Wang Zhiyao is in front, and Wang Yixin is behind. Although father and daughter are traveling on the same road, they are like strangers to each other.

When Wang Yixin looked at the snowy scenery around him, he felt increasingly sad.

It was as if he was the only one left in the white Marquis Mansion. It would be better to have a daughter than not. Wang Yixin hardened his heart. It was Wang Zhiyao who was unfilial and disobedient. He worked hard and loved and protected her... She didn't appreciate it. What was wrong with him?

?

In the splendidly furnished room, Ms. Jiang was leaning on a cushion and pulling Wang Duanchun to talk. She would feed Wang Duanchun snacks and peel nuts for her son herself. Her eyes were full of love for her biological son, with soft and loving eyes.

It seems to be boring to death.

Wang Duanchun was not used to Jiang being so 'loving', so he squirmed uneasily, trying to distance himself from Jiang. After all, he had been raised to respect and be filial to his parents since he was a child, and not to act coquettishly around his mother.

However, his resistance was ruthlessly suppressed by Chiang.

Originally, Mrs. Jiang didn't want to show her motherly love so obviously, so sweetly, but just now Wang Zhiyao gave her an idea. If she feels that she can't help her son, she should give him the best.

With Wang Duan's honest, kind and shy character, even if the Chiang family doted on him, he would not be able to dote on the little bully.

Besides, in Wang Zhiyao's opinion, what happened to the little bully?

Wang Duanchun is the son of the fourth master of the Immortal King and the grandson of Uncle Xi Ning. Isn't it normal to be a little domineering?

On this point, Wang Duanchun should really study hard with Gu Sanshao... Gu Sanshao left many domineering legends in the capital, and he is still alive and well. No one dares to mess with him.

When Mrs. Jiang saw Wang Duanchun's face turned red and he was at a loss as to whether he wanted to refuse but didn't dare to refuse, she liked to tease him even more.

At this time, Wang Duanchun seemed like Jiang's son instead of a nerd with no self-confidence.

"Is the rose cake delicious?"

"Um."

Wang Duanchun swallowed the cake that his mother had stuffed into his mouth, and whispered: "Don't...my brother is still here."

"He copied the books and had no time to use them."

Mrs. Jiang lightly raised her eyelids, and beside the short Kang table, Wang Duanhan was writing furiously. Because Mr. Jiang and Wang Duanchun occupied most of the place, there was very little space left for Wang Duanhan to write, and he even had to stoop.

"Brother Chun, you are different from him. You crawled out of my belly and are born to be more valuable than him. Now the Wang family can't keep up with the ancestors. I think back then, the concubine of Wang Xie's family in Wuyi Lane wanted to break into the family.

?Concubines can be used to entertain friends. It is hard to tell whether the children born from concubines are the male master's race. The blood is not pure. How many sons of concubines don't even have surnames? They are treated like slaves. Even if there are lucky ones,

The mistress admits that they are not qualified to go out and meet people."

"mother……"

Wang Duanchun didn't dare to look at Wang Duanhan's face. Jiang's words were unkind and hurtful. But there was a hint of joy in his heart. No, he couldn't be jealous of his brother. "You said it happened in the past, brother."

He is a scholar."

Jiang smiled sarcastically, silently recited the words Wang Zhiyao taught her, and saw Wang Duanhan writing on a piece of paper. His shy and annoyed look made Jiang extremely happy, "Didn't your father and grandmother always want to restore the ancestral power of the Wang family?"

Glory? If you want to say anything else, you can put it down. The ancestral rules of the Langxie family cannot be discarded. There are so many scholars these days, doesn’t it mean that you are a scholar if you are poor? "

The words Wang Zhiyao taught Jiang were hurtful because they were true. Wang Duanhan couldn't hold the brush steady for a moment, and the entire scripture that was about to be copied was messed up by the dropped brush, "Mother..."

"You can't even do such a small thing, and you're still being called filial?"

Jiang's eyebrows stood up, and he patted the edge of the pit angrily. Wang Duanhan's face turned white and red. He dared to be angry but did not dare to speak. He said sternly: "What? I can't tell you? Do you still have this in your eyes?"

My aunt? Look what you copied after a long time. It was a waste of pen and ink. The maids around me are better than you!"

Wang Duanhan couldn't bear the insult, so he stood up in an instant, standing tall like a cypress, and clenched his hands tightly in his sleeves. Does Jiang mean that he is worse than a slave?

"I'll tell you a few words, aren't you convinced? Or are you saying that you want to fight with me?"

