A Concubine of Salted Fish in Qing Dynasty [Red House]

When Li Gege was copying the scriptures, hoping to win back the favor of the fourth elder brother, Mrs. Tang fell ill.

At her age, illness is no small matter.

Because Chenyu is now in Yangzhou, not in the capital, Yun Shuyao went to visit the Tang family, otherwise, as a grandson-in-law who was engaged, he should have come to visit.

The old lady is also very nervous about this matter, mainly because she is worried that if the old lady of the Tang family does not get over her illness, it will be difficult to get married this year. Unless the marriage is done within a hundred days, the woman must keep her filial piety.

But if you get married within a hundred days, you will inevitably suffer grievances.

The scale of the event and the number of people invited will be discounted.

If such a situation can be avoided, of course it must be avoided. The old lady hopes that when her grandson gets married, everything will be smooth and beautiful.

Yun Shuyao didn't want anything to happen to her either.

She has dealt with the old lady of the Tang family several times, and she is also a very transparent person.

The Tang family is also a well-established family. They were already officials in the previous dynasty. In the new dynasty, they also seized the opportunity and continued.

Now the highest official position in the Tang family is Tang Wanxin's second uncle, who is a fourth-rank magistrate in other places, so now the old lady Tang and her third and fourth sons live together in the capital.

Another commendable thing is that the generation of the Tang family has no concubine children.

All the masters of the Tang family were born to Mrs. Tang.

Their husband and wife have a very good relationship, and when it comes to the next generation, there are not many concubines, only Tang Wanxin's second uncle has a daughter who is a concubine.

Tang Wanxin's yard is next to the old lady of the Tang family, and she was raised under her grandmother's knees. Now that the old lady Tang is sick, she is also the most sad and anxious, and has become quite emaciated.

Tang Wanxin has a standard lady-shaped oval face, which is not the type that is stunning at first glance, but the longer you look at it, the more beautiful you will think it is.

"Please trouble Mrs. Yun to come over, grandma is fine."

Yun Shuyao held Tang Wanxin's hand, "What did the doctor say about this journey?"

"The doctor said that grandma had a bit of a bitter summer, and she caught a bit of cold, alternating hot and cold, and that's why she got sick. Now that she's taken the medicine, she's much better. I think she'll recover in a few days."

"That's fine."

For a sick person, it is a very troublesome thing to have someone come to visit, because when a guest comes, you can't be rude and lie on the bed with only your shirt on, with no makeup on your face, looking haggard, right?

In order to meet guests properly, one has to get up, wash and change clothes. If there are too many people visiting, the patient will not even have time to rest.

That's why some people close the door when they get sick and declare rest, so that they can get a full rest.

As soon as Yun Shuyao entered the room, she saw the same situation. Mrs. Tang had already dressed up in advance, and she couldn't see much else except that her complexion was worse than usual.

After asking about their physical condition with concern, the two sides chatted.

The biggest topic they can talk about is Chenyu.

He is now in Yangzhou, he sent letters and gifts from Yangzhou before, the Lin family has them, and the Tang family also has them.

Leaving aside the letter inside, the gifts he gave were not worth much, but they were quite wild.

When Lin Daiyu received it, she liked it very much. She picked out the ones she liked the most and put them on her desk. When she was reading and writing, she could see them when she looked up.

Yun Shuyao saw it here on a bamboo couch next to the old lady Tang. Judging from the things beside it, this should be the place where Tang Wanxin took care of her grandmother and slept, so some of her things were placed here. odds and ends.

Yun Shuyao looked at it and smiled secretly.

She also met Tang Wanxin's younger brother. He is 14 years old this year, and he is still a young man. He is growing up, as thin as a bamboo pole, but his temperament does not match her age, and he is relatively calm.

According to the etiquette, we met, said a few words of greeting, and then he left.

Tian explained with a smile, "Master is in class, so he has to go back and continue."

Yun Shuyao naturally opened her mouth to praise, "He is a hardworking and good boy, such a child will be able to make a head start sooner or later, the eldest wife is well-bred."

Tian's face was flushed by her praise, seeing how Yun Shuyao looked and how kindly she looked.

She couldn't sleep for countless nights because of her daughter's important events in her life. For those who are engaged and married, she will not be so troubled before.

She is very satisfied with the Lin family's marriage, and now she is naturally smiling.

"Where can I compare Chen Yu, a young talent, this time participating in Qiu Wei will definitely win in one fell swoop..."

When Yun Shuyao left the gate of the Tang family, she had a smile on her face.

When going back in the carriage, through the vaguely raised curtain, she saw a familiar person.

Immediately changed the destination, "Wait, don't go back yet, I want to buy something, stop in front."

The person she saw was none other than Wang Xifeng's person she had seen before. She moved her things again and entered the pawn shop.

This time she changed her attire, painted her face black, and even had a big mole, but a person's height, shape, and walking posture cannot be easily changed.

This time the things she moved were small, no more than the last time when three people moved the things in. Today she carried a wooden box that was as high as her knees and carried it in by herself.

Looking at this size, you can first eliminate the furniture option.

What is it?

Yun Shuyao passed by the door for a while, at such a close distance, any baby would sense it, but regretfully found that there was no sense at all, she glanced out of the corner of her eye, and saw that it was a vase.

The style is more magnificent, not the type that Yun Shuyao is interested in.

But it was changed to a vase, and the furniture was sold out?

...How many things does the Jia family have left to sell?

She continued to walk forward as if nothing had happened, and she had already got off the carriage, so she went back to buy something.

