old grace

He Jing's mother, Mrs. Xuan, was born in the government's family, Yuxia has a set of rules in running the family, and the members of the He family don't like to gossip.

Jiang Erniang couldn't hold back the resentment in her heart.From what she thought, the Zhao family was powerful, and Miss Zhao had the Hou Mansion as her backing, so there was absolutely no way for her younger sister to avenge her blindness and bullying.In this year, no matter whether it is a lady of the big family or a jadeite of a small family, everyone pays attention to a good reputation.

Jiang Erniang's way of revenge is to tarnish Ms. Zhao's reputation.

She told the outside world about Miss Zhao's cruelty, which family's rich and precious young lady would hurt people's eyes with her own hands?If you see a chicken being killed, you will faint.She also said that because of her cruel temper, she annoyed her fiancé, and her fiancé, who had been engaged for many years, had already broken off the engagement!

It was said earlier that Ms. Zhao stabbed the maid in the eyes with scissors, and the neighbors reacted differently when they heard it.Some people sympathized with Jiang Youniang, while others thought it was normal.A servant girl is the belongings of the master's house. When your master is angry, doesn't he have to smash a cup or a bowl?She is the daughter of the official family, so what's wrong with punishing a maid?

It wasn't until Jiang Erniang said that Ms. Zhao was divorced by the prince of the Hou family because of blindness, that public opinion changed drastically.

Even the eldest son of the Hou Mansion felt that Miss Zhao had a bad temper and could not be hired as a wife, so this Miss Zhao must have really bad temper, and even the Hou Mansion couldn't tolerate her.Engaged for so many years, suddenly the engagement was broken off, tsk tsk, how can I marry in the future?Who dares to marry this poisonous woman?

There are also neighbors who come to compliment Jiang Erniang. Your family is also related to the son of the Hou family?The son of the Hou family values ​​your sister so much?

The three aunts and the six wives came and walked, joking and entertaining inside and outside, and even more probing, is your sister a beautiful woman?Maybe it's his compensation to ask the prince of the Hou Mansion to accept him as a young man. Who told his fiancée to do evil!

Jiang Erniang knew that taking a concubine was useless.Man said that Shizi Yuan didn't mean that, I'm afraid that the arrogant little girl would not like it.

However, this did not delay her from being proud of it.

It turned out that Shi'an resigned from her marriage with Ms. Zhao because of Jiang Youniang's blindness, which made her feel a vague sense of revenge.

——If it wasn't Jiang Youniang who was bullied by the Zhao family, how would Yuan Shi'an know her true face?She can still marry Yuan Shi'an in a glorious manner, and become the wife of the eldest son of Qianxihou's Mansion.Just because she was bullying Jiang Youniang, Yuan Shi'an not only knew about it and attached great importance to it, but because of his relationship with his younger brother, it was impossible to marry that poisonous woman.

This gave Jiang Erniang a sense of revenge.Tell you to bully my sister!You bullied the wrong person to end up like this!

I lived next door to Huichun Hall for half a month. Jiang Erniang was busy taking care of her sister and had no time to go out to socialize. Later, Xie Qinghe took care of the problems of Qianxihou's Mansion and Jiao's family, and took care of Jiang Youniang at home every day. After a few days, Jiang Youniang recovered quite well, and Jiang Erniang had the leisure to visit everywhere, and when she went to Huichuntang to get medicinal materials, she stopped by and talked badly about Miss Zhao.

Now all the neighbors in the neighborhood know about the grievances between her family and the Zhao family.

Xie Qinghe said the day before yesterday that he wanted to eat charcoal barbecue, and Jiang Erniang went out with a basket to buy pepper while the sun was rising and the heat was still hot.

Pepper is an extremely precious condiment these days. Erniang Jiang doesn’t want to take advantage of He’s family if she doesn’t lack money. Her younger brother wants to eat charcoal barbecue, so she goes out to buy it by herself, lest Mrs. Yan has to go back to He’s house to get a sign to get it. .

Before she reached the spice shop selling pepper, she heard a neighbor who knew her mysteriously say to her: "Amitabha, it can be seen that good and evil are rewarded. I'm afraid the second lady doesn't know? The Zhao family lady in the east of the city?" My dear father said that his eyes were broken and he could no longer be an official, so he resigned and went home in despair."