"..."

Wang Duanhan suddenly thought of Jiang's strange strength, which could even crush an incense burner. If he tried to fight with Jiang, his bones and tendons would definitely be broken, and there would be no benefit at all. Most importantly, it would be bad for his reputation. After all, being unfilial to his mother is a grave sin.

His current mother can only be Jiang.

Outside the house, Aunt Yin rinsed the spittoon with ice-cold water. The biting cold water made her tender hands turn red. The cold water stung her joints like needles. She didn't know what was used in the spittoon. It stank. Yin

The aunt felt extremely wronged and couldn't remember how long it had been since she had done slave work.

It seems that ever since she went to bed, Wang Yixin has been raising her as a young lady. She has been attended to by dedicated people when she comes in and out, and she has lived a comfortable life with fine clothes and fine food.

Aunt Yin only needs to accompany Wang Yixin, dance and write, and serve him on the bed | couch.

Nowadays, the job of cleaning the spittoon makes Aunt Yin very painful. The noble temperament that was favored by Wang Yixin is no longer visible when cleaning the spittoon. How can a slave who cleans the spittoon be so noble? Who would appreciate Aunt Yin cleaning the spittoon?

How graceful are the movements?

There were two other pretty little maids beside them, holding a warm hand stove and eating candy cubes as 'supervisors', thus eliminating Aunt Yin's intention of perfunctory work.

Although Aunt Yin was in pain, she still endured it silently. But when she heard the movement in the house, she couldn't help it. She was so proud of her son, who had placed all her hopes on him, being 'treated' like this by Jiang. What mother could not bear it?

Come on?

Aunt Yin put down the spittoon, raised the curtain and entered the room. Her tearful eyes were filled with a hint of grievance, but she also had some tenacity to defend her son. "Please don't say that to Master Han. You are also a mother. If others say that Chun

If the young master is not good, you will also be sad. Young Master Han won a small three yuan. Who in the capital doesn't know? He is the son of the fourth master, how can he be the same as others? Besides, you look down on scholars, but there are people who don't even have the reputation of being a scholar...

…”

Wang Duanchun lowered his head, Aunt Yin must have been talking about herself.

Jiang sneered and said: "I am indeed a mother. But can my biological son be the same as a concubine? Brother Chun was born precious, and outsiders will definitely not compare slave Yangzi with Brother Chun."

"..."

This time, not only Wang Duanchun was so pale, but also Aunt Yin, and Wang Zhixuan who came in with food.

Before Wang Zhiyao went to see Wang Yixin, she not only taught Jiang how to train Aunt Yin, but also told her how to 'divide labor'.

Wang Duanhan's calligraphy was taught by Wang Yixin himself, so Jiang asked him to copy the scriptures.

Aunt Yin is a concubine, isn't it normal to wash spittoons and serve the mistress?

As for Wang Zhixuan... she has always been good at herbal medicine and good at cooking. So the cooks in the kitchen can take a break and give Wang Zhixuan a chance to show off her superb skills.

Wang Zhixuan was very beautiful, but she had just been exposed to smoke and fire in the kitchen. At this time, she was not as beautiful as usual. Wang Zhixuan could not accept being compared with a humble servant, let alone her brother and biological mother being bullied by Jiang.

What does the Jiang family have? Isn’t it just that she has the title of one more legitimate wife?

"Mother... my aunt is also a good concubine. She has served my father for many years, and she has worked hard without any merit. She has given birth to children for her father, and has flourished the branches and leaves of the Wang family. She is a meritorious official of the Wang family."

"According to what the fifth sister said, does my mother have to support the 'meritorious officials' of the Wang family? Or, can't my mother instruct the concubines to work? Is she not qualified to teach a concubine and a concubine? Seeing that the concubine is being raised crookedly by my mother, I can't do it.

Make a sound?"

Wang Zhiyao arrived just in time and stood calmly at the door. "Why didn't I know that there were concubines in the Marquis Guanwen's mansion? Isn't Aunt Yin an official slave? When did she get rid of her status as an official slave? Why didn't I hear any news?

Well. Will the Fifth Sister be able to get a concubine in two days? If Aunt Yin feels that it is hard to serve my father and it is difficult to add more heirs to the Wang family, you can tell my mother directly that the Wang family has enough people who want to serve my father.

Sir, my mother is not an unreasonable person, and she will definitely not force Aunt Yin who is unwilling to do so."

"Father, do you think I was wrong?"

