Chapter 145 The marriage has twists and turns(1/2)
Rong Cheng's face turned blue quickly. He took the catalogue in his daughter's hand and read it. The family jewelry was because he loved his cousin at the time, and thought that the son Rong Lu, whom they had, was born in vain, and his future inheritance was limited, so he gave it to her privately, leaving it to Rong Lu's wife. He also told her not to take it out so that Rong Jin felt uncomfortable when she saw it.
My cousin promised to do it well at that time, and she has never shown it out for so many years.
Unexpectedly, she actually became accused of it.
Rong Jingqiu saw his father's expression ugly. In order to clear his relationship, she said again, "The owner of this pawnshop had some business dealings with the Zhuangzi before, and the fruits and vegetables that were found in the Zhuangzi were also sold by him. This time, when I saw Aunt Fu as a thing, I spread the word to the manager of the Zhuangzi. I asked them to sort out this directory. After looking at it, I felt something was wrong, so I came to tell my father."
After hearing her explanation, Rong Cheng looked at his daughter with a confused expression: "This matter has nothing to do with you. I know it as a father. You don't have to worry too much, just go back first."
"Yes, dad."
Rong Jingqiu was blessed and retreated. As for whether her father would think wrongly, she really couldn't care. Anyway, she wanted Aunt Fu to be unlucky, and this was not finished yet.
Not long after his daughter left, Rong Cheng took the catalogue to Ning'antang to confront Aunt Fu.
Fu Faniang was very happy at first, thinking that her cousin had finally forgiven her, so she dressed up beautifully to meet her husband. However, as soon as she met, her cousin smashed a booklet at her. She was stunned and didn't know what had happened?
"Pick it up and take a look." Rong Cheng was so angry that he pointed at the booklet that fell to the ground.
Aunt Fu's heart beat very quickly. She squatted down and picked up the booklet that hurt her. She didn't know if she didn't read it. She was shocked when she saw it. There were catalogs of jewelry that were also pawned. Her face gradually turned pale, and her fingers tightly grasped the booklet, "This is a rumor, cousin, someone is trying to harm me, I..."
"Then take out the family jewelry I gave you. As long as you can take out this part, I will believe you." Rong Cheng didn't completely believe in the one-sided words of his eldest daughter. After all, the relationship between his eldest daughter and Aunt Fu is very deep, and it is not ruled out that she may frame her.
Aunt Fu immediately stood there. How could she take out those things now? The most valuable thing on her is the Rong family jewelry. Although the style is a bit old, it is of no value.
When she was young, she saw her aunt wearing it, and she was envious at that time. Later, after marrying her cousin, she knew that Rong Jinshi had not been able to get these ancestral things, so she rubbed her cousin to give it to her. In the end, her cousin really gave her a lot. Even if she couldn't wear it out, she was very happy when she thought that Rong Jinshi could not get her things and she got it.
Now that I think about it, I feel sad. She sobbed, "Cousin, I..."
Rong Cheng now knew that his eldest daughter Rong Jingqiu had not framed her. This cousin put his sincerity under her feet. If she cared about her son Rong Lu, she would not do such a thing.
"Cousin, you really disappointed me."
Without swearing or quarrel, he turned around and left.
Aunt Fu hurriedly took her husband's hand with tears on her face, "Cousin, listen to my explanation, I can't do anything about it. If she, Jin, was willing to give the Fu family some help, I wouldn't take these as a way, I..."
It's okay if the Fu family is not mentioned, but when Rong Cheng is mentioned, he is angry and throws away Aunt Fu away. Regardless of her embarrassment, she said angrily, "She is the daughter-in-law of the Rong family, and her heart is towards the Rong family. Unlike you, she only cares about your parents' family. The Fu family is so good. I will send you back tomorrow and let you be hugged with your parents' family all the time, okay?"
Aunt Fu was stunned. Is your cousin going to divorce her?
"Cousin, don't..." she shook her head violently.
Rong Cheng took a deep breath, feeling depressed in his heart. He didn't want to see Aunt Fu's unlucky face again. He lifted his foot and left without saying a word.
After her husband left, Aunt Fu couldn't help but cover her face and cried bitterly.
Madam Gou reported these things to Rong Fu, and Rong Fu just sighed. Since the incident between Ye, none of her things has gone smoothly. Now she thought she was the most comfortable when Ye was in charge of the family. Now that it was Rong Jin, her life has plummeted.
"Forget it, go and see her, just say it was me. As long as I am still here, she will still be the concubine of the Rong family."
Madam Gou took the order to pass on this, but after hearing this, Aunt Fu still couldn't stop crying. What she wanted was not the identity of a aunt, but her cousin's favor for her.
After receiving the wind, Rong Jin was so happy that she could eat an extra bowl of rice. But as she ate, she put down the dishes and said, "No, I have to let her redeem these things, I..." She immediately got up and went to discuss with Aunt Fu.
Rong Lu, who was having dinner at the same table, looked embarrassed and embarrassed. He lowered his head and digged the rice silently. He knew everything his mother did. His legitimate mother did not hide it from him, which made him feel even more ashamed.
