Eldest daughter

Chapter 418 Min'er Farewell
Wang Yuan'er had another night's dream. In the dream, she was being chased by someone. She kept running, and there were sharp cries and loud yells, which made her fall asleep and toss and turn. Yes, very unsteady, and finally wept inexplicably.

Cui Yuan was woken up by her soft sipping sound, he patted her face to wake her up, and fed her water himself, then softly coaxed her back to sleep.

It's already February, and the rare clear moonlight came in through the window and sprinkled on her face, Cui Yuan looked down, she was still frowning, she seemed to be sleeping restlessly, she couldn't help but sighed, Hostility gradually arose in my heart.

Within a few days, Wang Yuan'er heard the news that the aunt of the Tang family woke up overnight and somehow found that she had rashes all over her body. When she scratched her hands, her hands were full of pustules. She was terrified and wanted to call someone, but found that she couldn't speak. I can't help but be shocked.

The Tang family's move was like stabbing a hornet's nest. The aunt's sister-in-law was afraid that the aunt had some kind of madness that would make her overwhelmed, and regardless of the protest of the seriously ill mother-in-law, she invited the aunt out without saying a word. The second Mrs. Tang was so angry that she had a stroke on the spot, and ended up with her mouth crooked and unable to speak.

And this aunt, that is, Tang Xueer, was kicked out of her natal family by her sister-in-law. She had no choice but to find a doctor, but she couldn't find a good one. Well, she couldn't even enter the door of the Ma Mansion. The gatekeeper said that she had an infectious disease. She was tied up and sent to Zhuangzi for isolation, and she died soon after.

For Tang Xueer's fate, Wang Yuaner was shocked, but did not feel pity or sympathy. Poor people must have something to hate, and she can only blame her for being restless, wanting to compare herself with the sky, and even wanting to harm others. .

And knowing the rumors about Wang Min'er's past incident was still taken into the palace to attack Wang Qing'er by someone with a heart, Wang Yuan'er was even more unhappy. Fortunately, Cui Yuan said that although she was in a difficult situation, she had coped with it anyway, so Wang Yuan'er was relieved in one breath.

In the blink of an eye, it was March in Yangchun, and the spring plowing had already begun. Wang Yuan'er had just finished handling the family affairs, dismissed the steward, and taught Lan'er, who came to the mansion to follow her as a housekeeper, for a while, and was falling asleep, when the servant came Report, Wang Miner came to say goodbye.

Wang Yuaner was slightly taken aback, farewell?

Wang Min'er walked in quickly, with a tired look on her face and blue shadows under her eyelids. It was obvious that she didn't have enough rest these days.

After the girl served tea and left, Wang Yuan'er asked, "Why, are you going back to Quanzhou?"

Wang Min'er picked up the tea bowl and took a sip, then smiled wryly: "If you don't go back, why are you still staying here as an embarrassment?"

Wang Yuan'er was silent, knowing that she was referring to the rumors spread by the townspeople these days, and couldn't think of words of comfort for a moment.

Wang Min'er didn't care too much, so she said it first: "I came back to have a banquet as an aunt, but now that the banquet is over, what am I doing as a married aunt? I’ve lived here for a month, and I can’t live there for a long time.”
Wang Yuan'er frowned, and said, "Ms. Xu showed your face?"

"How dare she." Wang Min'er laughed mockingly: "She married in by herself, and played tricks. How dare she use my affairs to talk about it."

"where……"

"It's because I'm tired." Wang Min'er sighed, that face that was much rounder than before, and even had some wrinkles at the corners of the eyes, was a bit bitter, it was actually a few years older than her real age like.

"I think back then, my heart was higher than the sky, and I wanted to marry a rich family to be a young mistress and enjoy all the glory and wealth. Then the lard got my heart, and the hot-headed got together with Tang Xiuping. Unbelievably, I was to blame for that, and I screwed myself up."

Wang Yuan'er frowned when she heard that, full of displeasure, and persuaded: "It's all about the year of the monkey, how old is Zhi Lian, why are you bringing it up? The mouth grows on other people, can you stop them all? You don’t have to make things difficult for yourself.”

Wang Min'er snorted: "How come I don't know what you said? But Lian'er can't bear the burden of my own sins!"

Wang Yuan'er was startled when she heard these words, sat up straight, and said with a serious face: "Could it be that someone still dragged Lian'er?"
Wang Min'er's eyes turned red all of a sudden: "...it's okay to say that she is a concubine's daughter, a child of adultery, but I don't care about it, but it hurts more than cutting out my heart."

Bang!

Wang Yuan'er slapped the coffee table next to her hard, knocking the teacup twice, and said angrily, "Who is so open-mouthed that he won't let go of even a child."

"People's words are terrible, three people become tigers, you say what I say, who says it's not the same?" Wang Min'er looked through the coldness and warmth of human feelings.

Wang Yuan'er was very angry, what was wrong with the child, what she hated the most was to use the ignorant child as an excuse, how innocent?