Jiang Erniang opened her eyes wide and asked in disbelief, "What else is there?!"

The Zhao family is not alone in being an official. Ms. Zhao's father resigned from office, her grandfather and uncle are still in office, and her natal family has titles, so the people on the street dare not discuss it.This idle neighbor babbled along with Jiang Erniang all the way, and his voice was very low: "I heard that my eyes were bad a few days ago. I asked a doctor to treat it, but no one could cure it. Hey, tell me, why is this blind man so stupid?" Official?...It was said that he was on leave to recuperate at home, and there is no reason for an official in the court to be dismissed for no reason. In the past two days, I heard that Zhao Yuanwai wrote a letter to resign."

Jiang Erniang was so happy that she went to the spice shop to buy pepper, but when she came out, she found that the neighbor's vegetable basket was still empty. She deliberately went to the pork shop, bought a few catties of pork, and gave half a catty to the neighbor: "Auntie, take it back. Give the kids a taste at home."

The neighbors were happy, and asked the butcher to spare a piece of blood tofu, and then went home happily.

Jiang Erniang was also very happy, walking with wind.Carrying the basket back home, she first put the pepper in the kitchen and put it away. She told the cook's sister-in-law Song to be careful not to touch it. At noon, she cooked charcoal barbecue for the young master. She washed her hands and went back to the house to deliver the good news to Jiang Youniang.

"Her father's eyes are blind, and the official is also lost, so it's a sigh of relief!" Jiang Erniang said happily.

Jiang Youniang asked suspiciously: "Is this news accurate? Why did her father suddenly go blind? How can there be such a coincidence?"

"Most of the rumors are true. How prominent is her Zhao family? It's a big deal for us ordinary people, and it's not enough to put it in the capital. Others want to arrange discussions, why don't they talk about Princess Yuqing's mansion? Why? Don’t talk about Prince Liang’s mansion? What’s the benefit of making her the mansion of a fifth-rank official named Wailang?” Jiang Erniang poured her sister a cup of herbal tea, “Have you not drunk it today? There’s still such a big pot left, drink it soon. "

What Jiang Youniang wanted to say, Jiang Erniang raised her index finger and booed again: "It's good that we both know, but we dare not go to my younger brother to tell. Every time I talk about the Zhao family, he is not happy - thanks to him being the younger brother." , I'm my elder sister, if I lose my height, he will scold me."

Jiang Youniang drank the herbal tea made by her younger brother, her tone became very gentle: "He thinks he is a man and always wants to protect his sister. He can't do anything about this. No wonder he sounds heartbroken. In fact, he brought people He rescued me, took care of me so carefully, and healed my injuries. I thought he was the best brother in the world. We are all sluts who grew up in the mud. Where can we talk to officials and nobles? Anger?"

Jiang Erniang snorted, and then sighed: "That's the truth. The son of the Hou's mansion, the young master of the official family, said that he has something to do with our family. What kind of serious relationship is that? Call our brother today, sir, and tomorrow I won't know." Who is who? If our younger brother is motivated, he gets a name in the exam, and finds an official position..."

Jiang Youniang couldn't help smiling, and said, "Second Sister, my younger brother said that he didn't want to end up, but he would spend his whole life idle and wild. Don't force him."

"I don't understand either. Maybe writing and drawing is different from writing essays? Our younger brother is good at writing and drawing, Mr. Zhuang praises him, but he just refuses to take the exam. I think he may," Jiang Erniang said. Shaking his head quietly, "No way. Forget it, let's not talk about it."

Xie Qinghe stood at the door for a long time, and waited for the two of them to chat for a while before coming in with a tray: "Third sister, the medicine has been changed."

Jiang Erniang peeked at his face and saw that he looked normal, probably because he didn't hear the two sisters chatting, so she turned her back and stuck out her tongue at Jiang Youniang.

Jiang Youniang got up and untied the bandage wrapped around her head, and said, "I feel much better these two days, but there is always something wet in the eye socket, and it's not blood."

Xie Qinghe explained: "The wound has grown. The weather is hot now, and the wet things my sister touches are sweat."

He turned around and sent Jiang Erniang away: "Second Sister, Mrs. Yan said that the He family has brought pumpkins."

Jiang Erniang got up immediately and said, "I'll wash it and cut it into two pieces."

