The New Year's Eve is gradually approaching in the world of ice and fire inside and outside the capital.
This New Year, the Wen family seemed much deserted than before, naturally, except for the previous year.
Wen Qiong, He and Wen Tingyuan were not in the capital. Wen Qiongrang was actually detained on the New Year's Day. Specifically, it was because someone participated in his bribery of money for the Mo River embankment construction during his tenure in Zhejiang.
It is said that there is an emperor and a courtier, not to mention that the current emperor and the former emperor are apparently father and son, but in fact they are enemies. The evaluation of these officials during the late emperor's period should have turned a blind eye. The key is
It's because he can't win the heart of the current saint.
But unfortunately, Wen Qiongrang had not been able to grasp the thoughts of the Holy Emperor, nor could he think of a way to express his position. He had been going around in circles when he encountered such an impeachment and was detained.
Moreover, Jin Yiwei was directly deducted.
This made him and others wonder whether the Wei family in Zhao Prison had confessed something.
Except for a few people, no one else knew that Wei was dead.
In the Wen family, except for the Wen Zhao brothers and half of Wen Qiongrang, no one else cares about her life or death.
The Wei family was involved in the purge of the remnants of the Seventh Prince when the new emperor ascended the throne. They were very lucky not to involve many relatives and friends. Now, they still have no ability to help the Wei family.
The Wen family is even more eerily calm about this matter.
The eldest wife, Mrs. Wen, had been very proud for a few days since the Wei family was taken away by Jin Yiwei. She came out wearing a big cloak every day to help take care of the affairs of the mansion, even though she said that the Chu family was no longer suitable to manage the mansion.
Medium feed.
Now the Wei family is considered a stain on the second wife. Wen Qiongrang is running out day after day. The two brothers are afraid of being implicated and dare not go to the Zhenfu Division to inquire. They also feel that their life is aggrieved now. In their own small courtyard
, all noisy.
Even if Mrs. Wen just said this, Mrs. Chu had no intention to care about those things anymore.
Wen Shouyi has been out with her parents all these years, and there are two or three pleasant people in front of her. She knows nothing about Nanbian'er's affairs, and she has no control at all.
She had no right to interfere with her parents-in-law's affairs, and she didn't know what exactly Wen Qiongrang and the Wei family had done to cause such a big fuss. She didn't even know if her husband's affairs were involved.
I had long been frightened in my heart, and had to deal with my husband's bad temper and the gossip of those women, so I no longer had any intention of competing with Mrs. Chen at first.
As soon as she let go, the second bedroom became even more silent in the Wen family. Up to now, it was even worse than the third bedroom. In other words, the Wen family's small courtyard was quieter than theirs.
It's just that Mrs. Wen's foundation was damaged after all, and she couldn't support it after two or three days. She had no choice but to lie down. Before lying down, she didn't forget to lift Yuan Xueqing up.
Clearly he was worried about Mrs. Chen being in charge of things alone, and of course he also wanted to prevent Ms. Zhou and Qiao Yuyan from taking advantage of the loopholes.
Mrs. Chen is always accustomed to adapting to the changing circumstances. Seeing that no one in the house is interested in celebrating the New Year, she doesn't bother to put so much thought into it.
Although Yuan Xueqing had been in charge of the family before, she had just started to take charge of the Wen family. She had no idea what was going on inside and was pushed to take office. Even if she had the intention, she was powerless.
What's more, after the last conversation with Qiao Yuyan, she felt very uncomfortable.
I've always been a little bit unmotivated.
The Zhou family in the third room was jumping up and down very much. Who would have thought that Wen Qiong, the unmotivated one, was suddenly blocked by a gambling house and actually owed the gambling house more than 4,000 taels of silver.
In the end, the couple knelt at the door of Yi'anju and begged the old lady for help. Xin's mother took out the old lady's jewelry and asked them to use it to pay off the debt.
These things all happened in front of everyone's eyes. No matter how thick-skinned Mr. Zhou was, he was hiding in his yard with his tail between his legs and not going out.
Not to mention Qiao Yuyan, who basically only had occasional interactions with Mrs. Wen, or went out to visit her parents' house.
The rest of the time, I just send the maid to Yi'an Juli every day to say hello.
Even Mr. Wen couldn't help but sigh that this year's Chinese New Year was almost as good as last year's.
This is the second time Qiao Yuyan has come back to celebrate the New Year. Both times it was deserted, and she was actually a little depressed.
What's more, I couldn't be with the people close to me twice.
Not to mention being locked up in that small courtyard last year, Wen Tingyuan was not around, and neither were his parents.
Wen Tingyuan has another mission this year and is in Nanzhili. She is also a married woman, so it is naturally impossible for her to return to her uncle's house to celebrate the New Year.
Even on Chinese Valentine's Day, they are already married, but I came over here a few days ago, combing my hair in a woman's bun, with a more mature charm in the corners of my eyes and eyebrows. It can be seen from the little actions between the young couple that the relationship between the couple should be
Not bad.
Pinlan seemed to see the loneliness in Qiao Yuyan's heart, so she smiled and brought the colored paper over, "Girl, I heard that during the Chinese New Year in Jiangzhou, people had to cut colored paper, and the slaves couldn't do it. I think Grandma Wang should
Yes, let’s cut ribbons and play! During the Chinese New Year, our yard should be lively.”
Qiao Yuyan came back from her boredom and realized that others were also secretly looking at her, and her heart warmed slightly.
Among these people who are serving, there are many relatives who are far away from each other. Compared with myself, it is actually more difficult to reunite.
For them right now, she is the center of their happiness, anger, sorrow, and joy. She is so depressed that it will also make the people below have a bad New Year.
So he cheered up and cheered: "This is a good idea. Not to mention grandma, even I can do it. Although I am not good at needlework, you all secretly say that I am clumsy. I can't do it today."
I want you to see my handy side."
Sure enough, everyone became happy when they heard her say this.
Grandma Wang simply gathered two braziers, lowered the thick curtains, and gathered them all together, regardless of whether they were first or second class.
Although Qiao Yuyan spoke such lofty words, when it came to cutting off her hair, she was no better than Pinlan, so she was ridiculed by everyone again.
He laughed happily and felt that the atmosphere was much better.
It happened that Mrs. Wen came over to see her again and pulled her in with him.
They have always had a good relationship, and Wen also knew that Qiao Yuyan managed the people in the yard well, and they were all women, so they didn't have too many scruples, so they actually participated together.
Except for the poor cutting of the first few, the later ones are actually more delicate than Qiao Yuyan's.
This is a person who is naturally skillful.
Such liveliness really made Tao Ranxuan's atmosphere much better, but it also irritated the eyes of others.
