Mu Huagui

Chapter 8
Since the morning, relatives from far and near have come to say hello to the old lady, and the juniors in the mansion even got dressed early in the morning and went to Jinhua Residence early to say hello.

Chen Jiao'er even brought cherries to wait outside Jinhua Residence early in the morning. At the door stood the Fourth Wife and her two daughters, Sixth Miss Chen Qilu, and Seventh Miss Chen Qisi. The eldest was only nine years old, and the youngest was only six years old. He hurriedly welcomed everyone in, and said in a low voice, "The old lady just got up and is still washing, please wait a little while for the fourth wife and young ladies."

The fourth wife laughed and said, "It's not right for us to be juniors. Mom can just go to work, I'm here."

"You are the only one in this mansion who is capable. I heard you chattering early in the morning, and quickly brought the children in." The voice of the old lady came from the back room.

"Yes." The fourth wife smiled and led Chen Jiao'er and the sixth and seventh misses to follow, saluted one by one, and accepted the old lady's red envelope.The fourth wife rolled her eyes and said, "Looking forward to the stars and looking forward to the moon, I just hope that I can come to my mother's place to enjoy the autumn wind in the first year of the year. If anyone has more than me, I will roll around today and won't leave."

"You rascal, it's good that I didn't miss you that time, and no one can do without you, I'm afraid I know that your natal family is coming, and I have someone to support me." The old lady laughed to herself , it seems that I like the fourth wife very much.

The fourth wife is the niece of the old lady's natal family. When she came to the mansion as a guest, the old lady loved her for her lively temperament and would make fun of her.At that time, the fourth young master happened to be at the age of marriage, so he married the master. The fourth young master was a dull person, and he didn't talk much to his family, so it complemented each other with a flower of interpretation.

Without saying a few words, the first lady brought her daughter Qiluo and concubine Qihong, the second lady brought Qishan, the third wife and the fifth wife all got together.A room full of women, suddenly the whole Jinhuaju was full of laughter and chatter, the sound of clinking jade pendants rubbing against dresses, all kinds of rouge powders and the greetings of Yingying Yanyan were intertwined.

It was so easy to greet and say hello to each other. After the ceremony, people sat down according to seniority, and someone came to report. The relatives of the old lady's natal family and the old relatives of the Chen family all started to pay their respects one by one.

The five wives and wives were assigned to receive the guests according to their relatives and distances, and they were not chaotic in their busy schedule, showing the grandeur of a wealthy family.

Chen Jiao'er sat alone in the corner, with Cherry standing next to her. There were many people coming but no one was interested in her.She was also happy to put on a smiling face, and sat aside to observe carefully.

"Old madam, the Lin family wants to come in and give you a kiss." Qin's mother frowned inaudibly.

The old lady snorted coldly, "She will come to find me dirty, that's all, let her have a nibble outside the courtyard and go."

For no reason, Chen Jiao'er felt a slight pain in her heart, she followed Qin's mother's eyes, and her body trembled in shock.Fortunately, there were so many people and so many voices in the room, even Cherry was too distracted to look at other people's jewelry and clothes, and didn't notice her changes at all.

Clutching the handkerchief tightly, he told himself over and over again to stay calm.It is useless to rush over to kill her now, the real enemy is still behind her.You can't just try to have fun for a while, you have to find out the enemies one by one, and then defeat them one by one.She's just an old woman who can clean up anytime, be calm, must be calm.

The woman kneeling outside the door cruelly killed all the servants on the way to Beijing because of her own selfish interests.Although she escaped fortunately, she still did not escape the tragic fate, and was sold into the palace as a slave for ten years.

After finally getting through the days, the prince aroused himself one day, and held a seminar on scriptures in the courtyard, and invited many literati, or slightly famous school scholars, to come to talk about scriptures and Buddhism.On this day, she saw Lin Zhicong, the nanny's son, sitting in a group of people talking loudly, and his high spirits deeply hurt her eyes.

For a moment of pleasure, she poured poison into his tea.Unexpectedly, Lin Zhicong had already recognized her identity.He even directly blocked her on the road, snatched the hairpin from her head, and took it with confidence to ask the eldest son to propose marriage.

Not only did Shizi not punish her, but he also said that this was an elegant thing, and he wanted to marry her into the Lin family.Looking at everyone's dodging eyes and pointing and whispering, she knew that she had suffered a crushing defeat and there was no room for turning back.

It is impossible for her to marry into the Lin family, even if her name is associated with the Lin family, it is absolutely impossible.He threw himself into the well in a moment of anger, but he didn't expect to see this woman in Chen's residence under someone else's name today.Including the Chen family sitting here, all of them are her enemies, all of them.

His thin body trembled with anger, staring at the woman closely, wishing he could dig a hole in her body, wishing he could rush out and grab her neck tightly, asking her if she still remembered who she was .

"Miss, what's the matter with you." Chen Jiao'er's painful look finally attracted Cherry's attention, she lowered her head to cover the lady's face, and asked cautiously.