Xie Qinghe checked Jiang Youniang's eyes, wiped them with potion, and said, "There really are no such coincidences in this world."

Jiang Youniang raised her head in surprise and looked at Xie Qinghe's face.

Xie Qinghe wrapped her wound up gently with both hands, and said: "A man should live in the world, one is self-cultivation, and the other is family. I am unmarried, and my third sister has never been married. It is my responsibility to protect the female family members. I should not have revealed this at will. I told the third sister today to let the third sister feel at ease. From now on, I will protect the third sister. Even if I can't do it," he looked at Jiang Youniang's only remaining eye, "let the third sister suffer from injustice. I will also avenge my third sister."

"Third sister, don't be afraid. We don't cause trouble, and we are absolutely not afraid of trouble. As long as we stand firm and do nothing wrong, we are not afraid of anything." Xie Qinghe's voice was soft and stable.

Jiang Youniang stayed there for a long time, then suddenly grabbed Xie Qinghe's arm, and she shed tears from her remaining eyes.

Born in a common people's family, no one can be counted as a human being, especially a daughter who will marry sooner or later. Parents and brothers only regard it as property. It is heartbreaking to lose it, but who would challenge the rich and powerful for the money that has been lost?As a result, many women who have been bullied are complained by their parents and brothers at home-why are you causing trouble?People don't bully others, why should they bully you?It must be your own problem.

In the final analysis, if he didn't avenge his daughter, he would look like a coward and lose face.To avenge her daughter, but really dare not sacrifice and pay any price.

At this time, if the other party is willing to give some money, the victim's family will immediately accept it, and even kowtow repeatedly to thank the host for their kindness.Who cares what the real wronged victim thinks?

Xie Qinghe's guarantee is firm and firm, either protection or revenge, there is no third way.It is impossible to let you be wronged.

Jiang Youniang herself also felt that she shouldn't cause trouble. For her worthless daughter, if she harmed the only seedling in the family, the only son, wouldn't the gain outweigh the loss?Just because she thought so, she couldn't help crying.

She felt that she was worthless and not worth letting her brother sacrifice desperately.My brother didn't think so.

The younger brother said, don't be afraid, I will protect you.If I can't protect you, I will avenge you.It is my responsibility.

How can there be such a responsibility?The whole world has never heard of such a responsibility.Women have always had a reputation for self-harm and preservation. How often have you seen your husband suffer disasters in order to protect the women in the family?This is not the point of tarnishing the reputation, it is just blinding one eye!

Jiang Youniang cried convulsively, and desperately patted Xie Qinghe's arm with one hand, crying: "Why are you like this!"

Xie Qinghe frowned and said: "Why are you like this? I love you, why are you hitting me?"

Made Jiang Youniang dumbfounded, she blew her nose with a handkerchief, and sobbed: "I...I love you too. You are the only seedling in our family, you have to cherish yourself. I don't ask how you did it, this matter But I can’t say any more. If the Zhao family finds out, our family will never have peace.”

Xie Qinghe brought her herbal tea and put it in front of her, looking at her runny nose with disgust: "Second sister is here, let her fetch water to wash your face. Call her if you have something to do."

Jiang Youniang couldn't help asking: "Then when shall we go back?"

Knowing that Zhao Yuanwailang's eyes were written by her younger brother, Jiang Youniang felt guilty and just wanted to escape from the capital as soon as possible.

"Four or five more days." Xie Qinghe replied.

He has seen Jiang Youniang's injuries, and she is ready to go on the road.

Jiang Youniang is not a Miss Jiao raised in a deep boudoir, she is in good health, and taking a boat is not a burden for her, but a rest.

Xie Qinghe didn't intend to bother He Jing with everything, the imperial court did not allow officials to engage in business, and He Jing's family had cars and horses, but they didn't necessarily have boats.Even though the He family has a boat, it would cost a lot to make a special trip, and if you want to borrow a boat from a relative's house, you have to go all the way.It's better to spend money and walk with the merchant directly, and the money and the goods will be settled, so as to save the entertainment on the way.

Jiang Erniang followed Xie Qinghe for a trip, and she already had experience. She knew that if she wanted to live comfortably on the road, she had to bring more luggage.

When eating at noon, Xie Qinghe told the news that he would be leaving in the next few days, and Jiang Erniang began to pack and buy.

