Flowers on the other side [Comprehensive Red House]

Mrs. Li's eyes were red with sadness.

I have lived for 60 years, and I have never seen a woman with such a heart.There are so many civil servants with concubines' children, but whoever is the concubine's mother is not on the face, so she has to put on a loving appearance.No matter how harshly you treat the concubine, you have to stick to this aspect, at most you just ignore it, don't care about it, let your aunt teach it-and put a loving name that you don't want to separate the mother and child.How can there be someone like her who takes the child over under the banner of treating her as her own, and blatantly abuses her.

"Wanrong, remember when I told you about the birth of a concubine, you told me that you first proposed to allow my aunt to have a child, right?"

Ji nodded.

"You also said that it's good to raise the child with the heir's son. How can you have a good relationship when you grow up with this kind of raising method?"

"Why not. My concubine grew up with my elder brother and has always listened to my elder brother. He also stands in front of my elder brother in war, and is much more loyal than a slave."

Comparing a bastard with a slave?

"Wanrong, the son of the concubine and your son are the same in Mr. Lin Ge's heart. They are both sons. You can't raise the concubine as a slave, and don't say such things again. Admit your mistakes to Mr. Lin Ge, and in the future Don’t worry, it’s the same as yours, at least on the surface. If you believe that your aunt is doing it for your own good, you should do what your aunt says. Do you believe it?”

"Auntie, concubines and concubines are born different. How can a son from a concubine match up with a son from a concubine?"

"Concubine and concubine are inherently different. You can only rest assured that you can't say it out, and you can't let others see it. Qingliu inherits different generals. In Qingliu's family, no one knows which child has the talent for reading. Which child will have a good luck in the exam. Many families, even the concubine, have a high official position and support the face of the whole family. Wan Rong, your aunt is usually well-behaved. She is a smart person, and the children she gave birth to I can't be stupid. Chen Guan'er's character, as you said earlier, is more like your natal family. Is he the seed of studying when he grows up, or can he only become a military officer? You have to plan for the future of the child. You can't do it for the concubine or the concubine. The difference, ruins the friendship between brothers. If it breaks the bond between husband and wife, it is even more worthless. Think about it, Mr. Lin joined the cabinet at this age. That woman in the capital does not envy you. Your good life is here In the future, it can't be ruined just because of a bastard."

Mrs. Li tried her best to break up the difference between Qingliu and military generals in terms of family tradition and inheritance, and told Ji that she didn't put so much effort and effort in teaching her daughter back then.After hearing this, Mrs. Ji pondered for a while.

"Auntie, it's against the rules for a concubine to be the same as a concubine. Lin Hai is a concubine, and if he treats me like this, he wants me to treat the concubine the same as the concubine," Ji shook her head, "I can't do that."

Mrs. Li felt that her painstaking efforts were in vain and started to get angry. This Mrs. Ji, who had loved her for ten years, did not listen to her words at all.She stood up tremblingly angrily, unable to hide her sadness, and shook her head as she spoke, "Wanrong, kind words are harsh to the ear and good for deeds. You should think about what I said carefully. If you want to live a good life, just do what the old man said. Otherwise , I’m afraid that your husband and wife relationship will come to an end. You can choose.” Mrs. Li emphasized her tone, “Because of my friendship with your mother when I was young, I have loved you for more than ten years. I just saw your mother again. I am also ashamed of my old friend. I am not guilty of my old age."

"Auntie, Auntie." Mrs. Ji wanted to stop the angry Mrs. Li.

Mrs. Li left Ji's room trembling all over.It was the servant girl who supported her and climbed into the carriage.She shook her hands and heart all the way back home.

When Mrs. Li returned home, she said to her husband, "My lord, it's a mistake to marry Wanrong to Lin Hai."

As Mrs. Li said, she shed tears in front of his wife, "We love her and pity her, but she can be cruel to such a young bastard. How can there be a little..."

Mrs. Li was astonished, and hurriedly advised his wife, "Don't be sad. The imperial doctor said, you can't be overjoyed and sad." The waiter was called to bring the pills quickly, and he took the medicine with his own hands.

