I became a god after resigning

Chapter 260 One Daughter, Two Marriages

Because of the emperor's marriage, Xu Shusheng didn't go out in the afternoon, but stayed at home.

Song Ci also figured out his name.

Xu Shusheng's name is Xu Miaosheng. There used to be a senior official of the second grade in his ancestors, but he was demoted because he offended his colleagues, and his family fortune gradually declined.

Xu Miaosheng's wife's family name is Feng, and her name is Feng Qiurong.

Feng Qiurong has two older brothers, so he is called Feng Sanniang. Feng's father had an old relationship with Xu Miaosheng's father, and they were married by finger-to-heart since they were young.

Father Feng was also a sincere person, and he did not break the contract because of the decline of the Xu family, but still chose to marry his daughter to Xu Miaosheng.

This Feng Qiurong looks beautiful, unparalleled in beauty, a rare beauty, attracted countless young talents in Jiangyin County to covet him, but he did not expect to marry a poor scholar in the end, but the fact is so, it is in vain.

That Feng Qiurong is not only beautiful, but also has a very good character. She manages the family well. Although the whole family is a little poor, she manages it in an orderly manner.

Unexpectedly, a few days ago, Feng Qiurong suddenly became seriously ill and became bedridden. Xu Miaosheng consulted all the famous doctors in Jiangyin County, but he couldn't figure out why, and finally died.

Xu Miaosheng could only bury his wife in grief, but just two days after the burial, someone came to report that Feng Qiurong's tomb had been dug up.

Only the thief left a Pisces lotus mirror. This mirror was a token of love he gave to his wife. After his wife passed away, it was used as a funeral object.

After Xu Miaosheng knew about this, he was distraught, angry but powerless, so he could only hold a mirror to remember.

And that Shi Sheng was originally the son of the housekeeper. The two grew up together. Because of the family's decline, the housekeeper had already been dismissed and returned to his hometown.

After the old butler knew about this, he thought of his old relationship and sent his son to Xu's mansion to help out.

It was also thanks to Shi Sheng who helped him to run back and forth, otherwise Xu Miaosheng was a scholar and really didn't know what to do.

It is said that a scholar who is useless is a bit exaggerated, but it is not completely wrong. Xu Miaosheng held a mirror and blamed himself all afternoon.

Song Ci also took the opportunity to look at the bronze mirror carefully, but found nothing special.

And Song Ci also knew that Xu Miaosheng shouldn't be the owner of the Heaven Swallowing Jar, otherwise he wouldn't be troubled by this matter.

Taking advantage of this time, Song Ci looked around carefully.

He found that the place he was in now was not like a memory recall, nor an illusion, but a bit like traveling through time and space, and came to the past time and space, but because his own state was very special, no one could see him, that's all. It is also for this reason that Song Ci collected the previous information.

When Song Ci returned to Xu's mansion, he unexpectedly found that there was one more person, and he couldn't help but feel a little vigilant. It seemed that he couldn't run around, otherwise he might accidentally miss the clue he wanted.

The person who came was also a scholar named Wu Qingyuan. He was a classmate with Xu Miaosheng, so they should have a good relationship. Xu Miaosheng called him brother Qingyuan.

And he came to Xu Mansion to invite Xu Miaosheng to attend another classmate Wan Jiadong's concubinage banquet.

When Xu Miaosheng heard this, he hesitated for a while and then said: "It's better not to, my wife just passed away, so I'm in bad luck, so as not to offend the newcomer."

"Hey, what you said is wrong. Brother Wan won't care about these things. We are scholars, so how can we believe these deceitful rumors? Look at how free and easy that brother Wan is. A few days ago, my concubine just died, and today I'm going to kill you." Taking in a new concubine, saying it is a joy, how unrestrained, you have to learn more from Brother Wan."

This Wu Yuanqing was short and stocky, with a very sonorous voice, and when he spoke, he made a slight noise and was full of energy.

After what he said, Xu Miaosheng hesitated a little, he also had contact with this Wan Jiadong on weekdays, when he got married, this Wan Jiadong even came to ask for a cup of wedding wine and brought a big gift with him.

"But Brother Wan didn't invite me, I went rashly, isn't it too impolite?"

"Brother Wan didn't invite you. I thought he came because he knew about your wife's new funeral. He was in a bad mood. If you could go, he would not be happy in time, so how could he be rude?" Wu Yuanqing continued to persuade.

But when he heard the words of Madam's new mourning, Xu Miaosheng thought about what he said just now, and asked curiously: "Did Brother Wan's concubine also die?"

"Yes, I heard that he is the most favored concubine, Brother Wan is very sad." Wu Yuanqing said indifferently, the status of concubines in ancient times was low, and they died when they died.

However, what he said was a bit inconsistent. As soon as the concubine died, he took in a new concubine. Is this also a way of expressing grief?
"Oh, life is impermanent, why..." Xu Miaosheng became sad again when he heard the words.

"Stop, stop..." It was obvious that Wu Yuanqing understood his temper and immediately interrupted his words.

"I've heard about today's incident. Don't you know that Wantong's pawnshop belongs to Brother Wan's family? What do you want to inquire about? It's not just a matter of asking Brother Wan to come forward?"

"Yes."

Xu Miaosheng was taken aback when he heard the words, and then stood up in surprise.

Seeing his appearance, Wu Qingyuan smiled and asked, "Will you still go with me now?"

