Quickly wear salted fish, she won by lying down

Chapter 906 The Best Family 33
After coming to the capital for a long time, Mr. Sun has known more and more about the capital. Now when he sees Old Master Sun and Old Madam Sun crying poor for the second branch, he also knows to say this.

Of course, actually he is not good at speaking, but the first wife had long discovered that Old Master Sun and Old Madam Sun coveted the first wife's money and wanted to take it away and give it to the second wife, so the couple had already thought clearly about what to say at home, and now they can say it clearly, instead of being unable to say these things because of their poor speaking skills.

"Besides, we supported the second wife before. The second wife is my younger brother. It's reasonable for me to support her, but this money is earned by my daughter for us to spend. It's reasonable for my daughter to support me as a parent, but it's a bit unreasonable for her to support her uncle's family. I have never heard of such a principle that a married woman should support her uncle's family on her mother's side, and the money she earns should be given to her uncle's family, not to her mother's family. Besides, why don't the nephews and nieces of the second wife support us and give us the money they earn? Are we slaves of the second wife? Not only do we, as the father, have to support their family, but also my married daughter? Speaking of which, my daughter is your majesty's concubine after all. What qualifications does the second wife have to let your majesty's concubine support their family with the money given by your majesty?"

When Old Master Sun and Old Lady Sun heard their eldest son say this, they couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed, so they didn't dare to ask their eldest son to give money to their younger son. Of course, it was mainly because of what the eldest son said, and it made sense - they had never heard of any county magistrate who was short of money.

Although they wanted to say that Master Sun Er was incorruptible, so he had no money and even no house, and he still rented a house, while the eldest son had plenty of money. He not only bought a house with a yard, but also bought so many shops. It was because they saw that the eldest son had so much money that they wanted the eldest son to help the poor younger son.

However, seeing that his eldest son didn't want to hear them say these words and had a look of disgust on his face, he also made it clear that if they kept saying these disappointing words every time, he would not come to announce the good news if Linlang advanced again in the future, so as to avoid coming with high hopes and leaving with disappointments.

What's more, what the eldest son said was right. The money of the first house was earned by Linlang, the married granddaughter. I have only heard of asking the eldest brother to support the younger brother, but I have never heard of asking the married niece to support the uncle, let alone the uncle who is an official. If it were to be made public, it would indeed cause gossip.

In addition, now the eldest son's daughter is a sixth-rank official, which is higher than the youngest son's rank. Old Master Sun and Old Mistress Sun want the youngest son to reconcile with the eldest wife, so that he can get better and better with the help of the eldest wife's granddaughter. So they dare not offend the eldest son now. Unlike before, when the second wife wanted to drive away the eldest wife, although they knew it was unfair to the eldest son, because the eldest wife was nothing, on the contrary, the youngest son became an official as high as the county magistrate. So they didn't dare to say a word, and didn't even dare to ask for travel expenses for the eldest son. They just followed the youngest son and drove the eldest son away.

Now that the eldest son's family is doing better and better, they dare not ignore the first wife as before and not care about her life and death. Since the first wife doesn't like them always mentioning how difficult it is for the second wife, they naturally dare not say it, for fear that the first wife will be unhappy when they hear it. Not to mention that the second wife can rely on the first wife's granddaughter to become a higher official, they will also hate the second wife more and harm her because of the first wife's unhappiness. That is not what they want to see.

Although when they announced the good news last time, Old Master Sun and Old Lady Sun were brainwashed by Madam Sun Er and Sun Linyun and others, they also mentioned in a roundabout way to Old Master Sun who came to announce the good news how difficult it was for the Second House, how they had not bought a house yet, and how miserable their life was. As a result, Old Master Sun said such a lot, and Old Master Sun and Old Lady Sun dared not say anything.

However, Madam Sun and Master Sun still felt that they should not keep the money in their hands, lest there would always be some extreme people who could not bear to see them having extra money in their hands, and would want to ask them for money even though they were obviously very rich. So after Linlang was promoted again, they found ways to spend the money sent by the palace. They bought more shops and rented them out, trying not to keep extra money on hand so that Master Sun and Madam Sun would not be able to ask them for money. If they did, they would say that they had no money and used the money to buy shops.

Not to mention the first house, because Old Master Sun and Old Madam Sun always tried to get them to support the second house in a roundabout way, the whole family of the first house became more and more disgusted with the second house. As a result, including Old Master Sun, who had always been filial to the old couple and believed whatever they said, began to dislike the old couple more and more. But Linlang was promoted this time because of the news of her illness, so both the first and second houses were happy. It goes without saying that the first house was happy, and they were happy every time they heard that Linlang was promoted. But the second house was unhappy every time they heard good news about Linlang.

Fortunately, this time, they heard that Linlang was ill, so they were also happy, which was really rare. Seeing the second house being so happy when they heard that Linlang had been promoted, the people in the first house thought that the second house's reaction was quite strange. After all, their own family was doing well, and when had the second house ever been happy?

Because the first wife felt it was strange, she started wondering what the second wife was up to.

But after careful observation, the eldest wife did not find anything wrong with the second wife, so she thought she was overthinking.

——Master Sun Er received the news that Linlang was "ill". Although he shared the good news with his family, he also told everyone not to mention this to the first wife, lest the first wife try to find a doctor to treat Linlang. It would be bad if Linlang was fine.

After all, the imperial physician does not live in the palace, but in the capital. If the first wife wants to find one, she may really find one. Then, she can give him more money and ask him to help treat Linlang's illness. It may be possible. But this is not what the second wife wants to see.

After all, Sun Linlang had finally gotten into trouble, so they naturally didn't want her to get better.

The people in the second house also knew this, but they naturally did not show it in public, so Master Sun did not notice anything wrong. He was just happy to see that the rent from his family was increasing every month, and that his life would be getting better and better in the future.

Although for the time being the family still needs to take care of the household chores themselves without hiring or hiring anyone, at least the family has enough money, which is naturally a good thing.

What they don’t know is that a crisis is coming towards them.

It turned out that Master Sun Er saw that Linlang was doing better and better, and was afraid that she would really climb higher and higher, and he would not be able to deal with her then, so he had already started to prepare for both situations.

That is, on the one hand, he contacted the eunuchs in the palace to help him deal with Linlang, and on the other hand, he began to make plans to contact the men and women in the first house.