"Don't worry, don't worry, just talk slowly, if there's anything wrong, I'll figure it out." The two have been married for more than 40 years, and the wife has always had kindness and compassion for everyone.I have been the head of the Hanlin Academy for more than ten years, why are there so many talented colleagues who are courteous to me? Isn't it because when my wife is in trouble, they all reach out to help.

"My lord," Mrs. Li repeated Ji's words to her husband without saying a word. "The sons of the concubine and the concubine are all sons. Lin Hai is over 40 years old, and the former lost his wife because of the loss of a son. Now every son is probably his heart. But that Wanrong is in the general's house. She grew up. She, unlike ours, raised the concubine as a slave. No matter how much I persuaded her, I couldn't persuade her, even if I persuaded her to be concerned about the relationship between husband and wife, she didn't move her."

"Ma'am, you are right. In a Qingliu family like ours, we teach children to be upright from an early age. Wanrong's heart is crooked from the root! She is 30 years old, and she is already a grandmother at this age. No You can persuade me with a sentence or two. Don't blame yourself. If you fall ill, what will you tell your sons to do? This marriage is because I thought about it, and I did it wrong. "

Mrs. Li heard his wife mentioning her son, and she didn't dare to think about Ji's sad things anymore.The imperial doctor said that I am very sad and happy, and it is very easy to have accidents.When the two sons are at the critical point of their official careers, the eldest grandson is about to get married. At this time, I can't afford to delay for three years!

Mrs. Li thought of the important point, she didn't need her wife to persuade her, she thought about it.Immediately talk about some chores with Mr. Li to divert your emotions.Mrs. Li comforted his good wife, and immediately sent someone to post a post in Lin's mansion, begging to see Mr. Lin Ge.

Mrs. Li's heart is like rolling in a frying pan.He regrets, regrets.Lin Hai is not a poor Jinshi who has just embarked on an official career.He absolutely shouldn't have exchanged Ji's marriage when Lin Hai was planning to go to Beijing.Lin Hai has been able to stand for many years in the position of inspector of salt and censor. When the tiger falls in Pingyang, he threatens others... He is about to retire, but what about his son and grandson?well!Why was I so confused in the first place?

Fortunately, the Ji family was upbeat and gave birth to two sons. For the sake of these two legitimate sons, Lin Hai should not care about his marriage with Ji's family even if he did not take care of his son and grandson in the future.When Ji's son grows up, Ji will repay his family's care.

can now.Mrs. Li has the heart to hit the wall.

Master Li thought all the way, worried all the way, and regretted all the way.Even if he doesn't help, he won't offend Lin Hai.After being smart all his life, why did he become an official and did such a stupid thing!He can't leave troubles for the two sons, alas, he is a lot of age, and he hasn't apologized to others for many years.

Lin Hai didn't take his anger out on the Li family and his wife, he immediately invited Mrs. Li to the study, and even served tea to the room teacher himself, so surprised that Mrs. Li didn't even know the taste of the tea.Seeing Mr. Li's uneasy look, Lin Hai thought he should speak clearly.Let someone pick Brother Mu and show Mrs. Li the back of the child's head.The scalp was still trembling to the touch, and there was still an unabsorbed hematoma.

Brother Mu is a good-natured child, with his father holding him, his head doesn't hurt so much, and Mr. Li pats his head, and he lets him do it too.When I asked him to pay New Year greetings, I stood unsteadily and cupped my hands, following my father's example: "Master, ancestor, auspicious, auspicious, ru, meaning." One word, one word, jumped out.

Mrs. Li untied the jade pendant from his body and gave it to Brother Mu. Lin Hai saw that the jade pendant was too expensive, so he hurried to stop him, "Teacher, it's too expensive, he can't afford it as a child."

"Ruhai, Brother Mu calls me Shizu. No matter how expensive it is, he can afford it from Master. Be good, Brother Mu, study hard when you grow up, and be like your father."

Seeing what Mr. Li said, Lin Hai couldn't stop him.Brother Mu nodded his thanks half-understood and made the old man laugh.Lin Hai ordered someone to take the jade pendant to Brother Mu and sent the child away.