Jiang Erniang's affairs were in a hurry, and the servants of the He family who were serving at home knew immediately that they were leaving. Madam Yan was hesitating whether to report to the He family, Xie Qinghe called He Qi and Madam Yan to the main room, and said: Mengxian and his wife took care of her, and now that the third sister is recovering from her injuries, I am going home. This is a gift I prepared for everyone, and I ask the two housekeepers to help distribute it."

Xie Qinghe pointed to the red seal on the plate.

If he said it was a reward for He Qi and Mrs. Yan, they would definitely refuse to accept it. If he said it was a reward for others, He Qi and Mrs. Yan would not be generous enough to help push it.I have to say a few polite words, thank you again and again.

Xie Qinghe gave He Qi another letter, saying: "This is my letter to Mr. He, please pass it on to him."

He Qi quickly put away the letter.

The couple came down with trays containing red envelopes. He Qi was about to deliver a letter to He's family. Mrs. Yan could also read a few words, and said, "These eight thinner red envelopes are all the same, and the ten taels of silver are the same." ticket. There is also a thicker one with your name written on it."

He Qi leaned over and saw that Mrs. Yan had already opened the red envelope, which contained 50 taels of silver notes and a copybook.

Sister-in-law Yan was very pleasantly surprised: "Oh! Copybook!"

The son of He Qi and Mrs. Yan had just turned five years old, and it was the time when Mrs. Yan was studying with the young master. When Mrs. Yan mentioned her son to Jiang Erniang, she was also full of pride. Xie Qinghe heard it and kept it in her heart. When she parted, Xie Qinghe is also penniless at the moment, and has nothing to reward him from before, so he personally wrote a copybook as a gift.

He Qi served in He Qiming's study when he was a child, and knew that things were precious, so he asked Mrs. Yan to wrap the copybooks in flannelette, and said, "It just so happens that I go back to deliver the letter, and ask the young master what to do with it."

Mrs. Yan was a little bit reluctant, and muttered: "This is what Mr. Jiang gave us..."

He Qi couldn't help laughing: "Silly woman, our whole family is the master's and the young master's servants, and even Pi Er is the young master's servant, so how can we have anything for ourselves?"

Sister-in-law Yan had no choice but to straighten his clothes, "Go early and come back early. We'll have stewed pork noodles tonight."

He Qi hurried back to He's house, and smoothly met He Jing who was resting in the gazebo to cool off.

Across a screen, He Jing was playing Luban lock with his son He Zhuan, while his wife, Mi Shi, was sitting on the side peeling melon seeds. The whole family sat around, blowing the cool breeze from the pond to cool off the heat, enjoying themselves happily.

Hearing that Xie Qinghe had delivered the letter, He Jing hurriedly asked the maid to pick it up. While opening the letter, he listened to He Qi's reply outside: "Mr. It's not easy to refuse the small ones for the people below..."

He Jing smiled and said: "Mr. is a decent person. You are rewarded for your good service. Accept it. I will also reward you when you come back."

He Qi said again: "After receiving the reward seal, the young lady found out that there was also a young couple in it. It was a thick stack, and I was shocked when I held it, I thought it was a stack of bank notes... "

Mi Shi who was on the side couldn't help but chuckled: "It's not a bank note? What is that?"

"Returning to Madam, the young lady opened the red seal with a knife, only to find out that it was a copybook." He Qi took out the copybook wrapped in flannelette from his bosom, "The young one will ask the mother-in-law to wrap it up immediately. Sent it to the young master."

Mrs. Mi was confused when she heard this, and asked strangely: "Why did he give you a copybook? Could it be that he thinks your handwriting is poor?"

He Jing was convinced by her, she didn't answer her words, and said: "Since it was given to you by my husband, you can keep it. Pi'er is young, I'm afraid he is not sensible, you have to put away his things for him." I'll tell Mr. Lin to teach Pi Er how to write - you don't mind letting Zhuan Er follow suit, do you?"

He Qi said hastily: "Even Pi'er belongs to the young master, let alone this copybook? It should be placed in the study and be disposed of by Mr. Lin."

He Jing had already read Xie Qinghe's letter, and said, "Wait a minute, I want to write back to my husband."

He Qi was holding the copybook in his hand, he didn't put it away, he didn't put it away, he was a bit embarrassed.

A servant has already brought the desk, ready the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and the book boy is studying the ink.

