Reborn I want to be a giant

Chapter 64
Mrs. Cao never came back to see her son empty-handed. Today, she brought body-boosting soup, "Why does it look familiar?" As soon as she entered the door, she was attracted by two large wooden boxes on the table.

The husband and the eldest son have been running around all year round, busy with family affairs, the second son is an official in Jiangzhou, and the youngest son is in the family in Jinling, so it is inevitable that the Cao family will pay more attention to him.I heard that in the Jinling long-distance race a while ago, her son cooperated with Wu Ying's Lianghexuan and made a lot of money. She was so worried that she didn't sleep well all night.Just after dawn, people went to the third child's yard to ask him if he was awake.

"Ma'am, this is the small wine table sold by the Cheng family." The maid beside Cao shi reminded softly.

Cao Shi paused for a moment, and then remembered the noisy topic in Jinling these days. She also heard that in the gambling shop, this box can be worth 1000 taels of cash.I didn't expect that my son would have two sets of things that were so fiercely fought over.

While drinking the tonic soup, Jing Yuanze stared at them from the corner of his eye, fearing that some ignorant people would open the box blindly and damage the box.

Seeing his son's appearance, Mrs. Cao knew what he was thinking, so she didn't really touch it. She waited for the maid to fix the chair and spread the cushions before sitting down opposite him. Her face was calm, but it wasn't because of her son.

"Your aunt has a letter. Your grandmother called me to talk for a while." Thinking of the contents of the letter, she stirred the handkerchief irritably.

Jing Yuanze knew what the atmosphere of this exchange between his mother and grandmother would be without guessing, "If you have heard it, let it be, what are you going to do with your heart?"

Cao's face was full of sadness, and now the only son in this family who can listen to her bitterness, so he poured out what her mother-in-law said to her, "You know the life experience of the Cheng family brothers and sisters, they were expelled from the family by Liang Guogong's mansion. Brothers and sisters surnamed Gu. Your aunt is well-informed, but she was instigated by some evil plan and sent a letter asking us to vent her anger on her. Your grandmother didn't want to do it herself, so she told Wei Niang about her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law all morning."

Her mother-in-law's style of life has been consistent for decades, and the virtuous name has been borne by herself, and the notorious one is the back of their second wife.If they complained a little bit, this old godly woman would be able to cry and scold endlessly, and she especially liked to poke their family by saying that if the big house hadn't disappeared, they would get their second house to inherit the ancestral property.

Jing Yuanze drank up the soup, waved his hands casually, and asked all the servants to go out.

"Listen to me, no matter how much grandma and aunt make trouble about this matter, you have to pretend to be deaf and dumb. I'll talk back to my father and brother."

Mrs. Cao listens to her youngest son the most, but her mother-in-law is under a lot of pressure.Thinking that she would have to look at her mother-in-law's face every morning and evening, she wanted to pretend to be sick for a while.Or go back to her mother's house to play for a few days.

"By the way, mother heard that you have made a lot of money these days." She deliberately lowered her voice, worrying that the partition wall had ears, "Last night, there was someone at your grandmother's side. Mother is afraid that she will come here soon. You can put Cover up your little private property."

Cao's relationship with her mother-in-law Wen's is similar to that of most mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in the world.Although the Wen family came from the Wen family, the first family in Hangzhou, before she got married, her parents' house was separated from the main family.Mrs. Cao once heard her husband Jing Chengye say that Wen's family has many brothers, so her dowry back then was far less than that of daughters from other aristocratic families in Hangzhou.After arriving at the Jing family, in order to maintain the face of the daughter of the aristocratic family, she slapped her face swollen to pretend to be fat for the first few years. After her mother-in-law got the power of housekeeper, she relaxed a little.

And in the past few decades of being married to the Jing family, the Wen family has used the wealth of the Jing family to help and subsidize several brothers.Wen's own private treasury, which was about to dry up, also filled up after she started to take care of the family.But even when life got better, she didn't get rid of the habit of scratching her second room every chance she got.

Mrs. Cao was quite angry about this matter. When she was young, she couldn't help asking her husband if it was Wen's birth. Both of them were young at that time, and Jing Chengye couldn't help being wronged. The couple often questioned this matter in bed.

