Rebirth of Yijia

Chapter 45

As soon as Ran's front foot sent someone to threaten Wang Jiaoniang, Wang Jiaoniang's back foot sued Yijia.

Since the mother-in-law who helped her to find someone in Yangzhou disappeared for no reason, Wang Jiaoniang no longer dared to play tricks.Even if the two skinny horses newly found from Yangzhou flattered her without knowing the truth, she dared not accept it.

Miss Tuesday has already promised her a bright future, she can't act smarter, otherwise, she might end up missing forever just like the woman she knew well.

Yijia asked Qiushuang to get two bank notes of 50 taels each and gave them to Wang Jiaoniang.

He ordered: "You give this bank note to your two sisters. I will arrange for them in these two days. Although you are all in the Zhou family in the future, you are not from the same mansion after all, and you don't have much time to meet. You today If you go out at night, you can stay a little longer and have a good talk."

Wang Jiaoniang couldn't stop nodding.

The eldest lady was aggressive, and the second lady was finally about to make a move.

This kind of talking is to ask her to persuade the two people, tell them to coax the old man well, and play against the old lady.The contract of prostitution for the two of them has long been held in the hands of the second miss, and the second miss is generous in her hands, coercing and luring, not afraid that they will not listen to the second miss.

Wang Jiaoniang is naturally willing to do this, she has already suffered a loss from Yijia, and she has to make up for it elsewhere, the eldest wife wants to manipulate her everywhere, and she doesn't even look at her, how can she be so easy to get along with!
Yijia ordered Qiushuang to find out about her uncle.

Qiushuang is greedy for money and has no background behind her. She and her sister-in-law are now here with all their hearts in Yijia.Yijia even promised that when she got married, she would ask her father to bring Qiushuang's brother and sister-in-law over for her as her dowry.

Qiushuang and her brother and sister-in-law were very happy for such a great event.Yijia no longer has to worry about their loyalty.

Qiushuang has Mrs. Zhang as her support, and Mrs. Zhang is friendly with Lin Er's family. Although Zhou Chengchi will not go to Ran's house, but with Lin Er present, Qiushuang still gets the news that Zhou Chengchi will treat guests at the restaurant two days later.

Zhou Chengchi's sixth-rank manager, firstly, relied on having a younger brother who made sacrificial wine, and secondly, because he was humble in the Guozijian, and he often had small favors such as treating guests and giving gifts, so he was able to sit still all the time.

After next year's Spring Festival, Zhou Chengyan's position might be changed.Zhou Chengyan's mentor is Kang Zhengfang, the chief assistant of the cabinet. Over the years, Zhou Chengyan has been sitting in the Guozijian to offer wine step by step. It is impossible to say that Kang Zhengfang did not have the credit.After the spring of next year, I'm afraid that Zhou Chengyan will join the cabinet and work under Kang Zhengfang's nose.

Zhou Chengchi had been thinking about the location of Guozijian's sacrificial wine for many years.Although it was very difficult, but this time his younger brother was promoted, Zhou Chengchi was more confident.

Yijia can see from his father's daily conversation that his father is not optimistic about his uncle.As far as Yijia is concerned, no matter whether his uncle is a good official or not, Yijia is selfish and does not want him to go further.

Although Guozijian sacrifices wine is a idle job, it is the only way to enter the cabinet.She felt that if the uncle really went further, Ran would imagine that the uncle would join the cabinet.

When people have bigger plans, they will be more courageous.

It was impossible for her to give Ran a chance to hurt Erfang.

So on the day when Zhou Chengchi invited guests, Wang Jiaoniang's two sisters appeared on stage.Yijia gave the order to die, but he didn't know how the two of them operated, but the result was not bad. Although one of them was taken away by a colleague of Zhou Chengchi, one of them followed Zhou Chengchi back to the mansion successfully. .

Mrs. Zhou asked Ran to take a concubine for Zhou Chengchi, but she dragged her back on the grounds of illness. Now that Zhou Chengchi has accepted the concubine by herself, it completely lost Ran's face.

Mrs. Zhou sent someone to investigate the origin of this concubine, and found out that she was the daughter of a poor scholar's family in Beijing, which is not bad considering her identity.Chasing Wenmei away earlier had already strained the relationship between mother and son, and Mrs. Zhou didn't want to make her son unhappy anymore, so she agreed immediately.

Because Qiushuang chose this aunt's new identity well, Yijia praised her very much, and rewarded her ten taels of silver directly.This is almost equal to Qiushuang's monthly period of a year, so although there were some twists and turns when she faked her identity, Qiushuang didn't say anything.

Dafang has a new aunt, although she is an aunt, but because she is the daughter of a scholar, her family background is considered innocent.

Zhou Chengchi was angry because of asking about Mei, the new aunt came in and set up a few tables, and all the colleagues from the Imperial College were invited.

Ran was so angry that she could hardly get out of bed, but she was afraid that Mrs. Zhou and Zhou Chengchi would criticize her, so she had to force herself to go to the upper room and have this meal with her family members.

It stands to reason that an aunt would not be qualified to set a table for her in the backyard. The little Mrs. Song learned to be smart under the encouragement of Mrs. Li, so she took Aunt Wang to Dongfu to find Mrs. Zhou, saying that she was the second roomer last time. Aunt Wang didn't set wine either, this time, taking advantage of the big room to welcome Aunt Hu, she happened to set it up with her.

Although Xiao Song's actions will make Ran's hate, but for Ran, even if you are honestly beaten, she will still hate you.So Yijia was very happy to see this side, and specially urged Xiao Song to make up a set of hair and two pieces of clothing for Aunt Wang.

