Chapter 52
After tossing and tossing all day, although Xu Jinfeng and Mrs. Lu stayed in the ancestral house, but after all, they were not forgiving, so they went to rest in the evening.Mrs. Li called Xu Xiaoxian and Mrs. Zheng to go over, dismissed the servants, and the three of them sat silently under the bright candlelight.
"You guys gave the unclean medicine?" Li's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and he deliberately endured it for a day, and now he finally stopped holding back and covering it up.
Xu Xiaoxian coughed, but still concealed himself: "What is the old lady talking about?"
"If you had calmed down at that time and didn't correct Fifth Miss. If Fifth Miss was not so filial and didn't want to take the blame for you after discovering that it was you who did it. Maybe you can push it to someone else and just take a servant to take the blame. Even if you want to push it on the fourth girl, it's not impossible. But you just pushed it on her, she is your biological daughter." Li accused sharply.
Thinking of the scene at that time, Zheng's red eyes shed tears again: "At this point, don't hide it from the old lady. That's right, the medicine was given by me and the third master. We want the fifth girl to replace the fourth girl. Xidu, but you have not allowed it. We thought that if the reputation of the fourth girl was ruined, the fifth girl would naturally be able to replace it. It just so happened that something like that happened to the eldest girl of the Pinghe Fang family. If the fourth girl and Fang Cooking cooked rice with Ruisheng rice not only achieves the goal, but also prevents the marriage between Lian Ping and Miss Fang, and Lian Ping can marry a wife from a wealthy family."
The son of one family marries the daughter of another family, and the son of the other family marries the daughter of this family, which is called a marriage exchange.Some families did this to save some dowry and dowry in this kind of exchange, and also to get closer to each other. A noble family like the Xu family would not do such a thing.
Therefore, there can only be one marriage between the Fang family and the Xu family.If Xu Jiatong and Fang Rui were designed by them, it would be much more serious than Xu Lianping and Fang Xinniang just giving each other secretly, and if Xu Jiatong lost his virginity, he would naturally not be able to enter the palace for election.In this way, it will be Xu Jiatong and Fang Rui who will get married, and the marriage between Xu Lianping and Fang Xinniang can only be abandoned.
As for Fang Rui, he originally thought that it would be difficult for him to marry a girl from a high family, so he tried every means to get his sister to marry a high family.If he could marry Xu Jiatong, with an old man like Xu Xiaoxian, he would probably not object.
"The medicine has obviously been thrown away. Someone must have picked it up or found it, so they put it in Miss Wu's place. Old lady, my mother, you shouldn't settle accounts with us at this time, you should think about it." Thinking of Si Yatou and the old woman behind her, this matter has nothing to do with them. A fledgling little girl and an old woman who have been away from the ancestral house for more than ten years still have such ability." Xu Xiaoxian He said furiously, today he was extremely disappointed with Mrs. Li.
Mrs. Li smiled angrily, pointed at the two of them trembling all over and said, "Yes, they must be responsible for this matter. But it's not their fault, you are too stupid! You want Miss Wu to replace you, there are other ways , but you chose the dirtiest one. Leave a little room for doing things. If you do this, where will you put the face of the Xu clan, and where will you put yourself once the incident happens! The fifth girl has already left It’s all over the west, wouldn’t it be better to slowly figure it out? Even if things are done, you let the fifth girl have such a shameless sister, her face will be radiant? Stupid, stupid!”
Xu Xiaoxian was also angry, and swept down the tea cup at hand with one sleeve: "You don't care about anything, you don't do anything, what should we do? Watch your children become stepping stones for others, or be stepped on by the second brother forever." Underfoot? Why? Just because he is older than me? You have been eccentric since you were a child, don’t forget that the second brother has taken care of you all these years, and we are the ones who serve you with tea and water, and save you in the morning and evening!"
"Master, don't say a few words, the old lady is doing it for your own good, and we decided this matter too hastily." Mrs. Zheng pulled Xu Xiaoxian and advised.
Mrs. Li sighed, sat upright again, and glared at Mrs. Zheng: "And you, too, are ignorant. Yes, you have served me these years, treating me like a decent mother and mother-in-law. But think about it carefully, what you do, you can't do it if you change someone in your seat? Clothes and food, calling your slaves and maidservants, this is your confidence, without these you can still be willing to serve me. The old lady who doesn't speak well?"
Zheng's face was already uncomfortable, and Xu Xiaoxian's face was even more uneasy, he said at the top of his voice: "What are you talking about, you are my biological mother, others care about you not being a legitimate wife, can I not?" Do you want to give you a retirement pension?"
"Come on, third child, knowing your son is better than your mother. I still don't know what kind of virtue you are? Without everything you have right now, you will be miserable in three days. Don't say that you will end up giving me a pension. You can't even support your own wife and children. What can you do? If you can't do anything, tell me, where do all the properties under your name come from?" Li asked.
Speaking of this, Xu Xiaoxian stopped pretending and simply shameless: "It was passed down to me by my father, and it was given to me by my second brother. Don't you just want to say that I need to rely on my second brother? Yes, there is no second brother." Brother wouldn’t be where I am today, but I’ve endured enough. If I hadn’t worked hard in Kunshan all these years, and the clan was in chaos, his face would have been radiant? Even if I owe him, I still have to pay it back. almost."
When Xu Xiaoxian was arguing, Mrs. Li calmed down completely and looked at him coldly: "Even if you pay it off, you plan to make a clean break in the future, starve to death without eating the food you gave, and never beg him or touch him again? You If you have this kind of backbone, fine, you don't have to worry about him any more, and make a fortune on your own, let alone me, the lonely old woman, even the entire Xu clan will applaud you. You should do it, and I will do it tomorrow Let the elders of the clan explain this matter."
"I...I..." When Xu Xiaoxian heard that he was going to be serious, his arrogance immediately went down, and Mrs. Zheng also persuaded him in a low voice behind him.
Mrs. Li looked at Mrs. Zheng, and said with a serious expression: "And you, not only did you not stop him from committing crimes, but you also worried that the world would not be chaotic. You are a woman, and you are the one who owns this ancestral house. You have a careful mind. The fourth girl is the biological daughter of the second child. Even if they are estranged and discordant, they are still father and daughter. If you ruin the face of the fourth girl, you are slapping the second child in the face. It depends on the owner to beat a dog. Even if it is Lin Shi, if you know that you do this, she will be ashamed, and she will not be grateful for you helping her remove the thorn in her flesh."
Xu Xiaoxian still wanted to argue, but was held back by Mrs. Zheng, who first succumbed and said: "The old lady is right, we shouldn't be tempted by the fifth girl. But let's just watch our jewel in the palm of my hand being killed by such a person in a private house." How can we be willing to compare with the grown-up wild girl..."