Jing Yuanze actually didn't care about that small amount of money. To put it bluntly, at Wen's age, how many years can he take advantage of?But he is just an ordinary person, he treats whoever treats him well.The only ones who treat him as a treasure are his own parents, of course he is more willing to accept their suggestions.

"Oh."

Cao's restless person entered his son's house, feeling irritable, and began to tidy him up. Jing Yuanze had long been accustomed to her troubled appearance, and wondered whether to send her back to her mother's house in Yangzhou for a while to hide. After a while, I will pick her up after my father and brother return to Jinling.

"No, if we pretend to be deaf and dumb, she might do something behind my back and fall on top of our second room. Mother knows that you have some contacts with that Miss Cheng family, and you will become enemies by then..." The more she thought about it Worse.

"Mother is right, the son will pay attention to grandma's side."

Cao shi reluctantly nodded, still preoccupied, folded a set of clothes several times without paying attention.

"Mother, is Cousin Hui discussing relatives with some Cang family in Tanzhou? Tanzhou is far away from mountains and rivers, and I don't know how many years it will be until we see each other. Why don't you go back tomorrow and check for her. Are you Do you often say that my eldest aunt has bad eyesight?" Jing Yuanze was worried that Cao was going to get sick like this.

Cao Shi hesitated to speak, but finally nodded.She really can't help her son at home, and as a daughter-in-law, she must obey her mother-in-law.Go out and hide for a while.

Early the next morning, Mrs. Cao left Jing's house in light clothes, and went straight to Yangzhou without stopping, returning to her mother's house to hide from the disaster.And as soon as she left the city gate, Wen's repented, but she would lose her dignity if she chased her back, and would be gossiped behind her back by the ladies of the family, so she could only give up resentfully.Anyway, there is one person in the second room at home.

"It's not been easy for your aunt these years." The well-maintained hands tightly held Jing Yuanze's hand, but she couldn't tell how difficult it was for her daughter.

"Grandmother hasn't had it easy these years." Jing Yuanze looked like a filial grandmother who has worked hard for you.

There was a moment of embarrassment on Wen's face, and he continued: "Your uncle finally made it through and got an important position in Beijing. He was entangled by the abandoned wife of the Gu family, which disturbed the house. Grandma couldn't bear to think about how wronged your aunt was. "Speaking and wiping away tears.

"Uncle is a good student to settle this matter, otherwise it will be bad for the future." Jing Yuanze followed with a sigh.

Wen's heart wondered, did he not hint clearly enough, or was this kid too stupid to turn around? "Don't blame your uncle too much. After all, he is an official in the court. There are so many eyes on the Song family in the capital. He can't do whatever he wants." The Wen family is very clear. The family is not the opponent of the Chen family, so it is clear that the unlucky decision is myself.

"Uncle is not easy..." Jing Yuanze still pretended not to understand.

Wen's expression froze for a moment, and he tried his best to suppress his temper, "Your aunt is too soft-hearted. If you ask grandma, it's not easy for Chen to retreat. As long as you catch her weakness, forgive her and dare not go to your uncle again." Putting on a show."

Jing Yuanze nodded numbly, "Yes, aunt should come up with some means."

Wen thought that this kid would follow her words and ask what Chen's weakness was, but he didn't expect that the other party still didn't understand what she meant.She was so angry that her chest was tight and painful.

After the grandparents and grandson broke up unhappy, Wen shi drank the calming medicine soup sent by his mother-in-law before recovering.There's nothing else I don't understand, the second room just doesn't intend to help her daughter vent her anger.Thinking of this, she rarely complained about her disappointing daughter.

Back then, she exhausted all her means and managed to marry into the Song family. Unexpectedly, in the past ten years, she had two children, and Song Shaoxi's heart was still not grasped at all.Wen's really couldn't figure out how he could give birth to such a useless daughter.

A girl's greeting came from outside the door, interrupting Wen's thoughts.

Wen shi shunned her chest and put on her grandmother's posture before letting the maid invite him in.

