Concubine daughter of the Lin family in the Red Chamber

After a few days like this, when it entered November, the weather became colder and colder. Lin Wanru lay on the bed for a few days, and then became impatient. Chen Ruiwen couldn't help it, so he spent much less time going out, spending the same amount of time as Lin Wanru every day. Sleep, get up early at the same time, and go to greet Shen Shi together, which makes Shen Shi very happy.

Shi Aizhu and Liu Xuan successively sent Lin Wan the following posts, inviting her to appreciate the plum blossoms, but Chen Ruiwen refused, so Lin Wanru dragged Shen to file a complaint. Shen laughed and said to Chen Ruiwen: "These sisters go out together. Play, what else are you worried about?"

Ganoderma lucidum came in and sent a message: "My concubine called someone, saying that my uncle and concubine from Jiangxi have arrived, please come and see the young master and young mistress."

Shen Shi was a little surprised, and then smiled and said: "It's time to come, you go over after eating."

Chen Ruiwen and Lin Wanru agreed.

When they arrived at Lianhua Hutong, Aunt Shen had a sad face: "Your uncle called someone again just now and told you not to go there. It is estimated that the siblings found out about the marriage with Sister Man, and another accident happened."

Lin Wanru was stunned, and then realized that if the marriage was decided before the aunt came, there was nothing she could do even if the aunt objected. Now the horoscope is wrong, and the Geng post has not been changed. As long as Mrs. Jiang does not recognize the marriage, Even Jiang Dao couldn't marry Shen Man because of his filial piety. After all, the mother-in-law is the one who gets along with his daughter-in-law day and night. Mrs. Jiang's decision is more irrefutable than Jiang Wenming's.

At this time, Sixi Hutong was in chaos. Jiang Wenming and Jiang Dao looked at the woman behind Mrs. Jiang, Cheng Shi, dumbfounded.

She had long heard Jiang Wenming talking about marrying his cousin's daughter as his daughter-in-law. Although she sympathized with Shen Wuniang, who had a hard life, she was not very optimistic about this marriage.Secondly, she didn't know if he was engaged or not.

When Jiang Wenming came to Beijing, she was uneasy. It was not until Jiang Wenming wrote that Lin Wanru was engaged, so she felt relieved and quickly found a daughter-in-law she liked in Jiangxi.

Mrs. He is also the young lady of a wealthy family in Jiangxi. She is well educated and sensible. Mrs. He's mother and Mrs. Cheng are boudoir sisters. One fell in love with the talented Jiang Dao, and the other fell in love with the virtuous and virtuous Mrs. He, and they hit it off.This time Cheng followed up with a letter saying that he wanted to settle down in the capital, so he brought He along.

She looked at the handsome man and beautiful woman, her very well-matched son and He family.Smilingly, he said to Jiang Wenming: "We also grew up with Zhishu, the kid who knows the basics. Before I came this time, I just held a ceremony hastily for the sake of justice. Now that I come to the capital, I just happen to have a lot of fun. We can’t wrong these two children if we hold one.”

Jiang Wenming's face was livid, and he was speechless for a long time.

Jiang Dao's younger brother, Jiang Yuan, was only nine years old, leaning against Jiang Dao with a smile on his face: "Brother, have you met your aunt and cousin?"

Upon hearing this, Cheng said, "Yes. Didn't you say you met your cousin and niece? Why didn't you see them?"

Jiang Wenming didn't care about other things, and dragged Cheng into the room to talk.

Cheng was quite puzzled at first, but when he heard Jiang Wenming talk about Jiang Dao and Shen Man.Then he returned to his expressionless face: "Master, do you think I am Dao'er's mother?"

Jiang Wenming said sullenly, "Of course it is."

Cheng said again: "Can I be the master of that marriage?"

Jiang Wenming nodded again, and Cheng said, "That's it. The Shen family doesn't say they have any grudges with ours, but they have no grudges. Once they said that with their upper and lower lips touched, the master believed it? If it's true, it's fine." If it's fake, wouldn't Dao'er suffer for nothing? Besides, Dao'er saw Miss Shen on his bed with his own eyes? Since Dao'er didn't see it with his own eyes, why should he listen to what the Shen family said? Fortunately, the master is wise , I didn’t change Geng’s posts, I’ll come forward and argue with them when the time comes.”

Jiang Wenming didn't know his wife's temperament, so he had a headache: "How can people falsely accuse you?"

Cheng said: "This is not certain."

Cheng bit her to death and refused to agree, and brought her prospective daughter-in-law He Zhishu. If Shen Man was called in, how would He Zhishu gain a foothold?If it's a divorce, it's all agreed, but how can I explain it to the Shen family?

Jiang Wenming really had a headache. After much deliberation, there was nothing he could do. He went to see Mr. Wei. Mr. Wei just laughed when he heard this: "I didn't expect the Shen family to be here today. Your daughter-in-law is doing well and speaking well. Why should they say What is what? Two days ago, you went to ask for horoscopes. Didn’t the Shen family take Joe? It seems that God doesn’t want this marriage to be completed, so you just obey the destiny. The Shen family is self-inflicted, and they can do whatever they want , we can't control it."

Jiang Wenming looked at Junzi Wei and said, "Does the old lady still insist on asking you to go back?"

Mr. Wei refused to leave, he was not married, and he was not burdened by his family, so he didn't care about where he went, and Mrs. Wei couldn't be too reluctant, and now he was trying to open an academy for him to pass the time.

Anyway, there are a few disciples serving in the capital, and they can't suffer, so they bought Deng Yuan and Wen Lingfeng, and ordered them to watch over him, and don't allow Mr. Wei to mess around.

