Chapter 1223 Intention
Author: Loeva
Xu's condition improved unexpectedly, faster than anyone expected. Qin Hanzhen in Xifu couldn't help being surprised when he heard the news.
She asked Cai Shengnan, who had just returned from Dongfu, in disbelief: "Is it true? My great-uncle can get out of bed and walk around today?!"
Cai Shengnan nodded and said with a smile: "I was quite surprised to see you when I went over there. Your second uncle also said that although she is still very weak now, she is in good spirits and still has the energy to intervene in the affairs of the house. At home,
Everyone was surprised.”
Qin Han was really sure that Yao's original words were definitely not like that. Would she still be happy for her mother-in-law Xu's health to improve? Especially after the latter revealed that she wanted to take back the power of the central government?
Niu's thoughts were not as complex as those of her granddaughter. She was simply happy that Xu's condition had improved: "This must be a thought, right? Just think about it. The Xu family is really not worth her trouble. If the Xu family
As long as you know how to be grateful, you can repay the same sincerity to her, that’s all. This is obviously a bunch of white-eyed wolves, and only fools rush to worry about the white-eyed wolves!"
Cai Shengnan coughed twice and said hesitantly: "It's probably not overthinking... After the eldest uncle was able to get up, she first asked the second master and the third master to send a message to Xu's family room, saying that she was sick, and to call Xu's family room.
People looked at her and specifically told her that she must bring Xu's eldest grandson and granddaughter with her. She didn't listen to her second and third grandfather's advice, and she had to see her grandnephew and grandnephew no matter what."
Niu was surprised: "Sister-in-law, is this crazy? Xu's family is still observing filial piety and has not given out the service! She is a patient, and she is not afraid of bad luck when she calls people with filial piety to meet them. Even if she is not afraid, she still has to do it.
Think about it for the rest of the family? Brother Jian is getting married in a few months, and everyone in the family is busy with weddings, so isn’t she afraid that someone coming from the Xu family will be unlucky?!"
Cai Shengnan smiled bitterly: "Why haven't the second and third masters tried to persuade me? But the eldest uncle was determined and said that it would be fine for the Xu family to come. After all, the Xu family's grandma was not sensible and might not be willing to listen to her even if she came. She was also impatient.
See, the second sister-in-law is very angry. This is different from the second room of the Xu family. The second room of the Xu family is out of service, so talk
The third sister-in-law suggested that Xu’s family should send a decent steward over, as long as she was a close confidant of the eldest family member, to help spread the news, or ask the eldest aunt
It would be fine to send a confidant to Xu's family room. But the aunt is unwilling to listen and insists on seeing the people in Xu's family room."
Niu's face darkened, and she curled her lips and said, "If my sister-in-law really insists on going her own way, she will be hated by gods and ghosts in the future. I will not pity her! What the hell is this..."
Qin Hanzhen asked curiously: "What do you want to say if your eldest aunt insists on meeting the people in Xu's family room? Does she have a new plan?"
Cai Shengnan replied: "No one knows what she is thinking, but no one came to Xu's parents' room. Although the words have been spread out of Songfeng Hall, the person who sent the message has not been able to leave Cheng'enhou Mansion. The second master is in front of
The aunt didn't say anything in front of her, but when she left the house, she gave an order not to let anyone in the family go to Xu's parents' room.
.Just thinking that the eldest uncle might miss her mother's family while she was ill, he discussed it with the third master and sent the letter to the second room of the Xu family. Although the two families had separated, to the aunt, they were all flesh and blood.
There are not so many taboos about close relatives, so when they come, they will probably be able to soothe the eldest aunt's feelings of missing her relatives."
This was taken for granted. Facts have proved that the second wife of the Xu family and the second wife of Xu's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law came to visit Xu's condition, which did not put her in a good mood. She was still a little surprised: "Why are you here? I want to see you
It’s Brother Zheng and Sister Xiu!”
