Great Song Super Scholar

Chapter 412
Zhu Pei cried again when she returned home. She lay on the bed, her mind was dazed, and her mind was blank. The initial resentment had been vented, and now she was at a loss, not knowing what to do?

'Did I really make a mistake? '

'impossible. '

Zhu Pei looked at the several yellowed letters on the table, which she found in a small box in her husband's study room. The letters Ouyang Qian wrote to him had been well preserved for so many years.

'It must be true, my husband must have been with her without telling me. '

'Cocoa why? '

While thinking wildly, Aya's voice came from the door, "See Madam!"

"Aya, you go first! I'll talk to her."

At this time, the door opened and Mrs. Wang walked in. She saw several letters on the table at a glance. She picked them up and looked at them, shook her head, and put the letters down.

"Pearl, are you still crying?"

Zhu Pei's nose was sore, and she cried while her mother was sobbing, while Wang lovingly stroked her daughter's head.

"Pei'er, Amei told me. She went to investigate Ouyang's house, and found out that Ouyang Qian was driven out of the house by her stepmother, and her whereabouts are unknown."

"why?"

Zhu Pei raised her head, her eyes were red and swollen like peaches, and tears flowed all over her pretty face.

"It has something to do with her father's matter! The stepmother's brother died in prison, so she blamed Ouyang Qian."

Jupe is extremely smart, and she understood immediately when she thought about it.

Her voice choked up again, "My husband must have bought her a house. Manager Liu said that my husband withdrew three thousand coins a while ago."

Wang sighed, "It's not a good thing for girls to be as smart as you! Some things, you should be a little bit confused."

"But he shouldn't have raised a woman outside without telling me!"

After a moment of silence, Wang said in a low voice: "Actually, your father also has a woman outside."

"what!"

Zhu Pei was stunned. The relationship between the parents is so good, how could the father?
Wang sighed and said: "If that woman is an innocent woman, I will let her enter the mansion, but she is a prostitute, I can't accept it, so I made an agreement with your father that he can raise him, but he is not allowed to bring her into the house." Come."

"Daddy also has prostitutes?"

Zhu Pei also knew that the literati and bureaucrats in the Song Dynasty liked to keep prostitutes. If her husband also kept prostitutes outside, she would not be so sad, but it was Ouyang Qian, who was greatly hurt emotionally.

Wang said again: "In fact, 20 years ago, your father also married a concubine. At that time, your eldest brother was in poor health. I was under a lot of pressure, so I acquiesced in allowing him to marry a concubine. Later, the concubine died of dystocia. , you were not born at that time, your father was very sad, and later he refused to marry a concubine again, but I know he will never forget it in his heart."

"Mother, I'm not such a stingy person. You see, I'm ready to let Aya be his concubine in the same room, but he shouldn't hide it from me, and he has always been obsessed with Ouyang Qian. Does he like me or does he like me?" Do you like Ouyang Qian?"

Wang pondered for a while and said: "Actually, you can change your mind. He knew Ouyang Qian earlier than you, and you snatched him away from Ouyang Qian."

"what!"

Zhu Pei was stunned for a while, "Mother, I don't have any"

Wang smiled and said: "I'm just saying this, you grew up with his childhood sweetheart, how could he have no feelings for you? I think Aning must like you, because he chose you, you must know that Ouyang Xiu's status is comparable to Your father is Gao, it would be more beneficial to marry his daughter, but he still married you instead of Ouyang Qian in the end."

"Since you are married, I should be single-minded. Why do you have to break with her? Greedy bad guy!"

The smile on Wang's face gradually disappeared, and his expression became serious, "Pei'er, have you ever thought about why he can't break up with Ouyang Qian?"

"why?"

Wang bit her lip and said, "Actually, this is what I'm most worried about, Pei'er, you have no children!"

Zhu Pei suddenly became anxious, "But he said he doesn't care, now we are not in a hurry!"