Jing Yingyao is the concubine's daughter of the big house, and the only daughter in the family who has not yet left the cabinet.I just got married at the beginning of the year, because I have no father or mother, the second wife Cao didn't dare to take care of it, and the old lady Wen didn't care, so the marriage has not been settled yet.

Jing Yingyao had the typical appearance of a Jiangnan woman. If she didn't have the name of a concubine, with the status of the Jing family, it would not be difficult to find a good marriage with a well-matched family.But in this era, most of the concubine's daughters in Jiangnan aristocratic families were married to offshoots of the big clan or were also descendants of concubines who had not been separated from the clan.

"Grandmother, Yao'er heard a letter from my aunt."

Wen Shi nodded perfunctorily.

"Speaking of which, since my aunt got married, Yao'er has never had the chance to get close to her. I don't know how my aunt has been doing these past few years?" Jing Yingyao met Jing when she was young, and now it has been more than ten years, she can't think about it. Think about what the other person looks like.

Although Wen shi likes the eldest son, it doesn't mean that he likes the concubine daughter of the eldest son. Moreover, the birth mother of this concubine daughter has a bad reputation. Jing Yingyao looks almost like her biological mother. Every time Wen shi sees this granddaughter, she will think of that drugged daughter. The Beppu maid who climbed into his eldest son's bed.

"Since you are married, you will naturally have to rely on your own ability to live your life. Good or bad, you have to grit your teeth to survive." She seemed to think of herself when she was young.

Jing Yingyao picked up a soft hammer from the small table next to her, and loosened Wen's legs one by one, "Grandmother doesn't know, it's spread all over the world, the brother and sister surnamed Cheng who opened the restaurant came from Liang Guogong's mansion, I heard that they made a big mistake and were expelled from the family. The capital couldn't tolerate them, so they quietly changed their names to Yi and came to Jinling to fish in troubled waters."

"Coincidentally, my granddaughter also heard that the brother and sister had a shameless biological mother who... unexpectedly..." The girl was ashamed to speak.

Wen's glanced at her, "What?"

Jing Yingyao hesitated to speak, "Don't be angry when my granddaughter tells you."

No need Jing Yingyao to learn the rumors outside, she just pretended to see what this granddaughter was up to.

"Grandma, I haven't experienced anything at my age, so you just say it." Wen took a sip of the tea offered by the maid.

Jing Yingyao quietly looked at the old lady's expression, but she didn't see anything unusual, so she said: "It is said that the biological mother of the brothers and sisters of the Cheng family is pestering my uncle shamelessly in the capital, and that my uncle is going to divorce my aunt, and even my cousins They also sent them back to Jinling together, and married the Chen family. They also said that the Song and Chen families originally intended to marry each other, but it was my aunt who broke them up, and my aunt Jiu took the magpie's nest..."

"Full of nonsense!" Even though she already knew the rumors outside, Wen was still angry at Jing Yingyao's words.Of course, there is also a little guilty conscience inside.

Jing Yingyao knelt down, "Grandmother, aunt and uncle, and the reputation of our Jing family have all been ruined by them. You can't just ignore it. If this continues, granddaughter... I'm afraid the only way to survive is to be a sister-in-law." "There is a married woman with a bad reputation in the family, which will affect the marriages of other daughters to some extent. This is especially common in the rigid marriage atmosphere of the aristocratic family.

Wen shi regained her breath, staring at the granddaughter who was kneeling in front of her, not daring to raise her head, sobbing silently, suddenly remembered the attitude of the second room... "Now your second uncle and aunt are not at home, and your third brother is all about money. Grandma is old It’s not easy to move, let alone compete with others. If there are people around to help you, it’s more than that. Grandma promises you that when these rumors are gone, she will find you a good marriage. You will stay at home with grandma for two more year..."

Jing Yingyao hurriedly hugged Wen's leg, "How could grandma say such hurtful words, my granddaughter is stupid, but my granddaughter loves her grandmother no less than others, and if grandma wants her granddaughter to fight, it's not a matter of saying a word. "

Wen shi sighed and helped her up, "I don't want this huge Jing family, but you, the child, feel sorry for grandma."