He is a descendant of the Rong family. No matter how the Fu family is, he will still be a foreign family. Now his mother wants the foreign family and doesn't want his own son. Otherwise, why would she treat everything her father left him specifically?
Rong Jingqiu picked up a chopstick of vegetables for Rong Lu and looked at him, "Don't think too much, this is a lord's business, it has nothing to do with you." He took out what Rong Cheng said to her to comfort Rong Lu.
Then she got up and pulled Rong Jin back to the dining table, "Mom, all the money has fallen into the pocket of the Fu family. Even if you go to kill her, she will not be able to redeem it."
Rong Jinshi originally wanted to say that this was all the property of the Rong family. When was a concubine's turn to deal with it? But when she glanced at Rong Lu, her words immediately changed, "Is this what I will leave to Brother Lu's daughter-in-law in the future, and will it be cheaper for the Fu family?"
Her anger was not as great as it was. After all, she was a daughter of a prince, so she had never seen any good things. She actually didn't see the family jewelry. Rong Cheng would not easily move the real good things, and they were still hidden in the warehouse. Those were all from her son Rong Hong.
Rong Ma also persuaded him, and Rong Jin then looked like he was relieved.
At this moment, Rong Cheng walked in.
Rong Jingqiu and Rong Lu quickly stood up to salute. After Rong Ma became blessed, he turned around and asked someone to add more dishes.
Rong Cheng had just heard something outside. When he heard Rong Jinshi say that he would leave those for Rong Lu to marry his wife in the future, he felt ashamed. He was in vain to be a villain. Rong Jinshi was much more arrogant than he thought.
At this moment, he looked at his wife with a rare guilt, and he just wanted to admit his mistake.
Rong Jinshi was stunned for a moment. It was rare to see her husband's emotional side towards her. She felt a little embarrassed. She personally served her husband to sit down and wash his hands and face, as if she was as attentive and calm as she was when she first married.
Rong Cheng kept watching her actions, recalling the stunning look when she lifted the veil at the beginning, her eyes softened a lot.
When Rong Jingqiu saw that the couple seemed to have taken a step forward in their relationship, she called Rong Lu and pulled her sister-in-law Rong Ma out. At this time, they should not be the extra candle.
He took the two back to the East Cluster Courtyard and asked Lin Lan'er to invite Rong Jingji, and they had dinner together.
When Rong Jingji came, the meal had already been arranged.
Rong Jingqiu waved and said, "Come on, come on, I'll wait for you."
Rong Jingji pursed her lips and smiled.
When Rong Lu saw her sister, she hurriedly got up to greet her. Rong Jingji touched her brother's head and asked about his homework in a gentle voice. Then she stepped forward to salute Rong Ma's sister-in-law.
Rong Ma was a little uncomfortable. She always avoided this illegitimate sister-in-law, in order to avoid her mother-in-law's suspicion that she was getting close to Aunt Fu. However, now seeing that Rong Jingqiu is fairly close to her, she also gave her a gift with face.
"Everyone sits, I won't talk about those false rituals today." Rong Jingqiu, as the host, asked everyone to sit down.
During the meal, the atmosphere was quite warm, and no one opened his eyes to mention the despicable topic of Aunt Fu. Rong Jingji said more than usual, but her frown was still deeply locked. After all, Aunt Fu was not good, she was her biological mother.
Without children around, Rong Cheng and Rong Jin had a warm dinner.
After the meal, Rong Cheng asked someone to lift a large jewelry box up. He said to his wife with a little embarrassedly, "This is all the family jewelry she is a family jewelry. I have redeemed it. You can take it to Curry, and you will arrange it in the future."
Rong Jinshi didn't expect Rong Cheng to move so quickly. She went up and opened it, turned her head and looked at her husband again. Her husband avoided her gaze in shame. When she turned her head, she raised the corner of her mouth and handed it directly to Madam Hua to go to the warehouse.
When he came back after finishing all this, Rong Cheng held her hand for the first time, "I used to be ridiculous, but I won't know anymore. After this incident, I can see who is considering the Rong family. Madam, I have wronged you before."
Rong Jin did not expect to hear this sentence in his lifetime, and tears filled his eyes, "Husband..."
That night, the couple regained their feelings of getting married.
The next day, when Rong Jingqiu came to the main room, she saw Rong Jinshi's face flushed, and she had already guessed something in her heart. It seemed that she and her father were really breaking the ice. It would be better for Rong Jinshi to be divorced. Instead of being a grudge in the deep boudoir, it would be better for her to truly show off her face.
This is how her marriage with Zhao Yu in her previous life. It is impossible to separate anyway, so try to have fun.
"Mom looks several years younger, like a big girl." She joked.
Rong Jinshi looked embarrassed and reached out to pat her, "Even you are looking for your mother's happiness, it's time to hit her."