"That's what he said to comfort you. How desperate was your father when he found out that your brother was wrong? Ah Ning is 21 this year, and he is already a fourth-rank senior official, but he has no children. Do you think he can take it easy? And his parents Also anxious!"

Zhu Pei's face turned pale, and she remembered that when she came back by boat, her husband obviously liked Mingli's son very much, but in front of her, he pretended not to like him, and didn't even want to hug him, just like what the mother said , He is taking care of his emotions!

"Mother, what should I do then?" Zhu Pei was in a state of confusion.

Wang was silent for a moment and said: "Tell me the truth first, are you willing to divorce Ah Ning?"

Zhu Pei hurriedly shook her head, the divorce was just an angry word, that was her beloved husband, how could she be willing to give up?

"In this case, you have to be mentally prepared."

Zhu Pei hesitated and said, "Mother, you mean to let her in?"

Mrs. Wang nodded slowly, "Ouyang Xiu is not such an easy person to deal with. Maybe Ouyang Qian is pregnant, and you will go away in the end. This is what I am most worried about. You have to be smart, first put Ouyang Qian's Once the status is settled, let her be a concubine, her father will no longer be able to threaten you. This is what happens with women. When she has no status, she has every opportunity. Once she has a status, it will be difficult for her to stand up again. .”

"Mother, if you don't want to give her some money, I'll give her one hundred thousand coins and let her leave Aning!"

"Don't be silly, those letters are still on the table? It's impossible for Aning to leave hers behind. After she got Aning, would she still care about the [-] coins?

You have no choice, either she will take your place, or you will suppress her, Pearl, you have to distinguish between the priorities, what is the most important?Your first wife is the most important, don't let others have the opportunity to replace you, Ape, you have to be brave and talk to her. "

Zhu Pei had no choice but to sigh: "But... I don't know where she is?"

"There is a way to find her. Amei will go and find out tomorrow morning."

At noon the next day, a large carriage stopped in front of an alley outside the east gate. Jian Meizi looked at the note and said to Zhu Pei, "This is it, the room at the end is!"

Jian Meizi found Ouyang Qian's house in the government through a dentist, which made Zhu Pei very uncomfortable. Her husband actually bought the house under Ouyang Qian's name.

Seeing her unhappy face, Jian Meizi couldn't help persuading her, "It's a small yard with only eight cents of land, why do you care about this with her?"

"When that dead dumb comes back, he must buy me an [-]-acre manor!"

Jupe grumbled fiercely before getting out of the carriage.

The two walked into the alley and came to the innermost part. Zhu Pei knocked on the door, and a little lady's voice came from inside, "Who is it?"

"I'm looking for Miss Ouyang."

The door opened a crack, revealing a pair of vigilant eyes, "Who are you?"

"If your master's name is Ouyang Qian, that's right."

"A Tao, who is it?" Another young woman's voice came from behind.

"Girl, there are two women, I don't know each other."

At this time, the door opened, and Ouyang Qian appeared at the door. The two of them looked at each other with a feeling of amazement. Zhu Pei guessed that the woman in front of her was Ouyang Qian. She was very dignified and beautiful, and she was completely different from the vixen she imagined. For one thing, the resentment in Zhu Pei's heart suddenly subsided a lot.

"You are sister Ouyang!" A sweet smile appeared on Zhu Pei's face.

"You are."

"I am Jupe, and my husband is Fanning."

"Ah!" A panic flashed in Ouyang Qian's eyes, and the Lord came to the door.

"So it's Madam, please come in!"

Zhu Pei felt the panic of the other party, and she was quite proud. She obviously had a psychological advantage.

"That's disturbing."

Zhu Pei walked into the yard and looked around a bit, and saw that the yard was tidy, but it was still very simple, with only a few rooms.

"This yard was bought with three thousand coins?"

Ouyang Qian was short of breath and said in a low voice, "Yes!"