He Jing came out from behind the screen, picked up the copybook in He Qi's hand, flipped through it for a while, and said, "This is a copybook for children to learn about calligraphy and ink. I’ll exchange it with you for the land money—how dare I take what the master gave Pi’er? Anyway, Pi’er and Zhuan’er are learning characters together, so it’s not necessary to distinguish them so clearly.”

He Qi himself is a book boy who grew up with He Qiming's study, how could he not know the truth?

Whether the copybook belonged to Pi Er or was taken away by the young master He Zhuan, these are two completely different things.

The young master's reading is serious reading, and the book boy is a foil to serve the young master after busy work. Only children who are self-motivated and know what is good and bad will study hard while serving, but how many children are not playful?If the young master can't learn well, the master will beat him with a ruler.No one cares about what the book boy learns, and he will be punished if he is not well served.

He Jing said, the copybook belongs to Pi Er and cannot be snatched.In the future, ask Pi'er to study with He Zhuan, so there is no need to make a clear distinction.

——This is to let Pi Er study with the young master, not simply being a book boy.

He Qi is very grateful, but still excuses that he is afraid of not being able to preserve the copybook, and asks He Jing to pass it on to Mr. Lin for preservation.

He Jing just put away the copybook, went back and wrote a reply letter to Xie Qinghe, and asked Ronghua to get the private money of 1000 taels of silver, put it in an envelope together with the letter paper, and said to He Qi: "The letter is in Mr.'s hands. Please understand." Report the sailing schedule in advance, and I'm going to see you off."

After He Qi left, Mrs. Mi asked her servants to take her son away, and couldn't help complaining to He Jing: "My husband's behavior is becoming more and more incomprehensible. Even if He Qi is the father-in-law's confidant, is his son better than us?" Zhuan’er is precious? It’s just a copybook, but Zhuan’er is asked to learn from him—the ancestors of the He family had a number one scholar, and my uncle was also a Tanhua Lang during the Xihe period. , where is there a copybook missing?"

He Jing said angrily: "Uncle is Tanhua Lang, so my father-in-law didn't watch you learn two more strokes? You can't tell if this copybook is good or bad, and you have the nerve to boast that you are from a noble family! Ouch, you It’s okay if you don’t speak, but I get a headache when I speak!”

Mi Shi was so angry that she leaned close to his ear and kept babbling: "I'll just say, just say, it hurts you to death!"

He Jing leaned on the couch like a dead dog: "Mi Zhimei, if you weren't good-looking and gave birth to me a big fat son, you bullied me like this... I, I would have taken a concubine a long time ago. This The place can't wait anymore, I'm going to Jiangnan."

Mi said with a sneer, "It's a pity that the old man won't let you go."

He Jing sat up suddenly, and looked at her blankly: "I hear what you mean, do you wish for me to leave?"

Mi showed a surprised expression, and quickly denied: "Husband, you can't talk nonsense. What kind of woman doesn't look forward to her husband being around and tender? The concubine is also looking forward to having a son with him."

He Jing already had doubts: "Really?"

Mi's nodded repeatedly: "I have been delivering food to the old man for the past few days, and I am asking you for mercy."

He Jing thought for a while, and suddenly realized: "You sent me food and pleaded with grandpa, didn't you just beg him to release me so that I can run around?! You still said that you are not expecting me to leave Beijing?!"

Mi Shi got a little angry at what he said, and said angrily: "My husband is simply making trouble for no reason!" Then he walked away angrily.

■

Xie Qinghe wandered around the pier for two days, and found out about the merchant ships going to Jiangnan. There are many merchant ships with spacious cabins and suitable conditions, but none of them happened to go to Yangting County.The merchant ships that go directly to Yangting County have either sold out the space, or the living conditions are not good, or they have to be queued for two months.

Xie Qinghe did not make the decision alone, and went home to discuss with Jiang Erniang and Jiang Youniang.

Jiang Youniang cared about the price and asked to take the cheapest boat.

Jiang Erniang hopes to go directly to Yangting County. She has the experience of taking a boat and knows that it is not easy to move things. If she goes to the county to transfer and her sister is injured, she and her brother will move things. I am afraid that it will make him very hard— —My younger brother won't let her do heavy work now.