Cherry's voice brought Chen Jiao'er back to reality, she forced a smile, squeezed Cherry's hand and said, "I'm fine, I just miss my father and mother."

She can no longer be impulsive, nor can she be emotional.The death in her previous life was enough to teach her that the only way to deal with such people is to be more vicious than them and kill her with one blow.Otherwise, they are like a snake, which will come out and bite you when you don't expect it.

Let you live happily for a few more days. I will make you pay the price for whatever means I have tried in my life.

After drinking too much outside and saying auspicious words, he took the kind of purse that the mansion gave to servants as rewards.The Lin family's face was livid with anger, and they held back their anger and put the purse containing the rewards in their arms.

When he walked out, he was still resentful, because his family had long since left their citizenship, and they were not their slaves.The husband is now guarding his own shop, living a carefree life.My son entered the college and was about to take the three-year scientific examination. If he passed the examination, he might be a wife for the rest of his life.

If it hadn't been for her son's urging to maintain a good relationship with the Chen family, she wouldn't want to be so angry.

"It's so lively today." After coming to Chen's house for several years, because the young lady has been in poor health, she didn't go out of the yard. This year is the real Chinese New Year together. Cherry's eyes are not enough to look happy.

"The one from the Lin family just now was so strange. Even the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law who were let out by the old lady were let into the inner room when they came back to lick their heads. She doesn't look like a servant, so why did she let her lick her head outside and then leave. "Chen Jiao'er opened her eyes wide and said pretending to be curious.

Zhihua, who was refilling the water, heard it clearly, looked around, saw that no one was paying attention, and said, "Miss Biao doesn't know, this Lin family was originally a servant of an official family next to our family. So it's gone, they and a few servants escorted the daughter of the Chen family to go to Beijing to join our old lady."

"It turned out that there was water robbery, and the young lady and the servants were gone, but their family lived well. The old lady never liked them, but they were nice. They have been eating their heads every year, and they are thick-skinned."

"That's how it is. Thank you, Sister Zhihua, for clarifying the confusion." Chen Jiao'er thanked Zhihua, and then touched a purse that had been prepared and sent it up.

"Thank you Miss Biao for the reward." Zhi Hua took it generously with a smile.For the current people, they only hope to get a few more rewards during the Chinese New Year and save some money for themselves. This is why she is willing to explain Chen Jiao'er's doubts in the hall.

The luncheon was held in the Jinhua Residence, and the real reunion banquet had to wait for the master and the young masters to hold it together in the main room at night. At this moment, they were all relatives and female relatives in the mansion.

"I took a look, and the eldest lady is the most blessed in our mansion. She has sons and daughters. I'm afraid the younger ones are not as good as us." As the elder sister-in-law, she didn't want to see the fourth wife showing off at the table, so she got involved in the matter of inheriting the family.Overtly and secretly ridiculed that the fourth wife and the fifth wife did not have a son to carry on the family line of the Chen family.

The fourth wife is not a fuel-efficient lamp, so she couldn't help but retorted.

After hearing what the fourth wife said, everyone at the table had different expressions, some of them were shallow, and couldn't help pinching their handkerchiefs and laughing.But the doctor was so angry that he fell on his back.

It turns out that the first and second masters in the mansion are both the wife's concubine's sons, and the third, fourth and fifth masters are all concubines.The eldest lady has two sons and four daughters, among them, the third young master who pushed Chen Jiao'er into the tree was the third young master born by the eldest lady, and the third young lady who had a mother and compatriot was Chen Qiluo.The eldest lady and the second lady who were born by the concubine are married, and the fourth young master and the fifth lady are both born by Aunt Yu.

The second wife's two sons are the eldest son Chen Ziping and the second son Chen Zikang, and the fourth daughter Chen Qishan.

The third wife has only one legitimate son, the fifth young master, Chen Ziyang, and the fourth wife has only two daughters born by the legitimate son. The fifth wife has been married into the Chen family for two years and has never had a child.

Counting it, apart from the eldest house, the other four houses in the Chen residence have no sons and daughters. This is why the fourth wife mocked the eldest lady. The meaning is very clear. I did not have a son, but my husband can afford to wait, and I would rather wait for a concubine. The eldest son does not want others to live.

It's like the eldest lady, who became a mother immediately after marrying in, and has two daughters from concubines waiting to make things difficult for her.When the third young master was born, the eldest master carried Aunt Yu into the house, and the fourth young master was born the next year.Fortunately, after all these years, I married off the two concubines, but Aunt Yu's son and daughter are getting more and more liked by the Elder Master, and they are about to threaten her.

This heart disease was exposed at this time. The eldest lady hated the fourth wife very much, but she also knew that no matter how well she spoke, she could not compare with the eloquent fourth wife, so she simply stopped talking.He only looked at the people on the table with hatred, and was so angry that he poured down a cup of herbal tea.

Back then, if her brother hadn't blown Chen Desheng up in front of her, she wouldn't have met him at her brother's house. She could only blame herself for listening to men's smooth talk.She clearly said that she would only be good to herself for the rest of her life, but she was seduced into bed by that bitch in just a few years.