The smile on Mrs. Xu's face froze for a moment. In the past few days, she had just tasted the feeling of being the master of the family as she had never experienced before. There was also hope for her husband's recovery. It was just when she was satisfied that her attitude towards Mrs. Xu
She was a little sensitive. My daughter-in-law, Mrs. Xu, was smarter and took over the conversation in time: "The eldest brother has not yet made his filial piety, so he was afraid of disturbing the family's happy event and worried that my aunt had something important to say, so she asked us to come over first.
Already."
Mrs. Xu was even more surprised: "You are...reconciled?" She thought that after the two families separated, they would have to be indifferent to each other for at least a year and a half before they reconciled under her persuasion.
Second Mistress Xu laughed dryly: "I can't write two characters "Xu" in one stroke. How can a family have an overnight feud? It's just that there are occasional conflicts, and it will be fine after the anger is relieved. Although our two houses are separated, but
It’s just that we live together in different kitchens, but we still live together. We should help each other, respect and love each other.”
Mrs. Xu showed a happy smile: "That's well said. You can understand this truth. It shows that you have really made progress and you have not let me down. A family should live in harmony like this. Although your sister-in-law has made mistakes, she has not disappointed her."
It has never caused any serious consequences. As long as she knows her mistake and will not do it again in the future, for the sake of the overall situation, you should not hold a grudge anymore. Even if two people separate, they should do so in a harmonious manner. Just like our Chengenhou Mansion
Even though we are separated from the Yongjia Marquis Mansion next door, we are still as close as one family, regardless of each other."
Mistress Xu twitched her lips and replied dryly: "My aunt is right."
Mrs. Xu Er could no longer bear to hear these nonsense from her eldest sister-in-law, so she said directly: "Seeing that my aunt's complexion is much better than that day, it must be that her condition has improved? Although my niece-in-law is not sensible, her behavior is very...
People are angry, but my aunt is old, so she should take care of herself. Why should she be as knowledgeable as the younger generations? She is not sensible, and she has her own parents-in-law to discipline her. Even if she does not repent now, in the future she will
Once you suffer a loss, you will know what is good and what is good."
Mrs. Xu frowned: "I just said that the second niece-in-law understands the principles of family harmony. Why are the siblings talking bad about the eldest nephew-in-law now? I'm not... I'm not angry because of her. What do you blame her for?" Facts
Last time, she was angry because of her two nieces-in-law, but today the two nephews-in-law knew the general situation, so she didn't lose face.
Mrs. Xu Er laughed dryly and continued to return to her main topic: "Auntie, do you have something you want to tell the elder to know?"
Xu's feeling was not good. The second sibling was clearly at odds with her eldest brother. If she let the other party know her plans, wouldn't the second sibling do bad things intentionally? After thinking about it, she vaguely said: "It's nothing.
, I just miss my two children and want them to come and see them. On the day we separated, I saw that Brother Zheng didn’t look well. The weather is not good now, so don’t get sick, right?"
The expressions of Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Xu both turned cold, and they thought at the same time: Why don't you think about our brother Rong?!
Their faces stiffened at the same time, and Mistress Xu's tone of voice was no longer as attentive as before: "What's wrong with Brother Zheng? He's in good health. He still immerses himself in reading every day and works very hard. Twelve hours a day,
On the contrary, eight or nine hours were spent in the study, and even meals were eaten in the study. How could there be time to get sick? He didn't even have the time to say a few words to our brother Rong or give us advice on one or two issues.
I'm afraid it's not convenient to come to visit my aunt. If my aunt wants to see him, she'd better wait until after her filial piety is fulfilled, so as to avoid outsiders gossiping about our Xu family and saying that we don't know the etiquette."
Mrs. Xu's expression stiffened for a moment, and she felt that she seemed to be acting too hastily. She said sarcastically: "I suddenly really want to see the two children. I didn't expect so many at the same time..."
