Chapter 114

"I don't know how sad Ah Ying has become." Xiang Shi was very worried, "My brother-in-law's official career is just right, but he rebelled against his son, so I had to resign. And Xie Yu, what a crime this child suffered back then! Ah Ying used to I don’t know, but now that I know, I still don’t know how angry I am.”

Du Zhi'an smiled and said, "It's okay. Ah Ying has always been a bit high-minded, so she may not care about her official career. According to her brother-in-law's temperament, resigning from the official position is not bad, and she can roam around the forest." Mu, and Xiang Shi came to Dangyang Road to Anjia to visit Tan Ying.

Tan Ying came out to greet her and asked her to wait for tea in the living room.Du Zhi'an and his wife saw that she had a calm demeanor, not frustrated or angry, so they were a little relieved. "My husband has no official status now." Tan Ying had a smile on her face, "Every day I would urge Shao Er, Brother Xiao, and Brother Qian to study, or go to the neighbors to see Ah Da Ah Er." laid back.

"No, I went to see my grandson again." Tan Ying pursed her lips and smiled, "I always hear how cute Ah Da and Ah Er are, and I envy him very much." When do you want to see your grandson, and when can you visit your neighbors .

Xiang Shi didn't realize it for a while, "You go to see your grandson too." Allow him to see, but you are not allowed to see.Du Zhian glanced at Xiang Shi with a smile, "Ma'am, Uncle Shen and Lord Yuehou must be here too." Ada has returned to Uncle Shen, and Ah Er has returned to Lord Yuehou. It is inconvenient to go.

Xiang Shi just remembered the reason, and smiled at Tan Ying.Tan Ying was about to order someone to go to the neighbors to invite An Zan back, but there was a commotion outside.Tan Ying frowned, and listened carefully, "Don't stop me! Don't stop me!" It was Pu's roar.

"I made my cousin and sister-in-law laugh. This Pu family is always non-stop." Tan Ying said apologetically.Du Zhian let out a cold "hum" and did not speak.This Ah Ying is really kind-hearted, letting an ignorant and stupid woman like Pushi mess around in her back house!
Xiang Shi persuaded Tan Ying, "It seems like this, it should be locked up." Tan Ying sighed, "There are Brother Xiao and Brother Qian. The two children are still young and cannot be separated from their mother." Looking at the children On their face, we can't be too rude to Pushi.

Du Zhi'an couldn't bear it any longer, "It is precisely because the two children are still young that such a shameless woman can't teach them badly!" Those who are close to Zhu are red and those who are close to ink are black. How dare a woman like Pu Shi Keep her close to the baby.No matter how good the child is, she will raise it crookedly.

"Bring her in!" Du Zhi'an ordered, "I'd like to see what she's going to do!" My man did such unreasonable things, how could he still have the nerve to make a fuss?It is the rule of which family that a daughter-in-law makes noise in the mother-in-law's yard?

Tan Ying and Xiang Shi looked at each other helplessly, neither daring to speak.After a while, Pushi was brought in with disheveled hair.

"Madam, Madam, please!" Pu Shi hugged a mahogany jewelry box, knelt on the ground and pleaded, "Madam, please accept this and spare me and my wife."

Xiang shook his head.Who cares that these extraneous things are not good enough? An ignorant and foolish woman actually uses some yellow and white things to flatter her.Tan Ying said gently, "Pu Shi, get up and talk slowly."

Du Zhian wanted to speak, but Xiang Shi pressed him down, "Master, this is Ah Ying's family business." Xiang Shi said in a low voice.Du Zhian snorted, picked up the teacup to appreciate the tea in the cup, the leaves were like flags, the buds were like guns, the color was green, the soup was clear, the aroma was mellow and fresh, it was really good tea.

"Ma'am, this is my sister's dowry back then. We paid it back!" Pu Shi knelt on the ground and opened the jewelry box flatteringly, "Look, it's all in one piece, all in one piece." It's okay, I paid it all back.

A red bracelet came into Tan Ying's eyes.Tan Ying ordered Xiaohong to "take it here!" Xiaohong agreed clearly, quickly took the jewelry box from Pu's hand, and handed it to Tan Ying respectfully.