"Go, of course I'm going, wait a moment, I'm going to prepare a gift, I can't come to the door empty-handed." Xu Miaosheng said happily.

So Xu Miaosheng went back to the study room, took out a calligraphy and painting from the painting vat, caught sight of the bronze mirror on the table, and stuffed it into his arms.

Then Xu Miaosheng followed Wu Qingyuan and went out to the street, walked through the streets and alleys, and finally came to a high gate compound.

The concierge in front of the door obviously knew the two of them, and greeted them warmly from a distance: "Master Wu, Master Xu, you two rare guests..."

"As long as you have a sweet mouth, it's no wonder Brother Wan often praises you." Wu Qingyuan laughed.

The young concierge smiled even more when he heard the words, and hurriedly humbled, but he couldn't hide the joy on his brows. What he didn't know was that this was just Wu Qingyuan's casual remarks, and Wan Jiadong didn't know him at all. who is it.

The two entered Wan's Mansion, which was even bigger than Xu's Mansion. Under the guidance of the servants, they walked for almost half a stick of incense before arriving at a small courtyard.

Wantong is just a concubine, so naturally he won't put up lights and festoons, make a big fanfare, everything in the whole Wanfu is as usual, only when he came to this small courtyard, he saw a hint of joy, and from time to time there was a burst of noise from the guests.

The two walked into the courtyard, and saw about twenty or thirty scholars gathered together, drinking and reciting poems, making a lot of noise, while Wan Jiadong sat on the main seat, watching this scene with a smile.

Seeing Wu Qingyuan and Xu Miaosheng coming together, he was taken aback for a moment, then greeted them with a smile and let them sit down, but they didn't get up.

Song Ci observed Wan Jiadong, he was tall and tall, with white face and red lips, and a rather delicate appearance, but his cheeks were pale, his eyes were cloudy and lifeless, and he looked like he was overindulgent.

The two presented gifts, found an empty seat, sat down, and chatted with the students around them.

Xu Miaosheng wanted to talk to Wan Jiadong several times, but he didn't find a suitable opportunity.

Everyone drank and had fun for several hours, and they all drank a little too much, so someone made a fuss and asked Wan Jiadong to call out the newly married concubine to let everyone see how beautiful she is, which fascinated Brother Wan.

Wan Jiadong pretended to decline, and then asked the servant to call out the concubine.

And Song Ci noticed that since Xu Miaosheng came, Wan Jiadong has been paying attention to Xu Miaosheng's expression, and now he showed a rather malicious smile.

"Master..."

With a coquettish call, a charming woman came slowly.

The woman was wearing a red wedding gown and a golden phoenix crown on her head. The ancient wedding gown was not casual, and this attire obviously did not fit the status of a concubine.

I saw this little concubine with a plump body, and she was full of coquettishness between glances. When she caught a glimpse of her, she felt her heart warm up, and the alcohol dissipated a little.

And Xu Miaosheng was so surprised that the wine glass in his hand dropped, he stood up and exclaimed: "Ma'am."

Then you have to step forward and grab the opponent's wrist.

But she was dodged by the woman, she smiled coquettishly, snuggled into Wan Jiadong's arms and said with a coquettish smile, "Mr. Xu, I am Liansheng, my concubine, not your wife."

"No, no, you are my wife Feng Qiurong, I will not admit it wrong, Qiurong, you don't recognize me anymore, I am Miaosheng..." Xu Miaosheng was about to pull, but was stopped by Wan Jiadong.

"Brother Xu, I know you miss your wife very much, but this is my concubine Liansheng, not your wife, please don't be rude."

"No, I won't admit it wrong. Ma'am, you have a mole on the inside of your right wrist. Show me a mole."

Xu Miaosheng reached out to push Wan Jiadong away to pull the woman, but was pushed to the ground by Wan Jiadong.

At this time, those who had seen Mrs. Xu Miaosheng all showed surprise, including Wu Qingyuan, but none of them helped Xu Miaosheng speak.

As for the wife Xu Miaosheng was talking about, sitting on the main seat, she looked at Xu Miaosheng with a smile, seeing that he looked like a madman, she seemed to find it very interesting.

This farce ended quickly, because Xu Miaosheng was directly kicked out of Wanfu.

"How could this be? How could this be? How can a person come back from the dead, Madam is a virtuous and virtuous lady..."

He was devastated, walked out of Jiangyin City in a daze, and headed towards the wife's cemetery outside the city. Song Ci followed all the way and watched all these farces. He is now sure that the concubine is definitely resurrecting her soul from the dead body. She is that person, but Xin is no longer.

Now I just don't know how that ordinary bronze mirror became a chiseled mirror.

Xu Miaosheng walked more and more sideways, and when he was about to reach the cemetery, there was a burst of joy in his ears.

"The emperor marries, idlers avoid~"

There were bursts of yelling, and Xu Miaosheng subconsciously stood on the side of the road.

I saw a group of welcoming teams coming slowly, some were welcoming guests, some were beating gongs, some were raising flags, some were holding umbrellas...

The whole team was huge, but the strange thing was that apart from the sounds of suona, gongs and other musical instruments, there was no human voice.

What's even more weird is that in front of the team, there is a group of people, shirtless, with fierce masks painted on their faces, dancing silently.

Under the watery moonlight, this weird welcoming team looked even more intrusive. Xu Miaosheng, who was in a daze, seemed to be a little sober after being hit by it.
