492. Imperial Capital Four Four

Chapter 492

The Jiang family helped Mr. Hu because of the Jiang family's sake, because of the face of Hu Wen and Hu Shanchang. Moreover, Mr. Hu was dismissed from office in the end, but Mr. Su Shangshu did not pursue the matters of Mr. Hu's office in view of the face of the Jiang family. Otherwise, even Su Erlang knew that such bribery cases could never be caused by bribery once. Just like Mrs. Hu's collection of money, is this the first time? It is a blessing that this matter has not been investigated in depth and has been dismissed from office.

The Jiang family thought that the lawsuit was over, and the Hu family would probably return to his hometown soon. Because it is the Qianqiu Festival of the Empress Dowager, the He family and Shen family of Jiang family are all in the fifth or fifth ranks or above. In the imperial capital, when they reach the fifth rank, they are qualified to offer a Qianqiu gift to the Empress Dowager Qianqiu. He Zijin has been busy with this matter and has no time to care about the Hu family. Anyway, there are young couples of Gong Yuan in Chongyang. According to He Zijin's opinion, the subsequent follow-up is nothing more than the Hu family's house to return to his hometown to send some money to Yicheng. He Zijin also asked Su Bing to prepare a Yicheng in advance, and when the Hu family returns to his hometown, it is his own wish.

However, he had been waiting for the Queen Mother's Qianqiu Festival to end, and He Zijin had never heard of the Hu family going back to his hometown. However, Mrs. Hu brought her daughter-in-law and granddaughter-in-law to speak. The man came to the door with him on his own initiative. He Zijin also greeted him with a smile and said something about reunion after a long time. When he met Su Bing, he knew that this was Aye's wife. Mrs. Hu praised and praised him, praised and praised him, and took off a pair of white jade bracelets on his wrist to give Su Bing a meeting gift. The bracelet was white all over, without any flaws. Even if Su Bing had a background like this, he knew that the bracelet was precious and difficult to take it easily.

However, Mrs. Hu insisted on giving it to him, so He Zijin asked her daughter-in-law to pick her up.

Su Bing thanked Mrs. Hu. Mrs. Hu then talked about the house holding a banquet and wanted to invite He Zijin and his family to have a drink.

Seeing that the Hu family deliberately put their days on holidays, He Zijin really refused, so he had to respond.

After putting down the post, Mrs. Hu looked at Gong Yuan with a loving face and smiled, "Awen's child has been missing for many years. Now I am really happy to see Chongyang and his wife. I'm going to be in my family. I'm not hiding the banquet at home. We haven't been to the imperial capital for a long time and don't know much about the popular chef dishes in the imperial capital. If Chongyang's wife has nothing to do, why would you help your uncle and sister-in-law and teach them too."

Gong Yuan couldn't sit still when she said this, so she quickly stood up and said, "Grandma likes me, so I'll go and fight my uncle and sister-in-law. I'm only a few years old, and if I'm lucky enough to listen to the teachings of my elders, it's my blessing."

He Zijin was not very happy to hear Mrs. Hu Wen. Originally, Hu Wen was not Mrs. Hu. Mrs. Hu was very ordinary to Hu Wen and the third girl back then. Now he said these sarcastic words. If he was tricky, he would have to say that he would be a squeezing wife. He Zijin smiled and said to Gong Yuan, "Your wife is just joking. This is the first time she has seen you and she likes you. It is rare that grandparents and grandchildren meet in the imperial capital. Such a happy event requires you to write a letter to your old lady, and the great master said it." He said to Mrs. Hu, "We were in Beichang Mansion first. The old lady often talked about the eldest lady, and she missed you very much."

He Zijin is a younger generation than Mrs. Hu, but not to mention what Mrs. Hu does, even this is not very good at listening. He Zijin is smiling, and she hits the heart of Mrs. Hu’s heart with one sentence. Mrs. Hu’s intimacy even feels a little uncomfortable. She quickly said, “Yes, we are outside, and we always care about the old lady and the great master.” He hurriedly asked the old lady again, and the great master was in good health.

He Zijin smiled, "The two old men are very tough, just thinking about a few wives and masters."

He Zijin asked Gong Yuan, "Master, the master is in a hurry and has a lot of things to do first. You are the granddaughter-in-law. When you meet him this time, can you give him a greeting to the master?"