Tan Ying picked up the bracelet and looked at it for a moment, then lightly pressed the inside of the bracelet, and the surface of the bracelet bounced off, revealing a small hole.Tan Ying took out a silver note from the small hole, looked at it, and said lightly, "This is what I left for Xie Yu for emergency, and there are 1 taels of silver note in it. Pu Shi, why do you two want to pay for a mere 3000 taels?" money, and sold my daughter."

It turns out that the bracelet has a mechanism!Pushi was dumbfounded.No wonder how many times I asked Xie Yu for it, she pushed back and refused, and then I secretly took it while she was taking a bath.Back then, I just saw it was so red and beautiful, but who knew it was... If I had known this, why would I sell my sister?Bearing such a notoriety, he only lost 3000 taels, and there are 1 taels in this bracelet!

"Please go down." Tan Ying's voice was cold, "Your two biological children, one is five years old and the other is three years old. They are still young and have not been taught badly by you. These two grandchildren will be taught by the master himself. For the sake of the children Thinking about it, you have to be honest and do your duty, and don't be wrong." He ordered people to take the dumbfounded Pushi out.

Tan Ying burst into tears.Du Zhi'an said angrily, "Why are you crying? I have been crying since I was a child!"Xiangshi gently wiped away the tears for Tan Ying, "My good sister, don't cry, everything depends on my cousin."

Tan Ying picked up the bracelet and said with a crying voice, "The day before I got married, my uncle gave me this bracelet, and the old man said, 'You take it with you, it's just in case, I hope you will never use it for the rest of your life. on.'I, I actually used it!"

That year, he escaped from the Marquis of Lu'an's Mansion and returned to Uncle Tan's house. Afterwards, he married An Zan and lived an ordinary and steady life.An's family was not rich, so Tan Ying took out the banknotes in the bracelet to supplement the family income, but An Zan insisted on refusing, "Xieyu belongs to the girl's family, so leave it to her as a dowry. It is my job to support the family." Later, Xieyu got married. , As expected, she took out the bank notes in the bracelet and purchased the dowry.

"I gave Xie Yu the bracelet when she got married, and I hoped that she wouldn't need it for the rest of her life..." Tan Ying choked up and couldn't continue.Who would have thought that An Rucheng and the Cai family were so vicious, if Xie Yu was a little weaker, there would have been no bones left.

Du Zhi'an said coldly, "That boy from the Cai family died early, so it's better for him." He was chopped off by a horse back then, and his death was really happy.There is also An Rucheng, who is still in prison and has not been convicted, and Pu's family is still at ease in the back house.Even if the brother-in-law begged for mercy, this black-hearted couple would not be easily spared!
The neighbor, Xie Yu, is discussing with An Zan what to do with An Rucheng and his wife. "After all, I was the father who didn't raise my son well." An Zan blamed himself deeply, "I had been studying abroad when Cheng'er was young, and he was brought up by his grandparents, he was too pampered."

When An Zan was young, he was ordered by his parents to marry Pu's daughter as his wife. Unfortunately, he died of illness less than a year after giving birth to An Rucheng.After that, An Rucheng was raised by his grandparents until An Zan continued to marry Tan Ying. He wanted to take An Rucheng to the capital, and wrote a letter back to his hometown. An's father, An's mother, and Rucheng's nephew, the Pu family, all refused. . "If you're not a biological mother, how can you treat Cheng'er sincerely, and stay in Xijing to rest assured." He refused to let An Rucheng go to the capital, fearing that his stepmother would treat him badly.

"Others can scold him and look down on him, but I can't." An Zan said with guilt on his face, "Cheng'er has finished his hard labor this time and is released from prison. I will teach him personally." Can't shirk responsibility.

"Okay, if you teach him yourself, you will definitely be able to teach him well." Xie Yu agreed.It doesn't matter if you don't agree with it. For a person with such a sense of responsibility, it is impossible for An Zan to let him give up his own son.In fact, normal parents will not give up their children.

"Father, let's send Mrs. Pu to do hard labor too." Xie Yu actively demanded.If Mrs. Pu stays in An's house, it will cause a lot of trouble for Tan Ying.With Tan Ying's temper, she really couldn't bear to tangle with street shrews.

"That's for sure." An Zan said lightly, "Since the husband and wife did something together, they will naturally be punished together." At that time, the two of them will go to hard labor together, and neither can escape.

"Grandfather!" Ah Da ran over and excitedly pulled An Zan up, "Come and see, my brother will laugh!" Without any explanation, he pulled An Zan out to the outer hall.My younger brother used to lie down and spit bubbles, but now he can laugh!It's rare.