While Xie Qinghe was deliberating, He Qi suddenly came to deliver a letter, saying that He Jing asked Xie Qinghe to return the booked boat.

"Why?" Xie Qinghe was puzzled.

"The young master still wants to go back to Yangting to study. I think that the young master is getting old. When it comes to enlightenment, if he is not raised by his father, raised in a deep boudoir, and good at women's hands, he can't rest assured. Tell the old man Afterwards, the young master intends to take his young wife and young master to live in Yangting together—since he wants to bring his wife, he must take a boat, so he invites his husband to go with him." He Qi said.

Xie Qinghe felt that He Jing's move was a stroke of genius, and it made sense after thinking about it.

Mrs. Jiao's death involved too much, Mr. He was worried that the Marquis of Qianxi would anger He Jing, so he trapped He Jing at home.However, it's not a problem to trap him all the time. Anyway, He Jing likes to "study" in Yangting County, so she simply packed his wife and children and sent them to the south of the Yangtze River, which is considered "exile" in disguise. Can't go all the way to Jiangnan to find a job?That would be too much.

"Okay. When is the departure over there?" Xie Qinghe asked.

He Qi stammered a little: "When you go out with your family, you have to pack the boxes. This... soon!"

He Jing's wife must also be born as a young lady, how can it be so easy to go out?You have to bring your own spittoon and bucket, and it is even more troublesome for basic necessities.This time He Jing brought his family to live in Yangting County, which was different from when he was a bachelor.Xie Qinghe expressed his understanding.

Jiang Youniang asked curiously, "Is Mr. He married?"

Jiang Erniang said: "There are people in their twenties, but they look younger and energetic, and they don't have a beard yet."

Jiang Youniang nodded silently.

Jiang Erniang is more curious about Yuan Shi'an's marriage: "Xiao Yuan is not young anymore, originally he said he would come back to Beijing to get married. This time is good, there is no divorce with that poisonous woman. Mrs. Qianxi Hou died, so it is considered a marriage. Is Xiao Yuan's aunt or stepmother? If the aunt is okay, Xiao Gong will only be five months old. If this is the stepmother... tsk tsk."

This dynasty governs the world with benevolence and filial piety, and filial piety is very important.In the previous dynasty, the children who were biological mothers, stepmothers, and stepmothers all obeyed the same system, but in this dynasty, they all changed to beheaded.Qi declines for one year and cuts down for three years.If Mrs. Qianxihou was regarded as the stepmother of Qianxihou's son, Yuan Shi'an would have to refrain from marrying for three years.

Thinking of Yuan Shi'an's appearance, Jiang Youniang couldn't help showing sympathy.

Old girls are not easy to marry, and old men are not easy to marry.Even if Yuan Shi'an is the eldest son of the Hou family, once he gets older, it will be more difficult to marry a well-matched and excellent wife, so he can only look down.

"If it's not about me..." Jiang Youniang blamed herself a little.

Jiang Erniang sneered and said, "If it wasn't for your affairs, he would have married that poisonous woman back home. It will be a disaster for three generations of his family!"

Jiang Youniang thought for a while, and felt that her sister was right.

■

He family.

He Jing and Mi Shi are arguing.

Mi's family didn't want to go to the south of the Yangtze River. After she married into the He family, her husband basically stayed away from home and stayed with Yuan Shi'an in Yangting County all the time. There was no relationship between husband and wife at all.After having a son, Mi's back became stiff, and she didn't want to talk to her husband even more.

She lived very comfortably in the capital.He Jing's grandmother is long gone, and the housekeeper is He Jing's eldest aunt, who is not Mi's serious mother-in-law, so she will not be taken care of easily.He Jing is not at home, and her mother-in-law, Mrs. Xuan, is in office with her father-in-law, which is thousands of miles away.As long as she closes the door of the small courtyard, she will be in charge of the whole family, and she will live an unbelievably happy life.

Everyone in the family is looking forward to He Jing's return, and it's not that Mi's is not looking forward to it. After all, it's her own husband. When He Jing returns home, the old man's rewards are more than usual—not that the old man treats her harshly. .She is raising her son alone at home, her mother-in-law and her husband are not around, the old lady has been dead for many years, how can the old man give her things alone casually?