Gong Yuan said, "As Godmother said, the wife and the master were busy at the beginning, but they didn't care."

"How can this be done?" He Zijin sighed, "It's okay if you don't understand this at such a young age. The eldest wife is the most ruling person. She used to be far away and could not be seen. Now that I saw her seriously, I quickly took out the needle and thread made for the eldest wife and the eldest master to serve tea for the eldest wife."

When Gong Yuan got married with Chongyang, although the grandmother-in-law was not in front of her, Gong Yuan had already prepared the needle and thread. After hearing what her godmother said, Gong Yuan went back to the room to get the needle and thread. He Zijin ordered the maid to prepare new tea, and said to the eldest wife, "A Yuan, I saw that she grew up, she is very sensible. I really love her character and temperament, so I accepted her as a godmother. In the future, I have to ask the eldest wife to take care of her."

Mrs. Hu was a little tricky, but she had only these shallow ways of life. She couldn't even cure the third girl who had just entered the door, let alone He Zijin, who was already an imperial decree. He Zijin looked at Mrs. Hu's body covered in gold and jade, and even though she had deliberately dressed up from relatives' house, she thought that she had made a lot of money over the years. Although Mr. Hu had a lawsuit, the court fined a lot because of the corruption. Now, seeing the Hu family's house going out, it can be seen that she has a lot of savings.

Gong Yuan took the needle and thread, and He Zijin smiled and said, "Ayuan is very filial. When she got married with Chongyang, you were not in front of her, she also inquired about it and made the needle and thread. Several years have passed, and look, the needle and thread are still so detailed. After being put in for a few years, the material is not as bright as before. Don't dislike the eldest lady."

Mrs. Hu hurriedly said, "How can I dislike the child's filial piety?"

Gong Yuan stepped forward to greet the grandmother-in-law. Mrs. Hu took the needle and thread, then took off a piece of mutton fat on her body and gave it to Gong Yuan, and said with a smile, "Live a good life with Chongyang. If he dares to bully you, just tell me."

Gong Yuan took the jade pendant and kowtowed to the grandmother-in-law. Later, he met the grandmother-in-law. Mrs. Hu and her party did not prepare before coming. Grandma Hu followed her mother-in-law and took a pair of gold-in-breasted bracelets on her wrist to give Gong Yuan a meeting gift. Then she met her sister-in-law. Gong Yuan's maid was very clever. Seeing that there were younger generations, it was the first generation of her grandmother's nephew and nieces. When she returned to the room, she took a few purses, and each of them contained two small golden purses. Gong Yuan gave this to her cousins ​​and nieces.

Of course, Nannan and Xiaolang, who had already gone to school, also received things given by their elders.

Gong Yuan saw that the grandmother-in-law and her group were all taken out of gold and jade treasures, thinking that the grandmother-in-law had enough money. She sat by the side and listened to her godmother-in-law talking, and was extremely glad that her father asked her to accept her godmother-in-law. As the grandmother-in-law said, she knew that this was not a good person to bother. Gong Yuan had not met difficult people, but the grandmother-in-law was an elder after all, and she was a granddaughter-in-law, and she had a natural disadvantage in her seniority. Unless she had no choice, Gong Yuan was unwilling to turn against her grandmother-in-law.

Fortunately, with my godmother coming forward, Gong Yuan's heart gradually calmed down.

He Zijin talked to Mrs. Hu, and after lunch, she left a meal to entertain the Hu family. After the meal, Mrs. Hu stood up and said goodbye. He Zijin asked Gong Yuan to go out to see her off, but she did not get up. Mrs. Hu was bothered by He Zijin, but she had no choice but to do anything. He Zijin is now a fourth-rank honoree, and she is just a white man. Now there is a high-ranking official in the Jiang family, but her son has his fame and reputation. Even if Mrs. Hu is a tricky person, she knows that there are many places in the imperial capital that rely on the Jiang family. Not only can he not be as good as He Zijin, she should be polite.

Gong Yuan sent her grandmother to talk to her godmother. Seeing that there was no outsider in the room, she said privately, "I think the eldest lady doesn't seem to like me."