In the end, the second wife of the Xu family, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, ended the meeting in Songfengtang unhappily, but when they returned home, they received good news from Qin Shutao. The two brothers of the Qin family had already discussed it with their in-laws, Mr. Qingtang of Dali Temple.
The issue of Mr. Xu's resumption is not a big problem. It is impossible to reinstate the official. His position is already occupied, but there is another colleague at the same level as him who will be promoted to the Ministry of Punishment when his term expires next month.
Go, the appointment has been confirmed. At that time, Mr. Xu can take over the position vacated by this colleague, which is equivalent to the official returning to his original position. Anyway, the grade and responsibilities are similar, and even the working environment is very familiar to him.
, which is considered the most ideal result.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the second wife of the Xu family went home happily. Before leaving, they thanked the Qin family profusely. They knew that if they made good friends with the Qin family, good results would definitely come!
After returning home, Mr. Xu Er knew the good news and was even more sure that he was not on the wrong team. Although my sister has been in charge of the Chengen Marquis Mansion for decades and is used to making decisions for the Xu family, every day
The good thing this time was that the eldest brother took up the lion's share, and their second wife just followed suit. Even the marriage of Xu Rong and Qin Jinrong this time was because the eldest brother had no one to get out of, so he settled for the next best thing and thought of the second wife.
Unlike the two nephews Qin Zhonghai and Qin Shutao, the second brother-in-law of the Xu family just obediently promoted the separation of the family. Mr. Xu’s revolt was solved immediately without costing them any trouble or money. In this case, their second brother-in-law is not as good as
Leave the sister aside and just listen to the nephew. The second wife of the Xu family has no ambitions. They have to wait for several years to expect Xu Rong to make a difference. As long as they can keep a fortune and stability, who can they not listen to?
As for the news of Mr. Xu's resurgence when it reached the Xu family's house, Uncle Xu and Mrs. Xu found out that it was the two nephews of the Cheng'enhou Mansion who had contributed. She felt regretful and tried to send someone to pay homage to Mr.
After hearing the lie that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the second wife of the Xu family had not reconciled with their eldest brother, the intense internal conflict between the two people is beside the point.
After getting the letter from Xu's family, Mrs. Xu finally stopped worrying about meeting Xu Zheng and Xu Xiu, and instead urged her two sons to try to manage the bureaucracy for Uncle Xu and try to get the latter to be reinstated as a post-official.
Or find a better job. Qin Zhonghai didn't say that he couldn't do anything, and just said: "Let's wait until the Xu family has made filial piety. Start taking care of it now. I'm afraid people will gossip and say that my cousin hasn't made filial piety yet."
I'm just thinking about becoming an official. My uncle's reputation is not very good, so why bother letting my cousin fall into disgrace again?"
Mrs. Xu had no choice but to temporarily stop and recuperate, but a new problem arose, that is, she missed the two younger generations of the Lu family. She often wanted to see Lu Chuming and Lu Chuliang to see her, or ask Qin Youzhen to come over and talk.
However, Qin Youzhen and Lu Chuming, mother and son, went to Beijing, and they still had to do business dealing with people. The latter also had to go around asking for homework, so how could he have so much time to accompany her? There was only one Lu Chuliang who really reported to Songfeng Hall regularly. Mr. Xu
There are still some shortcomings in my heart, but others have already seen some clues.
Qin Hanzhen couldn't help but discuss privately with his grandmother Niu Shi and his stepmother Cai Shengnan: "My eldest uncle has taken a liking to the Lu family brothers this time. Which cousin of the Xu family does she want to marry? My eldest aunt has made it clear that she is not happy.
Why bother? When will my great-aunt and grandma be able to stop forcing others to do things difficult for them?"
Cai Shengnan said: "I don't know if the Lu family is aware of it."
Niu muttered: "It's so obvious, who can't see it?"
Qin Hanzhen curled his lips: "Her efforts were in vain this time. The Lu family has actually had an intention for a long time, and they have been busy talking about getting married these days."
Niu and Cai Shengnan both turned to look at her: "What did you say?"