The second room is not short of this money. If Xiao Song can stand up against Ran, Yijia is willing to give half of her mother's dowry.

Aunt Wang wore new clothes and sat down with Aunt Hu. When she saw Mama Li asking for jewelry and clothing, she got up excitedly on the spot to thank Mrs. Song several times, and thanked Mrs. Zhou once more. .

Mrs. Zhou didn't show any expression on her face, but she was satisfied with what her second daughter-in-law did in her heart.The second son has no heirs, so it is right to take in the aunt. At worst, when the aunt gives birth to a son, he can hold him under his body and raise him.

The aunt of the second room got the reward, and everyone turned to the first room.

Zhou Chengchi's new aunt, surnamed Hu, has a melon-seeded face, red phoenix eyes, and a full waist, and she is worried that she will blow people away when she walks.At this moment, he was looking at Ran's expectantly, waiting for Ran's reward.

Zhou Yihan's eyes were burning, if it wasn't for Ran's grabbing her hand under the table, there would have been a quarrel on the spot.

Ran's face was humiliated by Xiao Song's, so how could she not be angry in her heart.But in front of Mrs. Zhou and Erfang, she couldn't turn her back.I had no choice but to be patient, pulled out a half-worn golden hairpin on my head, and said: "Our first wife is not as good as the second one, but as a wife, I don't treat you badly. This is my favorite golden hairpin. Take it and wear it."

Mrs. Ran was crying poor again in a disguised form, and she secretly sued Mrs. Song in front of Mrs. Zhou.

The old lady Zhou was not angry. No matter how poor the first house is, the second house can't be given to the adoptive aunt, right?Therefore, Ran's words just go in the left ear and out the right ear, and forget it after hearing it.

Aunt Hu looked at Aunt Wang's jewelry with jealousy, but she only had an old gold hairpin when she arrived, so she couldn't feel refreshed.But he didn't dare to express it, he thanked him on the face, but secretly he was thinking of looking for an opportunity to complain to Zhou Chengchi.

This time, the Xiao Song family won a complete victory.

After returning home, instead of going to accompany Zhou Chengyan, he talked with Yijia in Bishuiju for a long time.

Although she hasn't realized it yet, she has long since stopped treating Yijia as a child.He always likes to discuss big and small matters with Yijia, and this is a rare victory against Ran's, so he can't help but want to show off.

However, Yijia was thinking that Aunt Hu might not be enough for Ran to take care of her. She had to think of a way to make Wenmei meet her uncle.

With Aunt Hu as a shield, Erfang really felt more comfortable for a while.

Fast forward to the end of April, Zhou Xinrong, who was married to Tianjin Wei, and his family went to the capital.

Speaking of which, Zhou Xinrong is also a hard-working person.

Because they are only one year younger than Zhou Chengyan, the two elder brothers reached the age of marriage before they could gain a foothold in the capital.The two elder brothers love and respect this younger sister very much, and they were considered one in a hundred to choose a family for her. It was Zhou Chengyan's classmate, Feng Yi from Tianjin Wei.

Although Feng Yi failed the rankings back then, Zhou Chengyan was very optimistic about him, and the Feng family was considered a scholarly family in Tianjin Wei, and both Mrs. Zhou and Zhou Chengchi also thought it would be good for Zhou Xinrong to marry.

But who would have expected that Feng Yi had an accident and ruined his legs before the second Chunwei.Not to mention being an official, I even look down on my own family.In addition, he is not expected to do business, he is like a useless person in Feng's family, and now his parents are still there, so he can just get by.

On the contrary, Zhou Xinrong has a good pair of sons and daughters. His son Feng Zhou is quite like a father, talented and intelligent. He was admitted as a scholar at the age of 13. Zhou Chengyan is also very optimistic about his future.And her daughter, Feng Lian, is not only a talented woman, but also looks very good.

Brothers Zhou Chengyan and Zhou Chengchi took leave together and welcomed their younger sister's family back at the gate of the city.

Except for Zhou Xuan and Zhou Qi who were studying abroad, all the masters of the second bedroom and the eldest room also arrived at the gate early to welcome Zhou Xinrong's family of four.

Seeing the carriage from a distance, Mrs. Zhou sent Cailian, who was waiting beside her, "Go and have a look, go and see, is Xinrong back?"

Cailian responded, and ran over, and ran back with a smile after a while.

"It's the third aunt and the third uncle who are back!"

"Okay, okay!" Mrs. Zhou's eyes were wet, and she was so busy that she stepped forward to greet her, "I'll go to greet you, I'll go to greet you."

"Mother!" The curtain of the carriage was lifted, and a middle-aged woman jumped out of the carriage neatly and walked over quickly.

"Be careful, be careful, watch your step!" Mrs. Zhou hugged her daughter, tears streaming down her face. "Xinrong, good boy, you are tired from the journey!"

Although Tianjin Wei is not far from the capital, but after all, she is married, and Mrs. Zhou can only see her daughter once a year.I've been thinking about it for a long time.

There were tears in Zhou Xinrong's eyes, but he smiled and said, "I'm not tired." Then he turned and called his son and daughter who had just got off the carriage, "Brother Zhou has pity on sister, come quickly and see your grandmother!"

Seeing Feng Zhou and Feng Lian, he hurried over and shouted in unison: "Grandmother!"

Mrs. Zhou patted her grandson's head, then embraced her granddaughter's shoulders, saying hello incessantly.

Feng Zhou saw Yijia through the crowd, and shouted with a smile, "Cousin Jia!"