He Zijin said, "I don't have to pay attention to her. She has implicated Mr. Hu and the old lady don't know about this. If they know, they can't spare her."

Gong Yuan said, "My husband wrote a letter to his family and asked his father and mother to consider whether to tell the old lady and the grandfather."

"The two old men are old, and this matter needs to be considered." He Zijin sighed, "It's really a waste of money and children can't fight for it. Your old ladies and great masters are rare people who understand. Even Mr. Hu was in his hometown first. It was not easy to take the exam for fame and honor. After ten years of hard work, he got an official from the county town to the capital, and from the capital city to the imperial capital. He was able to get an official business for decades, and even if he couldn't get a high-ranking official, he could still have a place to establish himself. Now he was ruined, and the eldest lady and great master did not think about mistakes. Now he thinks about these women's methods. Alas, if you ask your old lady, the eldest lady, and the eldest lady knows about them, you still don't know how to get angry."

He Zijin didn't like Hu's family's room, and the eldest wife of Hu was very angry when she came home, saying that He Zijin was arrogant, and Grandma Hu stood by, making only a wooden shape, and didn't say a single word.

Mrs. Hu said that He Zijin was arrogant and that when she arrived at the He family, she would not think so. Because, compared to Mrs. He, He Zijin was simply a gentleman of the He family. Mrs. He also asked He Zijin specifically about the Hu family. Mrs. He didn't hide it from Mrs. Hu, and he told his family about it. Mrs. He and Mrs. Shen said that Mrs. Hu was confused. Mrs. Shen had always been tactful, so she just told her family that Mrs. Hu was visiting in person, so she naturally wouldn't say that.

Old Madam He is different. Old Madam He is the same as Old Madam Hu. She is also a person who cannot hold on to things in her heart. She always says anything. When she sees Mrs. Hu, she can't help it. Old Madam He said, "I don't think of this, but your mother-in-law is not here, so I will say a few more words for her. You, you have seen you in the past, and you are smart and smart, and you are from a master of your own. How can you be so shallow? We are from a poor family, A Lie's father is not an official outside and his salary is not much, so I dare not take anyone else's money. You can't do anything for others? Your family is not short of money. Oh, how much money did you collect?" Old Madam He was so curious.

Mrs. Hu's face turned red with embarrassment, and she hurriedly said, "Da Lang is really wronged. How could the old lady in the in-laws hear these words? She can't do it correctly or not."

"Okay! Don't hide it! Who doesn't know! Everyone knows it~" Old Madam He said to Mrs. Hu, "Don't do this in the future. If you say that Awen is not your biological son, it would be fine if you don't love him. Your uncle is your legitimate son, and there is no such thing as your mother who cheats his son like this! If it weren't for our well-knowing family, I wouldn't believe that this was done by my mother. Tell me, your uncle had to last longer for the things you did.

, after reaching the fifth rank, you can have an imperial edict. Now, because of you, your uncle has lost his future. Originally, the children were all from the official family, but because of you, they became ordinary people. Boys are a little better. As long as they can study, there will always be a good marriage. But girls are not good. Now, when they say marriage, they all pay attention to the same family. If your uncle is just a presidency, wouldn’t it delay the future of the girls? You, if someone gives me one million taels, I can’t ruin my son’s future. You, you are confused~”

Mrs. Hu's words made Mrs. Hu's eyes flush. One was due to embarrassment. The other was that even though the eldest son had sued him, what was going on? Mrs. Hu didn't know what happened? Mrs. Hu didn't know about this call. It was okay for Mrs. Hu to tell Mrs. Hu's heart, that was, "This is your legitimate son, and there is no such mother in the world who cheated her son like you!" Mrs. Hu could not regret it. It was because of regret that she thought of taking advantage of the power of several families to see if she could find an official position for her son.

Mrs. Hu was a little old and could hold it in, so she kept it back to calm down. Grandma Hu was different. Grandma Hu's tears rolled down like broken beads, which was both heartbroken and heartbreaking for her husband and children and grandchildren.

Mrs. Hu bit her back teeth and said, "See what the old lady in the in-laws said, I love Awen as much as I love Awen. I love Awen more than Dalang."

