Chapter 220 I’m not afraid of you making fun of Xuanjia, I just love my daughter
The withered color of Yongchang Earl's Mansion seems to have green shoots emerging, and then the old image will finally be replaced.
But Chongfu is a different story.
Chong Mansion is located in a slightly remote location. The houses here are naturally relatively cheap. Mrs. Chong ordered the book boy to carry the drunk Chong Bingwen into the house.
Her eyebrows were deeply furrowed, which made her look particularly mean. After seeing Chong Bingwen being fed sobering tea, she returned to her room with the book boy who was waiting beside Chong Bingwen.
"what happened?"
The book boy lowered his head and did not dare to speak.
Mrs. Chong asked coldly.
"Did he go to see that vixen again? Tell me!"
The book boy trembled with fright and quickly knelt on the ground.
"Old Madam, Mrs. Song is very heavy and has been feeling unwell these past few days. It is inevitable that I will be worried."
Mrs. Chong smiled coldly.
"If you feel unwell, go see a doctor!"
"Bah! It's just that he's been smitten. The vixen outside sees that my son is a Jinshi and has a bright future as a scholar in the Hanlin Academy, so he clings to him! He has no good intentions. He won't be allowed to see him again no matter what.
"
"Remember this, if I see you once, I will break one of your legs. How many legs can you break? Did you hear me?"
The book boy was only twelve or thirteen years old. When he heard this, he said sadly: "I heard it, I heard it."
The book boy left tremblingly.
"Old madam, why are you so angry?" The mother-in-law squeezed her shoulders.
Mrs. Chong couldn't help but feel anxious when she thought of Xuan Ai.
"I've been feeling anxious these past few days. Why do you think Brother Zhong's daughter-in-law is still staying at her parents' home?"
The mother-in-law comforted her: "I guess I can't bear to miss my family. Don't worry, old lady. Madam Wu has already gone to invite someone. Grandma is filial and will come back naturally."
Mrs. Chong sneered.
"Missing the family? What did you say? The Chong family is her home right now."
"In the past, when she looked at Xiao Jing, who knew how she planned me in her heart? If it weren't for my in-laws to support Brother Wen, why would I not even dare to show off my mother-in-law's favor in front of her?"
On the surface she loves Xuan Ai, but in the end she has many opinions.
After all, Xuan Ai's status is too noble. She cannot be taken lightly or taken seriously.
"My nephew's wife has been pregnant for only half a year, but she is lucky and hasn't had any movement at all."
If not, she would have dealt with the goblin outside long ago.
After all, it's Xuan Ai's fault. If she had been more successful, why would Chong Bingwen be obsessed with the person outside?
Although annoyed, the old lady gave her orders in the end.
"You go over there for a trip later. You are already seven months old after all. Bring some more supplements. I didn't want to drink the blood swallow that Xuan Ai gave me last time. You can take it with me too. Give me some more."
Please, let her not hook up with my brother. For the sake of the child, I am willing to give her face, but if my son's future is ruined because of her, I will have to pull out her skin!"
But her heart was beating fast again.
"That in-law's wife is very arrogant. If she knew, the sky would collapse. How could I dare to neglect her daughter?"
When she said this, she became angry.
The Chong family is not a big one, but it is respectable, and the house is adequate.
Until, Xuan Ai enters.
After all, it was the noble girl who acted like this, and there were dozens of maids, young men, and mothers-in-law around her. Even the dowry was piled up in the whole yard, so that the Chong family could not accommodate it.
At that time, Xuan Ai was thinking about things and was in a dilemma.
I thought that using a small part of the dowry, I would buy the small house next door, knock down the wall, and merge it into one place, which would be an easy arrangement.
She went to see Mrs. Chong at that time.
Mrs. Chong happily held her hand, expressing her true feelings. She never lowered her face and said that she was not sure, but the meaning was revealed between the lines.
——You are a housewife, but maybe you are young and have not thought carefully. You expanded the house as soon as you entered the house and lived in a comfortable place. But if you act like this, I am afraid that my son will be laughed at in the officialdom.
——He is a promising person, and he will naturally not let you down or let down the Yue family in the future.
This is also true.
Xuan Ai had no choice but to send some people back to the Earl's Mansion of Yongchang.
But!
Those slaves were sent back by the Xuan'e family again.
Xuan'e slapped her in the face because he loved her!
Madam Chong still remembers what Mrs. Xuan E said.
——When we got engaged, we met openly with my uncle. Before we got married, the dowry list included all the slaves who were going to be married. When you, the in-laws, looked at it, you didn’t even say you didn’t want to do it.
——Yes, I admit that there are indeed many slaves, but it turns out that they were the ones serving my sister in the Xuan family. I am just a daughter, and I can’t bear to treat her badly. I’m not afraid that you will laugh at the Xuan family because they love their daughter. The other girls have
Out of fifteen servants, my sister had thirty. Other girls wear gold and silver, but my master bought a gold shop when she was born.
——Now that we are married, I am afraid of embarrassing my in-laws, so I don’t make any excessive demands. My uncle only needs to have a smooth official career and treat my daughter well. Sister Ai has to pay for this house thing herself. Why can’t it be done? Again?
Why should you worry about what others say? My uncle is promising and will be able to slap those talkative people in the face in the future. My wife, do you think so or not?
What can she say!
Every word of Xuan E's words was blocking her mouth.
Countess Yongchang is really amazing. She can only smile uglier than anyone else.
Finally, the small house next door was bought by Mrs. Zhuang, who was beside Xuan Ai, and she went to the government to register. She was steady and considerate. She was specially allocated to Xuan Ai by the Xuan'e family, so the title deed was naturally registered in Xuan Ai's name.
Down.
Back then, after Xuan Ai accepted the land deed, she didn't think much about it. For her, it was enough to buy a house so that someone could live in it. But for Mrs. Chong, it was extremely uncomfortable.
Tangled in the heart, like a lump in the throat.
Especially when I heard someone talking behind my back.
——This talented man from the Chong family has reached the sky in one step by marrying a girl from the Xuan family.
——It can be considered that the Chong family has benefited from their daughter-in-law.
Fortunately, in the past two years, Xuan Ai's temper has become softer and softer, whether intentionally or unintentionally.
Very easy to handle.
Seeing Mrs. Chong's resentment, the mother-in-law hurriedly persuaded her: "Our father holds the position of editor in the Hanlin Academy. He is from the sixth rank. He is a promising person! He will be a high official in the future. Who dares to look down on him?"
Madam Chong's expression did not improve.
"It was a compilation two years ago, why is it still a compilation now? The Xuan family doesn't know how to make plans for him!"
She seemed to have forgotten all the benefits she had gained from the Xuan family over the years. It was not easy to get into the Hanlin Academy. If Yongchang Bo had not been the guarantee, it is still open to question whether Zhong Bingwen would have been able to get into it.
While the two were talking, they saw Mrs. Wu who was sent to Xuan Mansion coming in with a panic look on her face.
"Old lady."
"what happened?"
Mrs. Zhong looked behind her and did not see Xuan Ai. Her face darkened at that time.
"Where are the people?"
Mrs. Wu lowered her head.
"I haven't seen Grandma at all."
"...I was kicked out by the Xuanfu people. I told the old slave to get out."
Mrs. Zhong's heart skipped a beat and she stood up suddenly.
"What!"