"Your second aunt is really a troublemaker." Wang Yuan'er blamed Wang Min'er's aunt. If it wasn't for her sloppy mouth, it would be more than that.
"Forget it, I did it myself, so I can't blame others." Wang Min'er looked indifferent, and said, "Can't you hide from me if you can't provoke me? I'm already married, and it's the water that was poured out. My husband's family is here. It’s naturally there. I’ve thought about it, and I’ll stay and settle in Quanzhou wholeheartedly in the future, and I won’t come back if I have nothing to do. If you pass by Quanzhou in the future, you can also come and drink two cups of tea.”

Wang Yuan'er was shocked: "You don't even want your mother's family?" Just because of these rumors.

"It's not that I don't want it, but I always think about Lian'er. She's a girl, and she's going to get married in the future. I don't want her to carry such a reputation all her life, and I don't want her to suffer from what I have done. Quanzhou The sky is high and the road is far away. There, no one knows where she came from, and it will be easier to marry in the future. As for her natal family..." Wang Min'er said with some helplessness: "My husband's family will also pour water from a married woman. If you are not prominent, what does it matter if you don’t go back to your natal family? My father and mother won’t be given the reputation of being incompetent goddaughters because of me!”

Wang Yuan'er was stunned for a moment, seeing her disheartened look, he asked tentatively, "Did Second Uncle let you go too?"

Wang Min'er didn't speak, and her eyes were slightly red.

Wang Yuan'er suddenly felt like a stick in his throat, although Min'er was wrong, but it's too cool for parents to be like this.

"Father became an official after all. Reputation is very important. He also promised me that he would pave the way for Xiuping to start a business in Jixian County. If he manages it properly, he will have no worries about food and clothing in the future." Wang Min'er lowered his head and said.

She spoke plainly, but Wang Yuan'er could still hear the loneliness and sadness in her voice, and couldn't help feeling sad.

"Then when are you leaving?" She asked after a while.

"The boat is scheduled for the morning of the day after tomorrow." Wang Min'er smiled faintly.

Wang Yuan'er said sadly: "If you have made up your mind, then I will not persuade you. When sisters get married, they all practice independently. You must know that you are not alone."

"Besides, don't say those bad things. If you want to come back for a walk in the future, then come back. If you don't make it in a year, after a few years, who will mention these stupid things? How can anyone even talk about the inexplicable gossip? Don't want it anymore, aren't you angry with your family?"

Wang Min'er hummed, feeling a little warm in her heart.

The two of them sat and talked for a long time, from the things they had done in their childhood to the road ahead, calmly, but they seemed to be reluctant to part with each other soon.

When Wang Min'er left in the morning, Wang Yuan'er packed the earthenware, thinking that she had returned to Quanzhou this time, and feared that she might not be able to see her for some years, so she also went to the pier to see her off.

Seeing the boat carrying Wang Min'er go farther and farther, Wang Yuan'er felt a little lost, and Wang Min'er's departure was exactly as she had imagined. She hadn't returned to her mother's house for more than ten years, and it was the old man Wang who passed away that came back to attend the funeral. This is a later story.

After Wang Min'er was sent away, Wang Yuan'er was depressed, sitting in the carriage, no matter how tricked Ren Qiuyun was, his lips curled up slightly.

Qing'er has entered the palace, and now Wang Min'er is unwilling to come back, which is equivalent to losing two girls all at once.

Now that I think about it, the small fights between the sisters when I was young were quite precious.

Wang Yuan'er felt melancholy, lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked out.

The development of Changle Town is getting better and better every year, and the town next door has been merged together, and the official road has been opened up. Houses have been built in many places, and the area occupied is getting bigger and bigger. Better is.

"You are still looking forward to others, but unfortunately, you don't have that kind of blessing, you can't be an official, and you can't become a great climate..."

On the street, a fat woman twisted a man's ear and yelled.

Wang Yuan'er took a closer look, wasn't it Mrs. Xie and Zhou Shunxing?

As soon as the carriage passed by, the two of them also looked over, just looking at Wang Yuan'er, feeling a little embarrassed.

"What are you looking at, what qualifications do you have to watch others, go home!" Seeing that her man's eyes couldn't roll anymore, Mrs. Xie immediately slapped him.

Zhou Shunxing groaned, yelling that the master will divorce you, you wicked woman, and the two of them went away fighting and arguing!
The corner of Wang Yuan'er's mouth curled up slightly, and he walked past the coffin shop again, and saw Uncle Lu was holding a long ruler to measure the wooden boards and teaching his son to measure, that Lu Jinbao smacked his mouth and looked bored.

I also saw the lady from the tailor shop, leaning against the door, gossiping with the shop next door.

Everything seemed so alive.

And this is the town she has been living in. Everyone has changed, and it seems that everyone has not changed.

Wang Yuan'er put down the curtain of the car, closed his eyes slightly, and suddenly wanted to go to pay respects to his parents' graves.

She got excited and asked Qiuyun and the others to get out of the car to buy incense candles, and then went to her parents' cemetery, weeded the weeds, placed offerings, spread a veil beside her parents' cemetery, sat down on the floor, and started chattering .

She didn't return to the mansion until sunset, but she got out of the carriage before entering the door, and she fell limply to the ground without any warning, and passed out.