Mrs. He tilted her mouth and waved her hand. The three golden rings on her hand shone brightly. "Okay, you'll fool outsiders this lie. Don't talk about these insincereness for many years. You can change it in the future. Just what you do, your mother-in-law is merciful, and I'll be angry. If you want to change my family, I'll have divorced her!" As she said that, she praised her daughter-in-law and praised Shen, "Don't think that my wife is not as good as yours. She is born to be a strong family and husband and grandchildren. My Agong and his father and grandfather are all single-handed. To A Lie and his generation, there are four kids. The girl you have ever seen in my family is also a blessing. It's so prosperous. Make A Nianwang a fourth-rank official!"

When Mrs. He spoke, she met Mrs. Hu’s arrogant man in her nest. She couldn’t do anything about Mrs. He. Otherwise, she was in trouble. After hearing your sarcastic words, she would be narrow-minded and retaliated against society!

Fortunately, Mrs. He doesn't show off her family. Although she doesn't like Mrs. Hu, she sees that Mrs. Hu is not bad. She said to Mrs. Hu, "Your mother-in-law is confused, you have to worry more. This man is busy with external affairs and women have to take good care of the family. Life is still long. As long as you keep your mind up and teach your descendants well, you will have good fortune waiting for you."

Grandma Hu choked and said, "I just hope to respond to the old lady's words."

Mrs. He comforted her, "You can't be discouraged. Think about it, even if the official is gone, your uncle is still a serious Jinshi, and your family is also a scholarly family. How difficult is my family? There has never been a scholar in dozens of generations. The land passed down by his ancestors in ten lives is only 100 acres, so you have to be careful. You can't eat twice a month. Since I married the He family, I haven't worn silk for decades. Now, my life is better. If you think it's difficult, think about my family before. No matter how difficult it is, it's not as difficult as my family. Besides, there are descendants. Children are the hope of the family. You should learn from the dizzy things your mother-in-law does in the future. We are all decent families, and we would rather be poorer than accepting those who are ignorant of money."

Seeing that other people's elders are so sensible, and then think about my mother-in-law, Grandma Hu feels that her life is miserable.

Mrs. He was not happy about Mrs. Hu, but he imagined what kind of answer will Mrs. Hu asks the He family to have a drink. Mrs. He said to her, "You still have the intention to eat wine? I am so worried about you. You should hurry up and recite the scriptures of evil karma in the temple for a few days. I won't go to the wine."

Although Grandma Hu was deeply resentful to this mother-in-law, the interests of the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were the same. Grandma Hu also knew that the Jiang He family was doing well now, the He family was still relatively low, but the Jiang family was already a fourth-rank official. Moreover, the two families were married to the capital, Grandma Hu was also thinking about whether to use the two families to find new things for her husband. So she advised her, "If the family suffered these things, it depends on the help of relatives, so my uncle can be safe. Now she sincerely put two tables of wine and invites the old ladies, wives, and grandmas to come over and sit down."

Mrs. He said, "It's good to have this intention. We are not outsiders, so why do you use your house to drink? There is no need to be such a heretic." She looked down on the prodigal daughter-in-law like Mrs. Hu the most in her life, so how could she want to go to her house for a drink!

Mrs. Hu, grandma Hu, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, invited her. Old Mother-in-law He looked down on Mrs. Hu, and refused to go! She was very clever and used her granddaughter-in-law as a shield and said, "A Lie's wife is stupid. Brother Xing's daughter-in-law has just been pregnant. Brother Jun's wife has just passed the confinement period and is weak. I have to take care of them. The family cannot be separated from others. I really can't go."

Seeing that Mrs. He was determined to leave, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Hu family invited Shen to come over. Shen thought that after all, there was no one in the family, which was not good. So she said, "There are so many things at home, and my mother really can't leave her. If the wife of the family does not abandon her, I will visit her."

Although the Hu mother-in-law and daughter-in-law only invited one Shen family, although they were a little regretful, they had to give up all kinds of inconveniences for the female family, so the Hu mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had to give up. Mrs. Hu smiled and said, "We have been missing for more than 20 years, and we should be together for a long time."

Shen smiled, "Yes."

The Hu family and his party visited the Shen family again. Jiang received the post and agreed to go over and eat the table.

Old Madam He also asked her girl specifically, and He Zijin said, "I haven't seen Mrs. Hu like this. She even put on the grandmother's poem in front of A Yuan. She speaks without any yin or yang. I stab her a few words."