Wang Zhiyao stepped aside and gave up her position. Behind the door curtain raised by the maid, Wang Yixin stood upright. There was no look on his handsome face that he was making decisions for his concubine and his son, and he avoided the eager eyes of Aunt Yin and others.

, said slowly: "Let's have a meal."

"Father, if you don't explain it clearly, how can you use this meal? I don't understand why our family is so different from Yan Shenggong's mansion. Can concubines be divided into good and bad? Can official slaves become good citizens? When will the emperor

Given such a will?"

How could Wang Zhiyao let Wang Yixin interrupt her? Didn't Wang Yixin pretend to respect his wife and despise his beloved concubine? At this time, he didn't stab Wang Yixin hard to apologize to the Jiang family, and he didn't take advantage of Wang Yixin's pretense to seriously injure Aunt Yin and others.

, isn’t she working in vain?

Wang Yixin's brilliant eyes fell into deathly silence, looking at Wang Zhiyao who was looking at him blankly, "Yao'er..."

Wang Yixin didn't understand what she saw in her eyes. Seeing his beloved concubine suffer, and his beloved son and daughter being tortured, he really felt sorry for her. However, in front of Wang Zhiyao, any reason he gave seemed like sophistry and he had no confidence.

He can face the Jiang family, but he dare not face the Jiang family's daughter.

Aunt Yin fell to her knees, lowering her head with tears in her eyes, and apologized: "Miss Qi is right, I am not a good family, and I am not as good as anyone who sells myself into a slave. It is my blessing to be able to serve the fourth master... Madam, I have just been

If you said something wrong, you have to teach Master Han what you need to teach him, he is your son..."

Wang Yixin stepped forward in a few steps, trying to help Aunt Yin up, but then felt it was inappropriate and walked to Jiang's side with a hint of pleading on his face, "Yu Chan, aren't we having a reunion dinner today? Don't stop.

I am angry with the Yin family."

Jiang's heart tightened, she had never seen Wang Yixin begging for herself...Wang Zhiyao asked innocently: "Father, do you mean that Aunt Yin said something wrong? Yes, she admitted that she did something wrong, mother,

For your father's sake, please punish Aunt Yin 'lightly'. If your mother is too soft-hearted to punish you, how can you help your father take care of the backyard? If you don't clean up your house, you won't separate your wives and concubines, my father.

He will be impeached by the censor."

"good……"

Jiang was awakened by Wang Zhiyao, "Since Aunt Yin knows your mistake, and Fourth Master also pleads for you, I will punish you by kneeling outside for two hours. If you dare to be as unruly as you are today in the future, I will not punish you by kneeling again."

Instead, we directly take action on family matters."

"And you." Mrs. Jiang got Wang Zhiyao's signal and turned to face Wang Duanhan, "What you just did really disappointed me. I think you don't need to eat this meal. Copy the scriptures again and calm down."

, you have such a hot temper, you will suffer a big loss if you become an official in the future, and if you cause a big disaster, I will be implicated by you."

Wang Zhiyao nodded repeatedly, "Yes, Mrs. Yan Shenggong taught me that a common son will make a big mistake, except for the three clans. The aunt's family is one of them. Mother, you must teach the common son carefully. This is also for the sake of my grandfather's family.

."

What can Wang Yixin say? Can he say that he will not let Jiang punish his beloved wife and son?

Jiang's reasons for punishment are very sufficient. Besides, Aunt Yin is very 'virtuous' and 'humble' in admitting her mistakes. Since she has admitted her mistakes, can she not be punished?

"Let's have a meal."

This is the third time Wang Yixin has spoken about having a meal, and this time he said it to Wang Zhiyao.

Everyone can see who is in charge of the overall situation.

Jiang was the spear that Wang Zhiyao held in front of her. There was no one else but Wang Zhiyao who gave advice to Jiang.

Not only Wang Yixin was shocked by Wang Zhiyao's progress. Wang Zhixuan was now sure that Wang Zhiyao was possessed by a lonely ghost who came from nowhere... She grew up with Wang Zhiyao, and it was impossible for Wang Zhiyao to say these words.

Wang Zhixuan frowned slightly. It was so terrible, so terrible. Just thinking about Wang Zhiyao hiding a vicious and trouble-making soul in her body made Wang Zhixuan feel cold all over.

The evil spirits could not be allowed to destroy the harmony of the Wang family. Although Wang Zhiyao felt sorry for Aunt Yin who was punished to kneel, she wanted to expel the evil spirits from Wang Zhiyao's body and awaken the obedient seventh sister.