Chen Ruiwen and Lin Wanru waited until the afternoon in Lianhua Hutong for the letter to arrive. It was Aunt Shen who asked Madam Zheng to inquire about it. When Mama Zheng came back, her face was full of helplessness, and she said, "If you say that you are accepting your fate, Auntie and Auntie would never have thought of it. Who did the uncle and wife bring? The uncle and wife married the young cousin in Jiangxi, and now the daughter-in-law has brought her. It is said that the girl from the Shen family has lost her innocence, who knows what is going on, why should she rely on the young master Biao and want to withdraw from her marriage."

Aunt Shen didn't speak for a long time, Lin Wanru and Chen Ruiwen also looked at each other in blank dismay, thinking about the same thing in their hearts, if they had changed their relationship earlier and made an appointment, even if Cheng wanted to object, it would be too late to say anything now.

Self-inflicted, can't live, told Guan Shi to take Qiao, and refused to do it. Now she is on the high platform, down the ladder, and see how she ends up.

Chen Ruiwen and Lin Wanru didn't wait any longer, they went back after dinner, and when they went back, they told Shen Shi that Shen accidentally smashed a teacup and didn't speak for a long time. Come in and be a flat wife.

He Zhishu is married by the Ming media. The key is that the Cheng family also recognizes that she is the first wife without a doubt. Now that Shen Man wants to enter the door, he must not only ask Cheng's meaning, but also He Zhishu, the first wife's meaning. That's it.

After returning home, Chen Ruiwen said to Lin Wanru: "For the past two days, you are still lying on the bed and pretending to be sick, so you won't have to run around to get angry."

Lin Wanru said: "It's either me, or my aunt. There must be someone who will come forward. It's better to cut the mess quickly and solve this matter quickly."

After Chen Ruiwen thought about it, he was worried, so he took a few days off and went to Lianhua Hutong with Lin Wanru.

Aunt Shen sighed and said, "I just sent a message to the Shen family, but I haven't replied yet. Let's go to Sixi Hutong first, and talk about it when we come back."

The three of them went all the way to Sixi Hutong, but Mrs. Cheng came out to greet her in person, and when she saw Aunt Shen, she came forward with a smile and saluted: "According to the etiquette, I will call you cousin, and I should go to say hello to you. I just came here, and everyone is in a hurry, so I'm rude."

Aunt Shen also liked Cheng's coolness and said with a smile, "We're all a family, so what are you talking about?"

He also asked Lin Wanru and Chen Ruiwen to come forward to pay a visit. Cheng pulled Lin Wanru and praised her: "You look really good, like a golden boy and a jade girl, a match made in heaven. From now on, my cousin will enjoy her blessings."

Cheng's actions and words are pleasing, and Aunt Shen quickly became intimate with her.

When Jiang Wenming saw him, his sad face disappeared, and he talked to Chen Ruiwen with a smile, and Mrs. Cheng called Zhishu He: "Kowtow to your aunt."

He Zhishu is a beauty, with a melon-seeded face, willow-leaf eyebrows, and a generous demeanor, one can tell that he has been well-bred. Aunt Shen hurriedly asked Lin Wanru to help her up, saying: "What a beauty." She took off the bracelet on her hand and gave it to her It was a meeting ceremony.

He Zhishu and Lin Wanru bowed to each other again. Aunt Shen looked at He Zhishu and sighed secretly again. While talking, the servant came to announce: "The Shen family sent mother to deliver Geng Tie."

Jiang Wenming didn't speak, but Aunt Shen looked at Mrs. Cheng, who was still smiling and said, "Please come in."

Aunt Shen wanted to avoid, but Cheng said: "My cousin is not an outsider, so there is no need to avoid." Aunt Shen had to sit down.

The two mothers sent by the Shen family, Lin Wanru, have seen each other before. They are Nanny Guan and Nanny Liu. After the two saluted, Nanny Guan smiled and took out a red sticker: "Just in time for my wife to come. , it is safest to entrust Geng Tie to you."

Mrs. Cheng served tea leisurely: "What Geng Tie?"

Nunnery Guan's face froze, she forced a smile and said, "It's a post from our young lady."

Cheng smiled and said, "How old is your young lady?"

Sister Guan said, "Sixteen."

Cheng was surprised and said: "They are all sixteen, but our family's Yuan'er is only nine years old, this is not a good match."

Nanny Guan couldn't help being embarrassed: "It's your eldest son, the young master of the Jiang family."

Cheng sneered: "Our young master is married, what do you mean, does your girl want to marry in as a concubine?"

Mother Guan's face was ashen, she didn't speak, she looked at Jiang Wenming, Cheng stood up, and said, "Don't look at the master, that's what I mean, I've heard about your girl, but since you want to To get married, I want you to love me, and now you are in a hurry to send the girl here. It is not an option. Originally, it is not easy for the elders to ask about such a matter. Now that I am here, I have to talk about it, really. It’s not easy to say if it’s fake or not, you should go back first.”

Nanny Guan's face turned from blue to white, and it took a long time before she said, "Master Jiang personally agreed to this, and he came to ask for Geng Tie two days ago."

Cheng said with a smile: "It's just buying things, and you can return it when you buy it. What's more, it's just a verbal agreement. You also said that our master came to ask for a Geng Tie, but your family didn't give it. It can't be said that our master kept his word. Believe it, now we are not willing to hold it, so let’s give up on this marriage, you go back and tell your wife, even if you are a concubine, I will not allow anyone to enter the house."