However, she hoped that He Jing would go home on New Year's Eve as before, give her a sense of presence, let her get enough red envelopes, pack up and leave before the husband and wife hate each other—as long as you don't bring an illegitimate child back, go wherever you want all will do.He Jing is at home, she has to serve and please her everywhere, Mi feels that serving her husband is also very tiring, three to five days is fine, ten days and a half months can last, it will be really annoying after a long time!

Now that He Jing is clamoring to take her son away, Mi's quit.Her son is her lifeblood, she will rely on her for the rest of her life, how can she let her husband take it away?When He Jingtu saw it poorly, and asked her to go to Yangting County with her son, the Mi family collapsed even more.No!no way!

He Jing went to discuss the matter with the old man, and got the old man's approval and support.

At this time, Mi finally realized the disadvantage of not having an immediate boss!

Even if she wanted to find someone to reason with, explaining whether the matter was wrong or not, who could she turn to?The old lady died a long time ago, and the mother-in-law is thousands of miles away, and it is impossible for the housekeeper's aunt to reach into the room of the nephew and niece and daughter-in-law!Moreover, the old man has approved it, how can the eldest aunt be willing to stand up?

Mi Shi was so angry that she could only express her dissatisfaction with actions.When He Jing told her to pack up the box and prepare to leave, she hummed and moaned.

On the first day, Mrs. Mi unpacked a small bundle that was one foot square.

The next day, Mrs. Mi opened her jewelry box, instead of picking up her things, she messed up the dressing table.

On the third day, Mrs. Mi packed up the jewelry box.

On the fourth day, Mrs. Mi packed up the jewelry box...

He Jing ran over to take a look, and was furious: "Stinky bitch, you did it on purpose!"

Mrs. Mi performed a faint for him on the spot, and only then woke up slowly after being pinched by a few maidservants, with tears in his eyes: "They are all gentle and respectable families, and the husband actually uttered such bad words to his concubine, it can be seen that The concubine does not cultivate her talent and morality, and is unfit for a gentleman, why not give the concubine a paper of divorce and tell the concubine to go home, ying ying ying..."

He Jing: "..." I can't match you!Be willing to bow down!

After He Jing ate and receded, Mi-shi wiped away her tears and made up some powder, and told the servant girl: "Come, come, continue to play the leaf card."

Some of the maids snickered, while others were more worried, asking: "Miss, will something happen if we offend my uncle so much?"

Mi smiled and said: "Don't worry. The He family has a clean and upright family style. No matter how good your uncle is, there is only one advantage, he is kind. I gave birth to him a son, and it is not at fault for me to do housework, but I just refuse to go with him. Jiangnan, can he still eat me? It's all right."

The servant girl said cautiously: "Then you don't have to be afraid... This matter will reach Mrs. Xuan..."

Mrs. Mi glanced at her: "Who will pass it on? You?" The servants of the He family are tight-lipped, and it is even more impossible for He Jing to write a special letter to tell his mother-in-law about his daughter-in-law. Mrs. Xuan is thousands of miles away, what else can she do? Sample?

That day, He Jing slept in the study sadly, while Mi played leaf cards with the maids for half the night, sleeping very soundly.

Xie Qinghe's luggage was packed, and he was waiting for the boat schedule to return to Yangting County.

He Jing, on the other hand, fought wits and courage with Mi's family at home, and even tried to bribe Mi's maid to help her pack the cage and tie her to the boat.Mi's maid was not easy to bribe, seeing him just giggled, opened the curtain and called: "Young Madam, Young Master is here."

Mi came out with a serious face and asked: "Husband, are you here to rest in my concubine's room?"

He Jing said angrily: "If you don't go to Yangting with my master, my master will take eight concubines there to serve my daily life!"

Mi's eyes blinked, and said: "Husband, this concubine dare not respond to this matter, and I dare not agree to it. If you stop this matter, people say that concubine is jealous and can't tolerate others, and hinders the heirs of the He family. If you don't stop this matter ... Husband, concubine of the eighth house, can you stand up to it? If the body is broken, the mother-in-law will also ask the concubine for guilt."

Being hinted by his wife that he was not good enough, He Jing was so angry that his face turned blue: "You wait for me! Eighth room, I will accept eighteenth room!"

When eating in the evening, He Jing saw a sea oyster on the left and mutton on the right. When she opened the stew pot, it was stewed sea cucumber with deer tendon. She just picked up the chopsticks before she could react. When she saw the servant at the door secretly laughing, He Jing suddenly woke up.These are all aphrodisiac dishes!