"Fifth sister, are you feeling unwell? Why doesn't your face look good? Are you still tired from preparing meals?"

Wang Zhiyao didn't care at all whether Wang Zhixuan discovered that she had traveled through time. The two of them were naturally opposites. If Wang Zhixuan wanted to get ahead, he would definitely step on his legitimate daughter. Even being a "fellow countryman" could not stop them from making suggestions for their biological mothers.

Wang Zhixuan herself has traveled through time and space and is a ghost. How dare she tell others about it?

"I just didn't expect Seventh Sister to say such a great truth." Wang Zhixuan looked happy for her sister's progress and smiled sweetly at Wang Yixin, "Father, do you think Seventh Sister has become different from before?

?You used to be worried that Seventh Sister was too naive, but today I see that you don’t have to worry about her at all. Even I, who have been used to reading classics since childhood, don’t know the truth and rules that Seventh Sister said."

As expected, Wang Yixin frowned and glanced at Wang Zhiyao suspiciously. The change was a bit big...

Jiang held Wang Zhiyao's shoulders and said: "Some people can only read dead books, and some people can draw inferences from one instance. I know that people should look at each other with admiration after three days of separation. Don't you understand? Yao'er has always been very smart, and she didn't want to do it before.

I'll learn from your wisdom..."

Wang Zhixuan opened her mouth. Jiang was also very talkative. What's going on? Could it be that Jiang was also possessed by an wronged soul?

"I haven't had time to talk to Fourth Master about going to Yan Shenggong's Mansion." Mrs. Jiang showed a bit of pride in her daughter, "Aunt Chu likes Yao'er very much, so she gave her to Yao'er to be the direct branch of the Kong family."

The scroll and the writing brush are the same as those used by Yan Shenggong."

Wang Zhiyao showed her shyness as a lady and said in a low-key manner: "My great-aunt is very kind, and the sisters of the Kong family are very kind and kind. Suddenly, I have several more sisters who sincerely protect me."

Jiang believed in her, so what else was she afraid of?

Wang Zhiyao felt warm in her heart, and her desire to fight for the Jiang family became even stronger. Even without the original owner's entrustment, she would make the Jiang family no longer confused and deceived and despised in this life.

Wang Yixin said in surprise: "Mrs. Yan Shenggong values ​​Yao'er?"

"Yes, I like Yao'er so much that I treat her as my granddaughter and let her often go to Kong's house to play."

"Where is the gift that the Kong family gave to Yao'er?"

"Here, it's just sitting on the table."

Mr. Jiang pointed casually, and there were two simple boxes placed on the round table. At first glance, they looked like gift boxes that would only be used by a very sophisticated and well-established family.

At this time, Wang Yixin couldn't care less about his beloved concubine and son. He walked to the round table in a few steps. The box was engraved with the emblem of the Kong family... He opened the gift box and found an ancient book and a used jade pen... He was not a scholar.

, it is difficult to understand their admiration for Yan Shenggong.

No matter how proud he is, he is still a junior student in front of Yanshenggong and the Kong family.

After Wang Duanchun saw the jade pen in his father's hand, his face flushed with excitement, his breathing became rapid, and his eyes exuded a burning and eager light. The brush used by the Kong family? Yan Shenggong?

"It's true, little sister, how can you place the brush casually? You should..."

"Yes, you should cherish it."

Wang Yixin agreed with Wang Duanchun's words for the first time, and his legitimate son was a little more pleasing to his eyes. Even Wang Duanhan, who had always hated Wang Zhiyao, showed his approval at this time. However, he still resented Wang Zhiyao and did not come forward to appreciate the jade used by Yan Shenggong.

Pen.

At this time, the veins in his hand holding the writing brush bulged. If he could also go to the Kong family, he would definitely gain much more than Wang Zhiyao.

Even the stupid and domineering Wang Zhiyao was favored by the Kong family. He and his sister were even more valued by the Kong family. It was all because of the narrow-mindedness of the aunt and her bad treatment of the concubine.

As long as they were praised by Mrs. Yan Shenggong, their identities as brothers and sisters would immediately change. My sister Wang Zhixuan would definitely marry into a high family. Wang Duanhan said regretfully: "It's a pity that the fifth sister didn't go."

In the imperial dynasty, except for Gu Sanshao, almost everyone regarded the Kong family as the residence of a saint.

Wang Zhiyao replied lightly. "No matter how good the fifth sister is, she can't enter the Kong family. My great-aunt doesn't like concubines very much, so I only asked my direct granddaughter to accompany me that day... It's a pity."

