Zhou Chen slammed the table, startling everyone in the room. Wang Ruofu, who originally wanted to persuade him to make peace, trembled and looked at his son-in-law in fear.
"Yuancai."
Yuan Cai, who was outside the hospital, immediately ran in quickly.
"Master Hou!"
"Send aunt out properly."
"Yes, Lord Marquis."
Yuan Cai agreed, then looked at Aunt Kang calmly, bent slightly and said, "Mrs. Kang, please."
"you you……"
Aunt Kang was trembling with anger, and her whole face wrinkled together.
In fact, Aunt Kang's appearance is not bad, and she is very good at dressing up. Coupled with her coquettish appearance, in modern times, she is also a mature and charming woman that many people can like.
But at this moment, she was really furious. She didn't have any charm at all. Especially the way she couldn't express her anger was even more funny.
"Sister, sister."
Wang Ruofu stood up in a hurry to comfort him, and then looked at Zhou Chen with dissatisfaction: "Master Hou, my sister is an elder, you shouldn't talk like this."
Zhou Chen replied lightly: "Mother-in-law, what I told you is the truth, and she wanted to leave on her own. She also said that she did not dare to come to the house again. What does it have to do with me?"
"you……"
Wang Ruofu also didn't know what to say to Zhou Chen, so he had no choice but to comfort his sister.
But Aunt Kang didn't accept her favor, and instead pushed her away.
"Sister, I understand now that I am your biological sister. Look at how your daughter and son-in-law treat me. The noble family is beyond my reach, and I will never dare to come here again."
With that said, she didn't have the nerve to stay any longer and left angrily.
"Sister, sister."
Wang Ruofu hurriedly chased her, but Aunt Kang ignored her at all. After a while, she came back with a bad look.
"Master Hou, Hua'er, my sister is a little too much, but you can't treat her like this."
Hua Lan said in a dissatisfied tone: "Mom, you were just nearby. Didn't you hear what she said? The officials said they would arrange a ninth-grade errand for my cousin, and they would find ways to take care of him in the future.
But my aunt still dislikes it. Cousin Jin and Gu Erlang are incomparable. This is no longer an excessive thing, it is simply embarrassing."
"Mom, if you think about it carefully, Changbai Hanchuang studied hard for so many years and finally got a first-class Jinshi in high school, but he only started from the eighth grade. Dad is also a Jinshi, didn't he also start from the ninth grade? My cousin Jin is
Yes, but he is not good at studying and martial arts. If you can give him a ninth-grade position, you have really taken special care of him. Isn’t this satisfactory?"
Wang Ruofu suddenly had nothing to say, because everything his daughter said made sense.
"Oh, that's the truth. I didn't expect that she would make such an exorbitant request, but it's really not easy for my sister."
Zhou Chen suddenly said: "Mother-in-law, I also know that it's not easy for my aunt, but it's not easy for me either. You only see that I have been promoted, but you don't see the dangers I face. I don't know how many people there are in the court now."
, staring at me overtly and covertly, trying to find my faults and hit me."
"If I rashly give that cousin a high position and get caught by the officials, I won't be able to explain it clearly. I'm not very afraid, but I'm afraid that it will hurt my father-in-law and Chang Bai. They are both
If the Qingliu civil servant is implicated because of me, it will only be the Sheng Mansion and the Hou Mansion that will be injured in the end."
"So, mother-in-law, are you willing to see that in order to help Aunt Kang's family, both of us end up with bad results?"
Wang Ruofu looked horrified and asked stammering: "No, it's not that serious, is it?"
"Why is it not serious? If you think about it carefully, if you can really arrange official positions for people at will, the imperial court will be in chaos. Which of the princes in the imperial court dares to arrange their descendants and relatives to high positions? What's more, the Jin Dynasty
My cousin is just a civil servant and is not qualified to be an official at all. If I lift him up by force, it will only harm everyone."
Zhou Chen described the situation as very dangerous. Wang Ruofu couldn't stand being scared. After hearing this, his face turned pale.
"Is this really the case? If so, sister, she still insists on Master Hou doing this, hasn't she considered us?"
Zhou Chen shook his head and said, "I don't know about this. Maybe my aunt knows, maybe she doesn't."
What he said was so ambiguous, Wang Ruofu's face turned even more ugly.