After the mother and daughter told a few jokes, Rong Jingqiu realized that her father had redeemed the family jewelry that Aunt Fu was a member of the family. In fact, when she handed over the catalog to her father, she guessed that Rong Cheng would do this. After all, these circulating had an impact on the reputation of the Rong family, and there were also marks of the Rong family on it, which could not be concealed.
"It's good that way. After this incident, Aunt Fu's status in her father's heart has plummeted."
Rong Jinshi sneered, "It's a bargain for her."
She wanted to drive Aunt Fu out of the mansion completely, but this could only be thought about it.
Just as Rong Jingqiu was busy dealing with Aunt Fu, something happened to Bo Jingran.
Old Master Bo sent representatives twice, bringing completely different opinions.
In the first letter, Mr. Bo was happy that his grandson could marry the girl from the Marquis of Dingyuan. With such a Yue family, it would be much easier to go on an official career in the future. So he gave his grandson a long list of betrothal gifts and sent Bo Jingran's uncle to propose marriage and hiring on his behalf. He also gave his grandson a visit to invite the veterans of the three dynasties, and the current imperial teacher, Taishi Dou, came to talk to the media.
When Bo Jingran saw his uncle arrive, he was full of excitement. The uncle and nephew had a good relationship and had a long talk all night. The Bo family was very satisfied with Rong Jingqiu's future niece-in-law and praised his nephew for his good vision.
Bo Jingran had a happy smile on his face, and the woman he liked was of course very good.
Just as the uncle and nephew were discussing which day to go to Rong's house to propose marriage, Old Master Bo's second letter arrived.
The wording of the second letter was much more severe, and he directly criticized Bo Jingran for being unfilial, and that without a queen is the greatest, it would be useless for the Rong family girl to have children. He also expressed his dissatisfaction strongly, and said that his grandson lied to him. The Rong family girl's character was not as good as he said, and this marriage must be done. As for the betrothal gift she brought, it was turned into a gift to repent to the Rong family. In short, he did not intend to turn against him, but it was impossible to get married.
The loyal servant of the Bo family, who was afraid of coming late, said, "The old man was very angry and asked the youngest 800 miles to come and stop the marriage proposal." He didn't know how many horses he had killed along the way.
Bo Jingran held the second letter in his hand, obviously suppressing the anger in his heart.
But Uncle Bo stepped forward and patted his nephew's shoulder, "Jingran, it's not that my uncle refused to help you. No one can change the things your grandfather believed to have. He doesn't recognize this granddaughter-in-law. Even if you marry someone back, you can't enter the ancestral hall and you will still harm other girls. Then she will be your wife or concubine?" After saying that, she sighed softly.
But Bo Jingran looked at the loyal servant, "Tell me what happened to my grandfather's change of mind." He had to know where the root of the matter was, and why did the rumors in the capital spread to my grandfather's ears? He didn't want to mention these things, but now that my grandfather knew, he had to explain them clearly, otherwise, as my uncle said, he forced Rong Jingqiu but could not let her enter the Bo family, which was a harm to her.
The loyal servant was the Changsui who served Mr. Bo. He was smart and knew what the grandson, who was most beloved by the old man, asked at first glance. So he told me what happened after Mr. Bo started to go north, mainly because of some visitors. Until he talked about the visit of Mr. Gui from Jiangnan Xuezheng, the old man immediately wrote a letter asking him to come to stop the marriage.
Bo Jingran and Uncle Bo looked at each other, and the key to the problem lies in Jiangnan’s academic affairs.
"This Lord Gui is really a dog who medds nostalgic business with rats," Uncle Bo said angrily, "What's wrong with your marriage?"
Bo Jingran naturally recognized this scholar-official master, but he had no grudges and grudges with the other party. Why did he hinder his marriage?
"I'll ask someone to check the origin of Lord Gui."
He only knew that Lord Gui was from the capital. Because he admired his grandfather's knowledge, he often came to his home to ask for advice. He was a friend of his grandfather. He used to be quite kind to him as a junior. He really couldn't figure out what he meant to do this.
Anping quickly found out Lord Gui's family background.
Uncle Bo picked it up and looked at it, "I didn't expect that Lord Gui is from a famous family in the capital, but their Gui family and the Rong family have no grudges. What does this mean to prevent our two families from getting married?" Not only did he have no grudges, but he was not even a political enemy.
Bo Jingran looked at the lights of thousands of houses outside the window with his hands behind his back. He was puzzled by this problem. Looking at the person who could not be beaten by eight poles, he jumped out to do something disgusting.
Rong Jingqiu has been waiting for Bo Jingran to propose marriage for a long time but has not arrived. Until now, he has not felt something is wrong and he has been slow to react.
Even Rong Jinshi felt strange and asked her husband Rong Cheng privately, "Wou Jingran has repented her, right?"
Rong Cheng told her not to think about it. She always had to tell her elders about this marriage. How could the younger generation make decisions privately? Jiangnan is so far away from the capital, and it always takes time to go back and forth, so she can't hurry.
Rong Jinshi thought this and made sense, so she felt relieved.