"Teacher, look, such a young child can't even speak completely. It's been knocking for a month, and it hasn't recovered yet. This knocking is not the first time. Ever since the child was able to sit up, he was regarded as a child by the morning officials. Toys. To tell you the truth, what I’m most worried about right now is—this kid’s head was smashed.”

That's right, Mrs. Li looked at the child and felt uncomfortable.If it is broken and you cannot take the imperial examination, your life will be ruined.

Lin Hayden said sadly to Mrs. Li: "Teacher, if Mrs. Ji treats me half as husband and wife, she won't treat my son like this, don't you think so?"

Mrs. Li was so ashamed that he couldn't bear it. If this was his daughter, he could only take it home immediately.This is to point the nose and say that the Ji family is not unkind, not worthy of being a aunt, and has no conjugal affection for Lin Hai.But this Mr. Ji, his wife was over 20 years old when he took it over, and he usually sees it well, so how could he expect such a thing to happen.

"It's the old man's fault, it's all the old man's fault. I really don't know how the Ji family views the concubines in this way."

"Don't blame the teacher." Lin Hai was very clear about this matter.Mrs. Li proposed a marriage exchange, and he accepted.At that time, I wanted to jump out of the dead end and live a good life.Anyway, you have to marry whoever you marry, and you have to have a son.At the beginning, Ji's temperament was frank, and he liked it quite a lot when he opened up about things.At this time, both men and women get married first. Even if they cannot love each other, they can respect each other and abide by the rules, and cultivate a close family relationship.

Therefore, after he saw Ji's candid behavior style, what he gave to Ji was beyond the grace that any man in this era gave to the mistress.It's just that he didn't expect that Mrs. Ji didn't have the slightest affection for him, just like what he said to Mrs. Li - Mrs. Ji would not treat my son like this if he wanted to have half of the relationship between husband and wife to me.

Brother Mu had an accident, he didn't know how many times he blamed himself.It was he who believed in the Ji family as his own. He thought that the Ji family just wanted to raise Brother Mu and refused to recognize his biological aunt... He really didn't expect that the deep-rooted concept of concubine and concubine would be even more extreme in Ji's place. The age when the concubine was treated as a slave.Fortunately, she didn't say that the concubine could be raised as a house prostitute, otherwise he was afraid that he would be furious and couldn't help but break Ji's neck.

"She was born with the concept of concubine in a military officer's family. If I had told me earlier, I would not have to give birth to a concubine. Now I can only wait for me to find a good mother to teach and guide, and give the child to the mother to teach and guide I don't dare to hand over the child to Ji's upbringing, I'm afraid she will teach the child crookedly, and I won't be able to gain a foothold in Qingliu in the future."

Mrs. Li nodded.This kind of concubine concept, in the eyes of most men, is more terrifying and hateful than those jealous wives who do not allow concubines to be born.Few men can bear it. The son of a concubine is raised by his wife as a slave.Seeing that Lin Hai didn't ask him to take the Ji family back, he felt that he had saved his face, and said to Lin Hai apologetically:

"Ruhai, this old man is ashamed of you. This Ji family, from now on, I just think that this old man never raised her. Ashamed, ashamed!"

Lin Hai comforted Mr. Li well, reassuring him, gossiped about not being able to visit the New Year this year, and asked him some arrangements for his son and grandson.

Today's Mrs. Li, how dare he show the spectrum of the house master, and let the youngest cabinet minister, his immediate boss, go to him to pay New Year's greetings.He looked at Lin Hai in front of him. Compared with when he first returned to the capital, he was less gentle and more intractable.But this change just made up for his disadvantage of joining the cabinet at a young age. It only makes people feel that his jade-like gentle charm is more and more in line with the old demeanor of the cabinet.

It seemed that the unhappiness of the family affairs raised the man's heart.Lin Hai's attitude towards him was so sincere that he didn't seem to be lying in the slightest.If Lin Hai is consistent at home and abroad, with Lin Hai's strength, it's no wonder that he was able to join the cabinet.
