real rich don't bother to come here.

"I'm standing here waiting, and the three of you are here." After speaking, the old bustard welcomed the three of them into the door, but her heart was agitated, because she had already coerced Rui Feng to take several guests. .

The three of them came to a small room in the backyard, and saw Rui Feng with a haggard complexion. This was a woman under 25 and six years old. Because of the bad life in the past few years, her body was thin, but she could still see that there was something wrong with her. Somewhat pretty, the most touching thing is the big eyes, melancholy and with a little tear.Rui Feng was wearing a blue cheongsam with no makeup on her face, which didn't match a place like a kiln at all.

"Rui Feng, the prince and Lord Belle are here, you can go with them." The old bustard said with a smile.

The woman sitting on the chair was startled, and quickly stood up and knelt down: "Thank you, my lord, Lord Baylor for saving my life. In the next life, I will repay the kindness of both of you."

After hearing this, Cuilan stepped forward to help her up: "Don't say such heavy words, there will be a long time to come, and the two of them will help you."

Rui Feng could only shed tears, she hurriedly said: "Originally, I planned to accept my fate, but after Mr. Xiao came, he told me what you two wanted to help me. I think it is a blessing from my previous life. , to be able to receive such a great favor."

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, Lord Belle took them back into the car and drove back to Beijing. In the car, the two men finally had a serious talk with this weak woman.

"Rui Feng, although your husband is gone, you are still Ma Jia's daughter-in-law. If you take out the things from your aunt's grave, you also have a share. Your husband's should be inherited by you. You can definitely go to a lawyer to file a lawsuit for this." I won." Zai Kun said while driving, through the rearview mirror, he saw that this woman seemed to have no interest in the money, and just bowed her head in silence.

After a long time, Rui Feng said: "I can't take the prince's money, it's not our family's property."

"It's not the Qing Dynasty now, you have the right to take it back, I mean, use this part of the money to repay the usury owed by your husband, and we will help you find a solution for the rest." Yan Lin sat in the passenger seat As he spoke, he knew that the money might only be enough to pay back half of it, and he planned to help Rui Feng pay the rest first.

Rui Feng felt like she was sitting on pins and needles, she didn't know how to respond, there really are such good people as Lord Baylor and Lord Wang in the world, when the Qing Dynasty was gone, and their bannermen lost their salaries, she felt that the sky was falling, the slaves who used to bow and bow Immediately changed his face, and no one fawned on him anymore.

Cuilan saw what she was thinking, and said in a low voice: "If you go back to the Qing Dynasty, you are not from the Eight Banners, and the prince and Lord Belle are no longer outsiders. You have to plan for the future, and plan for your children." Cuilan actually envied Rui Feng very much. Although she had a hard life, she finally had two children, and she, who was a little older, was still alone.

"Well, even though the Republic of China is now in place, we Bannermen still have to help each other." Zai Kun said, he has always done this, and his cousin is one of the objects he "helps".

Rui Feng couldn't help raising her eyes to peek at the man driving the car. I heard that Baylor is over 40, but he still looks quite young. Back then, her mother-in-law was also a "supporter" of Baylor, and she always talked about Kun Baylor. Well, not only has a strong body and handsome appearance, but also has an extraordinary mind, and more importantly, is upright and has a gentleman's demeanor.

At about three o'clock in the afternoon, they returned to Beijing. After sending Cuilan to Dongjiaomin Lane, Zai Kun and Yan Lin took Rui Feng back to the house.

After all, Tai Fujin came here, and Qiaoping helped her find a few clothes before letting Rui Feng take a bath. Several family members sat in the living room to discuss how to help Rui Feng tide over the difficulties.

"Their family's house and belongings were all taken to pay off their debts, and they have nowhere else to go. Judging by Huanrong's appearance, they will definitely not take her in." Yanlin sighed, Rui Feng is really a hard-working woman.

The son-in-law Wu Tianci who was sitting on the side suddenly said: "Father-in-law, can you see if this works? Our cloth shop is still short of a man. Let my sister-in-law come to help, sell cloth, and settle accounts. Although we don't pay much, he can Live in a shop and have a small room to settle in."

Da Gege, who was sitting by the side, didn't make a sound. Since her husband said it, she probably agreed.

"Well, I think it's okay. There are two rooms behind your shop, enough for the three of them to live in." Zai Kun thinks it's feasible. It's not that the daughter has no vision, but she is quite picky.

"I will help to pay the other debts first. The antique dealer introduced by my cousin has already seen the things, and will bring the money over in a few days." Yan Lin breathed a sigh of relief, and finally he was able to pay back the money to his cousin. He followed Pu Ying's advice, and all other money was exchanged for gold bars and deposited in foreign banks.

Tai Fujin reluctantly agreed with her son's approach, and interjected: "It's only natural for Manchus to help each other." But she was afraid that Huanrong would not agree to give half of the money to Ruifeng, and they would have to pay more. Double the money was returned to the usury.But it is impossible to take back what has been said, not to mention that their family should have an aristocratic demeanor, and they must say what they say.

"Pay back the money slowly, and you can always pay it back." How shrewd Wu Tianci is, he naturally sees Tai Fujin's worries, and he will also discuss with Rui Feng that half of his monthly salary will be directly withheld and returned to Tai Fujin.

Yan Lin, who was so punting in the prime minister's belly, smiled open-mindedly: "Please consider it as a matter of settlement. Let's cook a table of good food tonight and drink a few more glasses." At dinner, Puying should be back. The other party was busy doing things the other day, and the two of them just exchanged a few words in a hurry when they met. He planned to invite Pu Ying out for a drink tomorrow and Sunday, avoiding his complaining wife and nagging mother.

A few adults were talking in the living room with the door open, and Binzhuo and Binqing outside the door had a fight in the yard, playing with the hoop noisily.

Qiaoping was busy in the steamed stuffed bun shop greeting the voices, and didn't bother to discipline the two children, so they had a great time these days!

"Stop making trouble, go play in the backyard, adults are talking." Qing Zhu, who didn't rub the sand in his eyes, stood up and waved to the two children, frowning and staring, scaring them into running away.

Then Wu Tianci said with a smile: "Children are all playful, it's okay." He didn't think there was anything wrong with his wife's straightforward personality, but the speech still depends on the occasion. You have to restrain yourself, but Qing Zhu obviously doesn't care, probably because he was spoiled by his father-in-law since he was a child.