"She has long looked down on our family. When your third sister married Awen, she had no good fortune." After saying his old grudges, Mrs. He said, "If it weren't for the sake of the old lady of the Hu family and Mr. Hu, I would have told you to ignore her family's affairs."

"Isn't that the same?" But after all, when A Nian A Lie was a child, he studied at Furong Academy and was mostly taken care of by Chief Hu. What's more, Uncle Hu was just cheated by Mrs. Hu. This was Chief Hu's eldest grandson. I really couldn't bear to be such a land.

Shen took the opportunity to teach the three daughters-in-law and daughter, saying, "Mrs. Hu was confused and cheated the whole family. But I asked me to say that Grandma Hu was just a fake understanding, not a new daughter-in-law. She is also a mother-in-law, and she is about to marry a grandson wife. How can she not pay attention to the family affairs? If Grandma Hu was a little careful, she would not be like this."

He Zijin said, "Grandma Hu used to be a gentle person, how could she control Mrs. Hu?"

"That's why she is said to be incompetent. Who is marrying a wife is not to manage her family well. Mrs. Hu is annoying. Mrs. Hu looks like a foolish and filial. I know it is not because of Grandma Hu. But this family is not alone in life. This is her own business. Mrs. Hu is checking cash outside, which is related to a family. Now Mrs. Hu is just losing his official position, which is still lucky. He is soft-hearted and has to understand his character. Otherwise, it will be difficult for a man to lose his official position and want to make a comeback."

He Zijin said, "Don't you know? I heard that Mrs. Hu has a trick. Once Grandma Hu doesn't suit her, she will immediately add a girl to Mr. Hu." I have to say that He Zijin's gossip is in line with Mr. He and she loves to inquire.

When Mrs. He heard this, she widened her eyes and said mysteriously, "Uncle Hu is really Mrs. Hu's biological son? Isn't this my own mother? How could my mother harm her son like this?"

Shen was so amused and laughed, "Don't laugh, mother, how can bloodlines be fake?"

"It's not about this. If my mother is a real woman, how can she stuff her son's room with one room on the left and one on the right?" said Mrs. He, "I heard that the wife is an aunt who is not named. What is the aunt? That's the little wife. Is this Mrs. Hu crazy? Isn't she a traitor? Isn't she a traitor crazy? Isn't she a traitor crazy? Whoever is not knowledgeable about her children should not be asked to be indulged in beauty. She always stuffs her son with a little wife, wouldn't she lead her son to learn bad things?"

Mrs. He sighed, "If I hadn't seen it, I wouldn't have believed that there was such a mother in the world."

Yu Xing said, "How many people in the world understand as much as their grandmother?"

"Yes, grandmother, you have written several books. Not everyone can have such knowledge." Du also flattered the grandmother-in-law, mainly because no one doesn't like to hear about the grandmother-in-law's words, no matter whether they are daughter-in-law or granddaughter-in-law, they don't like to hear them. I have to say that A Lie's generation can marry a good wife, which is also closely related to the He family's family tradition. A family that truly loves daughters, even if the son-in-law's family is slightly lower, is willing to marry her and live a peaceful and happy life.

Li Sanniang also said, "I have read the book of my grandmother several times, and I have bought several sets from the shop for my mother to take it with me when I go back and read it to my mother's brothers."

Mrs. He laughed and said to his third grandson's wife, "Why didn't you say earlier? You bought it? You have it in the store of the uncle of the Shen family. Just get a few sets, so you can save money."

Mrs. He said again, "You're late to enter the door, otherwise, I've got a few sets in my hand. Over the years, if someone comes to ask for it, I'll give it to someone." That proud and proud look is simply indescribable~

He Zijin smiled and said, "Speaking of this, it's been so many years. Grandma's book has been reprinted more frequently than A Nian's book."

Mrs. He said, "The things written by A Nian are for those who are knowledgeable. My books are easy to understand and can be read by anyone. Think about it, there are still more people in this world who have knowledge."

He Zijin made the old lady happy, "The main reason is that you are well-written by your old man."

Old Madam He pretended to be humble and said, "It's average, it's just three or five points better than A Nian's writing."

Everyone talked and laughed, very happy.
