Zhumen Hangui

Chapter 118
"Mother!" When Tang saw the old lady approaching, she finally sobbed aggrievedly.

The old lady is just the mother-in-law. If she has been wronged as usual, she is not willing to give in in front of the old lady.But today, the master really broke her heart.

She took a step forward and knelt down in front of the old lady with a plop.

"Mother! I didn't expect to alarm you, so I thank you for your kindness. But since you are here, the daughter-in-law there has something to say. It is not the daughter-in-law who wants to make trouble today, but the master has gone too far."

Tang wiped her tears with a handkerchief, feeling disheartened for a while.

"The daughter-in-law has been familiar with "The Precepts for Women" since she was a child. Before she got married, her father obeyed the teachings. When she married and obeyed her husband, she had to abide by women's morals. The master just doesn't like his daughter-in-law, and even speaks slanderous words."

Tang choked up for a while, and Su Yizhao, who was standing outside the house, was moved by what he said.

"Since the master is not compatible with the concubine, the concubine does not force her to do so. She can only feel sad that we are destined to be separated. Today, I ask my mother-in-law to make the decision, so that my husband and I can reconcile and separate. In the future, we will have nothing to do with each other."

After Tang shi finished speaking, she prostrated herself on the ground, crying until her shoulders were shaking, but her tone was very firm.

Su Yizhao was startled when he heard the words, did this make such a fuss?

Dayun Dynasty is not so tolerant towards women, most of them are divorced, and there are very few women who get married.

Even if it is a divorce, it is not easy for a woman to remarry after that.

The old lady, who was still very angry at first, was also very angry after hearing this. She said: "This? Why is this? The fourth child has always been like this. After getting older, he has changed a lot. You don't have to Take it to heart."

"Fourth, why don't you admit your daughter-in-law's fault? It's your fault. If you are willing to improve, your daughter-in-law won't make such a fuss with you."

The old lady looked at Su Wenqing whose neck was stuck at the side, couldn't help frowning, and scolded twice.

"My son has been here for so many years, and she insisted on making a fuss with me. Didn't my mother say that she would let me go? What? Now you are coming to persuade me instead? Mother is going back on what she said?"

Su Wenqing was so angry that she sat down on the round stool and turned her head away.

The old lady's face darkened, and it took a while before she recovered.

The fourth child has always been so out of tune, and it's not like she doesn't know it, so there's no need to get angry with him.

"If you don't want to end, that's up to you. But you've passed your forties, how can you still act like this? It just so happens that there are a lot of general affairs in the house, and your father is so busy every day that he doesn't touch the ground, and he has a lot of energy." It's not as good as before, you might as well share some of it for your father."

As soon as these words came out, Tang who was lying on the ground clenched his silver teeth in anger.

Instead of persuading the master to go to scientific research, he let a scholar go out and do the job of managing affairs.

The old lady is really a snake-hearted person, she indulged the master so much that she will not be able to support the master for four or six years.

"Mother! I am afraid that the master is not willing to touch these things, he wants to be with me wholeheartedly"

"Old lady, someone is coming from the old man's side!" A woman entered the house and reported.

Su Yizhao looked at a steward standing outside the house, this was Su Huai, the chief steward who was served by the old man.

Unexpectedly, even the old man was alarmed. Could it be that Su Wenqing and his wife had been arguing for a long time?

Su Yizhao watched as Su Wenqing was led out by the mother-in-law and walked to the outer study.

"Xiaoqi, come in!" Su Yizhao was watching Su Wenqing's leaving back, but heard the old lady call her in.

After entering the house, she saluted the old lady and Tang Corporation.

Tang was in a displeased mood and didn't want to talk to her, so she said she had a headache and went to the inner room after a reply.

The old lady didn't take it seriously, she sat at the top, and began to look at Su Yizhao.

In the past few days, I haven't paid much attention to this concubine. Today, I saw that the child looks good and behaves very elegantly. He has the demeanor of a nobleman.

Su Wenqing has a good appearance, so it is impossible for the outer room to have a bad appearance.It's just that he came from the countryside, and after only a few months, the scorn of the countryside has disappeared?

The old lady stared at Su Yizhao in a daze, making Su Yizhao think about it.

"It's been getting late for you to return home these days, but there is something unclear about your career, do you need to stay in the academy to study?" the old lady suddenly said.

Sure enough, Su Yizhao's heart sank.

"Back to grandma! Because my teacher traveled far away, I had to disturb Mrs. Qin. My grandson is late in literacy, so naturally I can only devote more energy than others."

I don't know how much the old lady knows. Of course, Su Yizhao will not pretend to be self-confident.

The old lady chuckled when she heard the words, "Then what do you mean, you have been studying until so late every day? But I heard from the coachman at the house that you left the academy every day when school was over, Don't let him follow, you won't return home until the sky is dark."

Naturally, the coachman wouldn't hide it for her, and Su Yizhao certainly knew it.

"I can't hide this from you, and my grandson doesn't need to hide it from you. My grandson went to the book store to read books. After getting acquainted with the shopkeeper, I thought about copying books for reading."

Su Yizhao stammered and smiled at the old lady with some embarrassment.

"Copying books?" The old lady asked suspiciously, a little at a loss.

"Yes! My grandson often hears from his mother that his father does not have a living, and that the fourth house does not have a good life, but he spends a lot of money on his studies, so he feels ashamed. The grandson also wants to buy a lot of books, so he can only do this. It is also a grandson. I don't want my mother to be troubled, so I have a reputation in the Luosu Mansion, and I am willing to be punished by my grandmother."

After Su Yizhao finished speaking, he lifted his hem and knelt down.

I'm sorry for Su Wenqing and his wife, Su Yizhao can only find this reason.

In fact, he was writing a novel for a few days, and every time he went to school, it was the old man he met at the beginning.

The old man had a very small book shop, because it was located in a remote place and there were not many books in the book shop, so the business was very bleak, and it was once so bad that he had to set up a stall on the street.

Even if some people come to buy it occasionally, they will return the price to the old man and lose money.

In the past few days, Su Yizhao went to his bookstore, and when he left, he walked through the back door of the bookstore.

Fortunately, she took precautions. It seems that the old lady didn't find out what she was doing recently.But she has to be more careful in the future, so as not to be spotted by the old lady.

"Grandson has become a little proficient in copying these days, and the speed is much faster. A book costs [-] Wen, and I have saved a total of [-] Wen."

Su Yizhao took out an old blue purse from his arms and put it on the ground.

The old lady saw that the purse was heavy and there was the sound of copper coins when it was put down, so she also believed it a little bit.

Her face softened slightly, but her tone was still stern, "Our Su family is an aristocratic family after all, and your grandfather is an official worshiper of Guanglu Temple. How could it be possible for a child of an aristocratic family to make money by copying books? Tell them what they think of us ?”

"What's more, you are still focusing on your career at present. This will not only delay your admission to school, but also increase your bad reputation in vain."