Zhu Pei shook his head, "It's expensive. This is an outer city. If you ask me, it's worth two thousand coins at most."

After a moment of silence, Ouyang Qian said: "Madam, sit down a moment, I'll make tea for you."

"Sister Qian, please call me Ape! My husband also calls me that, calling me Madam, I feel too old."

Seeing that she didn't seem to be hostile, Ouyang Qian was slightly relieved. She invited Zhu Pei to sit in the room and made her some tea.

Zhu Pei saw that the house was even more shabby, and there were still some leftovers on the table, which should be reserved for dinner. They were all light vegetarian dishes, and there was no meat, which showed that they were living very frugally, and the anger in Zhu Pei's heart disappeared. After a few minutes, she probed to look at the next door. The next door was a study room. Several rows of bookshelves were filled with all kinds of books, which seemed to be new books.

"Sister Qian, is this your study?"

"Yes, you can go in and sit down!"

Zhu Pei walked into the room and sat down, and saw a poem written on the large desk.

Xianyun is clever, Feixing spreads hatred, and Yinhan looms dark.

As soon as the golden wind and jade dew meet, they will win, and there are countless people in the world.

The tenderness is like water, and the good times are like dreams.

If the two loves last for a long time, how can they be there, day and night.

Although this poem is well written and the characters are beautiful, it still made Zhu Pei curl his lips, what is meant by "if the two loves last for a long time, how can they be in the same day and night." 'Who is this talking about?
At this time, Ouyang Qian came in with two cups of tea. Seeing Zhu Pei reading the words on the table, she couldn't help but blushed, and quickly said: "I wrote this indiscriminately. Let my husband make A Pei laugh."

"The handwriting is very beautiful, as expected of a lady."

Zhu Peiyan praised insincerely, she took the teacup and sat down, looked around the room, and said with a smile: "When I was very young, I saw a letter from Dumb's room, Dumb is my husband, I I always like to call him Dumb, you wrote him that letter, I knew Sister Qian at that time, but I didn't expect Sister Qian to be so beautiful."

Ouyang Qian smiled shyly and said, "Few women dare to say they are beautiful in front of you."

Ouyang Qian's praise made Zhu Pei feel very comfortable. She rolled her eyes and asked with a smile: "Sister Qian has been in the capital all along, how did she know my husband?"

"At that time, his cousin's grandfather, that is, Mr. Fan, brought him to the capital and lived in my house."

"I also met him at that time, in Daxiangguo Temple."

"What a coincidence, I remember one day, I took Aning to the Daxiangguo Temple, I went to line up to buy Granny Cao's meatloaf, and he went to the Daxiangguo Temple alone, could it be that day?"

"It should be! He seems to have been to Daxiangguo Temple once."

Zhu Pei suddenly realized that she knew Fan Ning not a few days later than Ouyang Qian, so it wasn't that she took away A Ning herself, but that A Ning chose herself in the end, and she immediately felt better.

"It's really interesting. If I had walked a few more steps then, I would have known Sister Qian."

"No, life is so wonderful, but these few steps took us to meet more than ten years later."

Zhu Pei took a sip of tea, then tentatively asked, "I thought Sister Qian was already married."

Ouyang Qian sighed, and she did not hide from Zhu Pei, so she told Zhu Pei about her misfortune in detail, especially when her father watched her being kicked out of the house and was powerless, she couldn't help crying.

Zhu Pei was silent for a long time, and she whispered for a long time: "There are some things I don't want to talk about, and Sister Qian understands in her heart that I am here today to invite you to live in my house."

Ouyang Qian was taken aback, and she was suddenly touched, "You don't blame me?"

Zhu Pei secretly gritted his teeth, held back the hatred in his heart and said: "Whether I blame you or not, things are like this, you are also a poor person, I don't want to make things difficult for you, now I just want to clean up that brat, wait for him Come back and watch how I beat him!"