Ah Er did know how to smile, and held Yue Pei's arms with a toothless grin, "Dear family, Ah Er was born like you, this smile makes him even more like you!" An Zan was impressed.Yue Pei also laughed, and Ah Er also laughed, the grandfather and grandson really look alike!Alas, it's not that I don't want to fight, but that I really can't fight.

"Master Du and Mrs. Du are here, Mrs. Pu made a fuss, and Mrs. Du cried again." Xiaohong quietly came to ask for an explanation, "Tell me, what should I do?" It's the fierce one who wants to make his wife cry.

Now that he knew that Du Zhi'an and his wife were here, Xie Yu naturally came to see him.After saluting and exchanging greetings, Tan Ying accompanied Xiang Shi in the living room and talked about the daily life, Xie Yu accompanied Du Zhian to drink tea under the flower stand in the courtyard.

"Xie Yu, did you deliberately reveal what happened to An Rucheng?" Du Zhi'an asked leisurely, leaning on the grand master's chair.

"He bumped into it himself." Jie Yu smiled and refused to admit it, "Uncle, I didn't mean to make Dad resign."

The uncle and nephew looked at each other and smiled knowingly. "Ghost spirit." Du Zhian scolded with a smile, "I still haven't told my uncle the truth."

Xie Yu personally continued the hot tea for Du Zhi'an, "Uncle, my father has been working hard on re-accounting the fields, and has achieved little success. What about after the re-accounting? I'm afraid the emperor will follow the example of the previous dynasty and implement a whipping method. At that time, my dad was still in the lead."

Du Zhian shook his head with a smile, how did my brother-in-law raise such a smart daughter?Xie Yu's expression became solemn, "This is really a great thing for the benefit of the country and the people. My father will definitely go all out and die. Then, what will happen to him?"

Du Zhi'an straightened up and stared fixedly at Xie Yu.Xie Yu met his gaze calmly, "Uncle, my father is not smooth enough to be an official, and he is not sophisticated enough to be a man of the world. He acts on the basis of his conscience and speaks the truth. But many people in this world, many things, talk It's not reason, it's just interests, it's just interests."

In the Hall of Qinzheng, the emperor raised his head from the hill-like memorial, and took a breath for a while.Dr. Hu courteously delivered the ginseng soup, "The emperor has worked hard, and it is necessary to take supplements." The emperor cooperated very much, took the ginseng soup and drank it down.

"... Mr. An raises his youngest son and two grandchildren at home every day, and often visits and plays with his grandson at Zhang's house. The three families of Zhang, An, and Shen are very happy." Dr. Hu reported his work dutifully.

The emperor was upset.Dare to feel that I, the emperor, is still working hard, you all are really free!Let’s not talk about Shen Mai, he only has a false title and no actual title; An Zan, how dare you give up the pick halfway!
"Master An has made up his mind. He just waits for the eldest son to be released from prison after serving his service. He wants to teach the eldest son himself, and he doesn't care about anything else. He said, what else can a person do if he can't teach his son well?" the emperor thought of the time before Doctor Hu's return, the more he thought about it, the angrier he became.An Zan, such a capable and loyal courtier, resigned because of his worthless son!

"What happened to An Rucheng?" The emperor was very angry at An Rucheng as the culprit.Dr. Hu cautiously replied, "According to the law, selling a good man is cheap, and he should be hanged. Because An Rucheng failed, the governor of Shuntian Prefecture sentenced him to ten years of hard labor."

No matter how many years of hard labor he has served, it will not be worth the crime!The emperor hated it in his heart.Sell ​​understanding language?What do you think.

Xie Yu, she is comfortable now.She is surrounded by a foolish and obedient husband-in-law, on the left is Shen Mai who only holds a false title but not a real job, and on the right is An Zan who has resigned from office and never worked. She is living a beautiful life.

An Jieyu, you don't want to be too leisurely.

During the summer solstice, Shen stepped into the palace to receive the banquet. By chance, he rescued the mischievous eldest prince who climbed to the top of the tree.The emperor was overjoyed, and issued a decree to commend him, and made Dongchang Bo the Marquis of Dongchang.These are nothing, what matters is the next sentence, "Nian Dongchang Marquis Shen Mai is old and childless, Xu's heir and adopted son will inherit the title."
