Chapter 76
When Xue Chen returned to Yanzi Lane, he happened to meet Wei Zhilan and Wei Zhiqin who were about to go out at the door. Seeing that she was dressed in a pretty good manner and came to salute her, Xue Chen asked:
"Where is this going?"
Wei Zhilan laughed before speaking and said, "It was Miss Li who invited us to visit our home. They met in Yuan Mansion that day. They were very nice people. Will the elder sister go with them?"
Wei Zhiqin followed Wei Zhilan and invited Xue Chen, "Yes, let's go with my elder sister. We went to ask Sister Jing before, if she doesn't go, we're bored."
Naturally, Xue Chen would not go with them, so he shook his head, gave a few words to him, and said, "I won't go. You are outside, be careful in everything."
After the two agreed, they got on the carriage.
Xue Chen first went to Xiao's main courtyard to ask for advice, but Xiao's accompanying room, Chunniang, who is now the mother in charge of the main courtyard, told Xue Chen that his wife was meeting guests. Xue Chen asked who it was. Chunniang told her that the elder of the Wei family was coming.
At this point, Xue Chen could not ask any more questions. He was about to leave a few words for Chunniang to convey to Xiao. On the other hand, Xiao walked out of the flower hall, followed by two people, one of whom was a middle-aged woman wearing a braided purple-colored gold pattern, and a fan-shaped hairpin on her head. Judging from her outfit, she should be a wife, and behind her was an old woman wearing a color-skinned armor.
Seeing that they came out, Xue Chen went up to pay tribute to Xiao. Xiao nodded and asked her to get up. The woman behind her looked at Xue Chen calmly, then exchanged glances with the woman behind her, and then walked up to Xue Chen and said:
"Is this Miss Xue?"
Xue Chen looked at Xiao, and saw that Xiao's face turned pale and was not willing to answer the woman's words. Xue Chen didn't know them and it was hard to reply. The woman didn't mind Xiao's cold face and said, "I am Jing Jie'er's aunt, and the eldest lady can also call me aunt with Jing Jie'er."
It turned out to be the wife of the Wei family. Since she said that, Xue Chen was not willing to give her face, so he bowed to her according to the gift of his juniors, and then whispered: "Auntie."
This is the face given to Xiao.
Seeing her like this, Xiao said to the woman: "Okay, this is the place of the Xue family after all. If your brother and sister are fine, you should go back to serve your elders earlier."
Mrs. Xiao was giving the order to expel guests. The aunt seemed to feel that she couldn't stand her face, glared at Mrs. Xiao and said:
"What's the matter? I'm just talking to Miss Xue. You are now her legitimate mother. You call me a younger sister. Then I am her elder. Stay here and say a few words. What's the point? Miss Xue, do you think so?"
Xue Chen didn't reply, but felt that this woman was extremely rude. If the Wei family had this accent, it would be no wonder that Xiao said he would remarry no matter what.
The woman didn't get Xue Chen's approval, and felt a little disappointed. She wanted to say something else, so she heard Xiao say bluntly:
"Okay. If you want money to live, I will give it to you too. Why are you still tangled with? Get out of here quickly."
Mrs. Xiao ruthlessly revealed the purpose of the woman coming, which made the woman's face turn red. Finally, she glanced at Xue Chen again, then left, leaving a sentence: "Hmph, I'm here to show you the prestige of the county magistrate with me, and I don't think about who helped you when you entered the Wei family, and you were ungrateful."
She was obviously looking for a place to find some of the lost face. Xiao did not want to argue with her. The woman was bored to stay, so she took the woman slowly and left. After taking two steps, she did not forget to turn around and said:
"Miss Xue, aunt is leaving first, and I will come back to see you."
Xue Chen saw the relationship between Xiao and them, and did not answer, but stood beside Xiao with expressionless face. Seeing them leave, the woman couldn't bear to worry about her face, so she turned around and twisted her waist and left the Xue family.
Xiao looked at Xue Chen and felt that this child was so many times stronger than Jing Jie'er. He was kind when he should be harmonious, and when he should be cold and hard, so he could see the situation clearly and see the truth clearly.
He sighed and said, "Go back and have a rest. Next time I will ask the concierge to stop them."
Xue Chen knew that Xiao didn't want to talk about this matter more, so he nodded, bowed his knees and bowed, and then turned around and left.
When he returned to Qingqueju, Qin Feng came up to her and said, Sister Jing was crying inside. Xue Chen asked what was going on. Qin Feng shook his head and said:
"I don't know, the second lady cried when she came, and we ignored us when we asked."
Xue Chen thought that it was probably related to the two women before, so he asked Qin Feng and the others to go down to make shoes or something in the corridor. He went to the room. Before he could enter, he heard some sob sounds coming from inside. He pushed the door and found the bedroom with the sound. Sister Jing was lying on her pillow, crying like tears.
Xue Chen walked over, and Sister Jing sat up from the bed, wiped her tears with a handkerchief that had been a bit wet, and said in a low voice:
"You're back."