She looked at Wang Zhixuan and said word by word: "Who said you were not born from my mother? Although Buddhism says that all living beings are equal, it does not say that all are created equal."

Reincarnation has always been a technical job.

Although Wang Zhixuan pretended to be very indifferent and calm, her envious eyes betrayed her, and she was stimulated by Wang Zhiyao. Wang Zhixuan felt even more sad:

"Seventh sister can call Mrs. Yan Shenggong grand-aunt? Seventh sister said this, does she know? Don't let outsiders misunderstand that you are shamelessly seeking the Kong family. Even if the Guanwen Hou Mansion is not as good as the Kong family, it is not ordinary.

generation."

Wang Zhixuan simply did not believe that Mrs. Yan Shenggong, who had always cared little for outsiders, could value Wang Zhiyao. Wang Zhiyao must have lied and deliberately brought up the reputation of the Kong family... As for the gifts, what Jiang said was untrustworthy. The Kong family only did it because Wang Zhiyao was pitiful.

Give it as a gift.

In short, it is impossible for Wang Zhiyao to get something that even she cannot have.

Wang Zhiyao used to be a fat pig. Idiot, now there is a ghost hidden in his body. Are all the Kong family blind? Just because Wang Zhixuan is a concubine, do you endorse Wang Zhiyao? To gain reputation?

"Fifth sister, don't you believe me?"

"No, I'm just worried that Seventh Sister is young and energetic and may cause others to misunderstand her."

"When other sisters see that their sister has benefited, they all sincerely praise her and are happy for her sister. The fifth sister first suspected that I was telling lies... Now, are you still my biological sister? Have you never been the most indifferent and loving me?"

"..."

Wang Zhixuan dug her nails into her flesh, and Wang Zhiyao could pretend better than her.

"Brother, there is no need to envy me. In two days, I will go to the Kong family with my brother. Then my great-aunt will also have gifts for my brother. If my brother can also get gifts from the Kong family, I wonder if the fifth sister still thinks that I am

Are you talking big words with a shy face?"

"Can I also go to Duke Yansheng's Mansion?" Wang Duanchun's face turned red with excitement. He glanced at his concubine brother next to him and suppressed his excitement, "Only I can go?"

"There's me too."

Wang Zhiyao happily ran to Wang Duanchun, "Mrs. Yanshenggong treats my mother as a niece, so she will naturally treat my mother's own flesh and blood as her grandchildren. Even if people she doesn't know come up to her with a shy face, my aunt and grandmother won't even bother to pay attention. By the way.

, it’s my grandmother’s birthday in two days, and I have something good to give to my grandmother. It’s a gift from the two of us, and I’m sure my grandmother will be moved to tears.”

Wang Duanchun was relatively simple and knew that he was a bit dull and boring. He was worried about not thinking of a birthday gift for his grandmother. When Wang Zhiyao said that he had a good gift, he nodded and said: "Okay, we will give it to my grandmother together then."

Mrs. Jiang sighed silently, her daughter was too smart and her son was too simple, so it would be fine if they both neutralized each other.

They were chatting in the room, and no one paid attention to Aunt Yin who was kneeling in the wind and snow. Although she chose the corridor to kneel, it was winter now, and when the cold wind blew, no matter how many clothes she wore, she couldn't bear it.

use……

Originally, Mrs. Jiang and Wang Zhiyao wanted to deliberately find trouble at the dinner table to torment Aunt Yin, but now that she was kneeling outside, she naturally ate the meal peacefully.

It's just that during the meal, Wang Yixin's face was not very good-looking, and he looked very stern. His beloved son was punished by copying scriptures, and his beloved concubine was punished by kneeling. How could this meal be used well?

Wang Yi's confidence was so tight that he cared about his beloved son and concubine, and tasted the food carefully prepared by Wang Zhixuan without knowing how to taste it.

However, Wang Yixin's pain is where Wang Zhiyao's happiness lies. At the dinner table, she is the only one who eats the most and the sweetest food.

When having tea after the meal, Wang Zhiyao said with a smile: "Fifth sister is good at cooking and the food she makes is delicious. Will you please work harder to cook for me in the future? Anyway, this is not difficult for you at all."

"

Wang Zhixuan gritted her teeth, "I'm not a cook? Why should I cook for you?"

PS Ye and his good gay friends all believe that it was too easy for wives to have concubines in ancient times. There were too few and far between, such as Long Keduo and Li Si'er. In an environment like the Wang family that values ​​'concubines'