Coincidentally, there was a restaurant in front of her, and she saw two acquaintances, one was Yingyu's husband, Dachun, and the other was Jia Lian, coming out of the restaurant at the same time, chatting and laughing.

How could the two of them be together?

There is nothing to be seen from the faces of the two of them, Yun Shuyao thought for a while, apart from the Lin family as the intersection, they should have no other way to know each other, right?

The Jia family's interpersonal communication is basically limited to the old relatives before, and they are all in that small circle.

Xilinjueluo's family is not in that circle.

She wrote it down first, then went to the shop in front of her, and bought some random things. When she went back in the carriage, Yun Shuyao suddenly felt a little interesting. If it had been earlier, Jia Lian could have gone to the pawn shop with her The man in front of him ran into it, and if he recognized it, it would be a wonderful scene.

Did he know about pawning the belongings in the house?

In the evening, after Lin Ruhai came back, Yun Shuyao told him what she saw on the street today.

Lin Ruhai was a little puzzled, "Dachun is walking with him?"

Under what circumstances would the eldest son-in-law look for Jia Lian?

"I'll pay attention."

Lin Ruhai thought for a while, and he should have finished the homework assigned to Dachun before, "I'll go and urge him."

Yun Shuyao couldn't help laughing out loud after hearing this, "Eldest Uncle probably will have a headache for a while."

Lin Ruhai chuckled: "There is a lot of time given, if he pays close attention, he can already finish writing."

The problem is that Dachun didn't catch up, and now his claws are numb.

Dachun's life is very comfortable, although his father-in-law will assign him homework, and he has to complete the schedule set by his wife, and there is a little nagging from his grandmother, other than these, the life is peaceful and leisurely.

As a result, this leisurely good day had to come to an end.

Dachun sighed to his wife: "Why did my father-in-law ask someone to ask me for my homework? It's not too long."

Yingyu pursed her lips and smiled: "I reminded you before."

Dachun had a bitter face: "Next time, next time, you must urge me to finish writing early."

Regrets are regrets, Dachun had to cheer up, just like the previous class meeting, staying up late and lighting the lights, he felt that if he did it again, his old problem of not wanting to move until the last time would be gone. To be cured.

With dark circles under his eyes, he brought his homework to the door of the Lin family.

Father-in-law did not criticize her, but explained to him one by one where he made mistakes or had ambiguities, which made Dachun a little ashamed.

He thought he had already taken care of it, but it turned out that there were still so many minor problems.

Lin Ruhai, "You are right not to take the exam this year, you still need to accumulate more."

Dachun thought: I never thought about taking the exam this year.

He is not a brother-in-law, if he goes to participate, it is purely to torture himself, there is no hope of living.

Then he heard his father-in-law ask again: "Recently, have you been in contact with the second cousin Lian of the Jia family?"

Dachun never thought that he would ask himself to hand in his homework in advance, just to ask this question, thought it was just a casual question, and replied, "Yes, there is a Zhuangzi in his family who works in Fengtian, and my father works in Fengtian, so he I want to ask us to check the situation over there."

After hesitating for a while, Dachun said, "Father-in-law, I think his family's Zhuangzi should be those servants who are not very obedient."

Lian's second cousin said that the family's Zhuangzi's income is decreasing every year, and there are various problems every year, so the production has decreased.

It is true that farming will not be smooth every year, but Dachun is not a person who does not touch the spring water. He has even worked in the field by himself. "There has been no disaster in Fengtian in the past two years. The future should only increase rather than decrease."

Lin Ruhai was a little disappointed when he heard this. As the eldest son of the Duke Cheng, he finally realized that something was wrong with his family.

"You tell the truth."

It's not too late, if someone is sent to manage it in time, it can still be saved.

Lin Ruhai didn't like the Jia family, but when something happened to the Jia family, the Lin family and Daiyu couldn't stay out of it completely. If one day, the house of the Jia family, which had been brilliant for many years, collapsed, Daiyu was the granddaughter of the Jia family, and she would not be punished. Helping hands, people will point and point behind their backs, people say, it's scary.

Li Gege copied the scriptures devoutly in front of the Buddha statue. The fourth elder brother knew it and frowned, pretending not to know.

He is still waiting.

There has been news before that the man ran to the south, the journey was far away, and it took a lot of time.

Not long after, the good news came that he was finally found, and the results of the interrogation came out, which was not surprising to the fourth elder brother.

The fourth elder brother was very disappointed.

Disappointed with Lee.

I was also disappointed with the Li family who dared to intervene.

If the Li family hadn't helped cover it up, he wouldn't have taken him so long to catch him.

He won't take it to heart if he is jealous, and it's a trivial matter to be arrogant, but if he dares to do something to his heir, this is something the fourth elder brother can't tolerate.

The fourth elder brother asked Li Gege to take back all the special treatment. Although her status is Gege, in fact, the treatment she enjoys is basically according to the status of Fang Fujin.

Then he had the three children called over.

The daughter looked at him anxiously. The second elder brother was six years old and half understood. The youngest son was only three years old. His eyes were pure and bright, and he didn't understand anything.

He didn't want a few children to be contaminated with these unscrupulous calculations.

He patted Yahui's hand reassuringly: "Your Song Erniang is pure and good-natured, do you like her?"

Yahui didn't understand at first, but when she understood, tears came out of her eyes immediately: "Ama..."

Fourth elder brother: "Be obedient."

Yahui held back her tears: "The younger brother..."

Fourth elder brother: "They are men, and they are not too young at this age. It's time to go to the front yard."

Yahui felt relieved a lot.

That's... okay?If the younger brother is raised by other mothers, the mother will go crazy.

Now that she is in front of Ama, Erniang should feel relieved.