"What's wrong? Why are you wronged?" Xue Chen pulled out his handkerchief, wiped his tears for Sister Jing, and then asked again: "Is it a member of the Wei family?"
Apart from this reason, Xue Chen really couldn't think of how Sister Jing would cry like this. Xue Chen didn't know what life she had spent in the Wei family in the past, but she knew that although Sister Jing was weak, she might not be just a crying person. Although she was soft, she was soft and strong, and she was strong. She could understand the winks. As long as she raised it a little, she would be able to cooperate with you very well.
Since Sister Jing came to Xue Chen for shelter, she had no intention of hiding Xue Chen. She nodded and said, "Yes. I don't like seeing Aunt Wang, she..." As she said that, she was about to cry again with grievance, but in the end she held back and said to Xue Chen well.
"I don't want her to marry the son of her mother's brother."
This incident was really something that Xue Chen didn't expect. He frowned and asked in confusion: "Will you marry if she wants you to marry? What is her identity as her brother? What is your identity? She really dares to speak."
Sister Jing took a deep breath, cheered up a little, and said, "I don't dislike her family's status as a low-level person. If she is in love, it's nothing if she is poor. However, she is different. She made a marriage contract with my father without telling it. She also wrote a letter of contract, saying that I would marry her brother's house when I was fifteen years old. My mother naturally refused, but she had a marriage contract written by my father in her hand, and even my mother could not do anything about it. Although my mother is the county lord, she has no status in the Prince's Mansion of Beijing County since her grandmother passed away. My uncle ignored us at all. Aunt Wang relied on my mother's lack of support to support us."
After hearing this, Xue Chen thought to himself that every family has a difficult sutra. It turned out that Xiao, the county lord of Jiahe, was really cowardly. Even a village woman with no grade level dared to ride on her head and act wildly.
"Sister Chen, what should I do? If you want me to marry her brother's son, I would rather hit him and die."
After thinking about it, Xue Chen asked:
"Who is this Wang family? Is it an official?" The Wei family should have been quite prosperous in the past, so Wei Qing, the magistrate, could marry a county lord. Although the county lord was unable to let his parents help him rise to the top, his identity was not something that ordinary people could ask for. Therefore, Aunt Wang and Xiao were sisters-in-laws in the past, and their family background should not be too bad, at least they would not be a farmer.
"Her parents were the general of Weizhou, but now they have been transferred back to the capital and work in the Ministry of War. After my father's death, the Wei family relied on Aunt Wang's brothers to live and moved to the capital. My mother insisted on remarrying, which made the Wei family hate it to the core. Now that Lan Jie'er and Qin Jie'er have taken half of the Wei family's property, they are even more shameful. However, my mother didn't even ask for their money. My father died, so it should be my family property. They said that my mother remarried and refused to give it to her. Now she is coming to find fault. It's really unreasonable."
Sighing, Xue Chen said, "Wang is here today, and he is forced to marry you?"
Sister Jing was a little embarrassed, shook her head and said, "She is here to ask my mother for money today. She mentioned the marriage and didn't force me. It's just that I was thinking about being uncomfortable, so I was like this..."
Xue Chen nodded and said, "Okay, since you haven't forced you, don't think too much. There is always a solution to the problem. No matter what, you should never forget that your mother is the county lord, and she can kill them for several rounds by her origin. Even if you take your father's marriage contract letter to complain, your aunt is a civilian woman and your mother is a county lord, and this is the civilian suing official. First of all, you have to beat twenty big boards. After the twenty big boards, how angry is your aunt Wang to sue?"
When Sister Jing heard what Sister Chen said was so reliable, she felt much better and burst into tears and smiled at Xue Chen.
On the way back, Wang counted the money he got from Xiao and asked the mother next to him: "Hey, do you see Miss Xue? She has a temperament and looks extraordinary. If she could marry our Yun'er, she would have been so decent."
The woman didn't know what her wife had planned, and immediately agreed, "That's right, Miss Xue and our Young Master Yun look like they are a perfect match."
Wang still had a little bit of self-knowledge and said, "But her father is a third-rank official, and we Yun'er didn't even pass the exam for a scholar. I'm afraid they won't agree, right?"
What did the old woman know? She only knew how to flatter Wang and said:
"Is this so good? Our Young Master Yun is extremely smart. Whether or not he can pass the exam is a matter of time. Besides, if the eldest lady of the Xue family marrys our Young Master Yun, can Mr. Xue still see that his son-in-law cannot pass the exam? No matter how you say that, I will arrange an official position for you."
Although Wang knew that the mother was flattering, her wishful thinking was so good that her mother thought that her son was the best. No one should have looked down on her son, so she threw all the slightest self-knowledge aside and said with a beautiful dream:
"It's good. Sister Jing married Lu Ge'er and Miss Xue married Yun Ge'er. Then I can have a nephew's wife of the county lord's daughter and a daughter of the third rank official. This kind of decency should always suppress those goblins who compete with me."
The woman nodded repeatedly: "It's a must! How can these goblins compare with their wives?"