While He Jing was angry, she finally gave up on Mi Shi.

He told Ronghua: "Tomorrow you send a letter to the husband and arrange for them to board the boat in the afternoon. Let's follow the plan."

Rong Hua's face turned cold, and he said in a low voice, "Yes."

Early the next morning, Ronghua took someone to Xie Qinghe's place and conveyed He Jing's intention.He Qi and Mrs. Yan didn't have any doubts, they loaded Jiang Erniang's packed luggage one by one, and transported them to the pier first.The He family's boat was already waiting.

Jiang Erniang was very strange about this: "You can't sail at night, why do you have to board the boat in the afternoon? Is the He family going to escape the berthing money at the dock?"

Xie Qinghe knew that He Jing had other plans, but He Jing didn't say anything, and he didn't intend to spread the word, so he casually gave He Jing a reason: "I must be worried that the family members may not be used to the waterway. If you live on the boat overnight, if you get seasick, It’s too late to change to land immediately.”

Jiang Erniang was a little envious: "It's really gentle and considerate."

at the same time.

The gentle and considerate He Jing sneaked into Qianxihou's Mansion with someone, and Yuan Shi'an opened the door for him personally.

"I didn't tell you, just ask someone to open the door for me. Why are you here in person?" He Jing whispered.

Yuan Shi'an was wearing Xiaogong's mourning clothes, his face was a little pale, and he said, "Because I still want to persuade you again."

He pulled He Jing aside, and said in a voice that only each other could hear: "My uncle has a deep grudge against my aunt, and he will not let Shizhen get the position of son. You don't have to do anything, he will be like this all his life .Why get your hands dirty?"

"Don't come here! He killed someone, so he won't be able to get the position of the eldest son who didn't belong to him. He will spend the rest of his life with peace of mind every day. He was martyred...do you call this 'this is the end of life'?"

"My Fu Gui'er also thought, 'This is the way it is for the rest of my life', but Fu Gui'er didn't want to marry a wife and have children, and let his children and grandchildren kneel in the mourning hall and cry. Do you know what happens when he dies? His parents are with my parents. Thousands of miles away, I burned him two knives of paper, that is, a few of his usual friends came to see him, he was so young, he died!"

"If you still recognize me as a brother, just keep your mouth shut and pretend you don't know I'm here!" He Jing shouted.

Yuan Shi'an took a deep breath and said, "I've already dismissed the person. You... go and come back quickly."

He Jing gently lifted the face scarf around her neck to cover her mouth and nose, and led Ronghua and others to run along the route pointed by Yuan Shi'an.

After half a quarter of an hour, He Jing hurried back with her people.

Yuan Shi'an didn't say anything, and after letting them go out, he closed the door and walked slowly back to Mrs. Jiao's mourning hall.

After He Jing took the people out, she took off her face towel, got into her own carriage, and returned to He's house at high speed.He asked Ronghua to hug He Zhuan, while he himself rushed to Mi's yard. Mi was playing with the maids, and was startled when he saw this.

"Come here, I have something to ask you." He Jing's face was terribly serious.

The maids were all trembling with fright, but Mi Shi was not afraid of him, she approached and asked, "What's the matter?"

He Jing approached her ear and whispered, "I just killed Yuan Shizhen. Will you follow me?"

Mi took a deep breath, looked at him in shock and astonishment, suddenly lifted the corner of her skirt and ran into the house, shouting: "Yan'er unlocks the lock and gets the jewelry, silver note, land deed, Yu'er pack ten sets of clothes for each season, Menger hugs my toilet! Where is the young master? Quickly ask the wet nurse to bring the young master. Hurry up, everyone follow me, go right away!"

He Jing was originally holding her heart, but when she saw Mi's swiftly packing her luggage in the house, the corners of her mouth turned up slightly: "I asked someone to hold my son."

In the midst of her busy schedule, Mi stuck her head out of the window and gave him a hard look.

He Jing's good mood lasted until boarding the ship, and Mi Shi hurriedly followed him to escape, and the things he brought were not in order, and his son was awakened from his sleep, crying for a long time.Mi Shi was so angry that she stared at He Jing desperately.She is a girl from a good family, and she doesn't know how to swear, let alone do anything to her husband, she just stares fiercely.
