After giving way to my husband's sweetheart

Chapter 15
On the second day, as soon as Luo Fu got up and tidied up, the little girl from Luo'an Hall came to send a message, saying that Mrs. Tai invited Luo Fu to come over.

Luo Fu was going to Mrs. Tai to intercede for Sima Chuge yesterday, but she never wanted to be entangled by Mrs. Wang. Today, Mrs. Tai ordered someone to invite her. She left Yu Nuan to look after the house, and quickly took Lan Tian to Luo Fu. Andang.

Last night, Mrs. Tai learned that Luo Fu was embarrassed by Mrs. Wang on the way to her place. Seeing Luo Fu, she hurriedly asked her to sit beside her, and asked straight to the point: "I heard that you were coming to my place yesterday. Was punished by the boss on the way?"

Luo Fu replied truthfully: "My mother-in-law really wanted to punish me, but the eldest son arrived later, but he didn't hurt me."

Mrs. Tai patted Luo Fu's hand, and said with distress: "Such a little person like crystal will suffer such grievances just at the age of [-], it really makes people feel distressed."

As soon as Mrs. Tai finished speaking, Love knelt down on the ground.

Mrs. Tai hurriedly helped her up, and said: "Grandmother knows that you feel wronged, but this is what a daughter-in-law is like. I'll just mention your mother-in-law later."

After hearing this, Love replied in a muffled voice, "Grandma, I'm not wronged for myself."

Mrs. Tai's eyes moved slightly, and she tentatively said: "Then you are doing it for Ge'er?"

Luo Fu looked up at Mrs. Tai, and said slowly: "Although I am not a granddaughter of my grandmother, my grandmother can really love me. Geer is your granddaughter. I beg my grandmother to take pity on her. Don't let her Enter the palace."

Mrs. Tai sighed slightly, and replied: "Even grandma can't decide on this matter."

Although Mrs. Tai has been ignorant of worldly affairs for many years, brothers Sima Zhengde have always respected their mother. If Mrs. Tai is willing to take the lead in this matter, Sima Chuge will surely escape this disaster.

Mrs. Tai murmured: "I remember when the Sima family sent Yu'er into the palace, she hugged me and cried for several days. She cried until her voice became hoarse and her eyes were swollen to the point that she couldn't open her eyes. I didn't feel soft-hearted."

"Back then, Chao'er's grandfather was just an ordinary hunter before he started his family. In just a few decades, our Sima family was able to surpass those wealthy noble families with hundreds of years. Only we know the hardships best. It was bought with the blood of the men of the Sima family and the tears of the women."

"Nowadays, the Sima family has less than one person and more than ten thousand people. It seems that the scenery is infinite, but behind this scenery is also an abyss. One step further is life, and one step back is death."

Mrs. Tai looked at Luo Fu and said slowly: "Son, can you understand? So, no matter how much grandma loves her granddaughter, she will support the Sima family to send her to the palace."

This point, Love understands but also does not understand.

Their Luo family used to be a family of power, but their parents would not ignore her happiness.

I still remember that before the Luo family fell, someone persuaded my father to send the beautiful girl into the palace to invite him to be favored. Not only did my father become ashamed immediately, but he also refused to associate with that person ever since.

This is the difference between a careerist and a scholar.One is interested in power and interests, and for this, he can sacrifice his life and family affection.One is about integrity, even if you risk your life and wealth, you will not lose your integrity.

After Mrs. Tai finished speaking, she pulled Love and said, "Let's go, I'm going to offer incense at the family temple today, you can go there with me."

The aunt lives in the family temple now, and Luo Fu is naturally willing to go. Although she failed to convince Mrs. Tai, she did not give up the idea of ​​saving Sima Chuge from the bottom of her heart. She took this opportunity to meet with her aunt so that she could discuss it again.

Luo Fu went out with the old lady, and the second door was killed, and the carriages and horses had already been prepared.

Just as Luo Fu was about to help the old lady into the car, she happened to run into Sima Rui who had just returned from a trip.

Sima Rui stepped forward and greeted the old lady respectfully. The old lady smiled and said, "Aren't you busy today? Why did you go home so early?"

Sima Rui replied: "I know my grandmother is going to offer incense today, so I came back after finishing some important things. It's chaotic outside. I will protect my grandmother and go to the family temple."

Sima Rui is the son of the old lady's only daughter.

When Sima Chao's grandfather started his family, he did not hesitate to marry his daughter to the leader of a tribe in the grassland. She took it back, but Sima Nu was already pregnant. She gave birth to her son in Sima's mansion and died.

In order to make up for his debt to his daughter, Sima Chao's grandfather gave her son the surname Sima, which was Sima Rui.

Although Sima Rui is of foreign blood, but perhaps he followed his mother, he does not have the sturdy appearance of a prairie man, but he was born like a jade tree, with a face like a crown jade, with the appearance of an elegant and noble son.

Sima Rui and Sima Chao are the same age, and they have been raised under Mrs. Tai's knees. In the whole house, the two brothers are most favored by Mrs. Tai.

Mrs. Tai looked at her grandson, her face turned into a flower with a smile, and she muttered: "Rui'er is caring, very good!"

Saying that, Mrs. Tai introduced Luo Fu who was beside her to him and said: "This is your second aunt's niece, and now she is Chao'er's daughter-in-law. Her name is Afu, do you recognize her?"

Sima Rui hurriedly replied: "My cousin used to come to the mansion to play when she was young, of course I recognize her."

As he said that, Sima Rui gave Luo Fu a deep salute: "My cousin is polite."

Love is not Sima Chao's official wife, and Sima Rui didn't call her little sister-in-law, but called her cousin, which made Love sound more pleasing to the ears.

She also simply called Sima Rui her cousin: "Cousin is polite."

Sima Rui helped the old lady into the car, and then helped Luo Fu into the car, while he rode a horse to protect the car. Together with several servants and guards, a group of people left Sima's mansion in a mighty manner.

Since marrying Sima Chao, it was the first time for Love to go out of the house. She sat in the car, quietly opened the corner of the curtain and glanced at the market outside.

Sima Mansion is located in the west of the city, which belongs to the bustling area of ​​central Beijing. There are many dignitaries, majestic palaces, and numerous wine shops. When you leave the west city, you will see a world of ice and fire. All you can see are thatched cottages, and the streets and alleys are full of ragged clothes. In the older generation, there are countless people who sell their sons and daughters with straw ropes in the market.

Seeing a Chinese cart coming, those poor and crazy hungry people, regardless of the guards' obstruction, begged into the cart one by one with their dirty arms open. Seeing that the guards couldn't drive them away, Sima Rui took out a bag Throwing the copper plates far back, those hungry people let go of the colorful carts and scrambled to grab the scattered copper coins on the ground.

Mrs. Tai glanced at the misery outside, she sighed slightly, and muttered to herself: "Now the emperor's feet are like this, I don't know how miserable it is outside."

Madam Xu, who was accompanying Mrs. Tai, echoed: "I heard that people in those villages outside starved to death and froze to death, and I can't even look at them. It's already empty. Nowadays, strong and strong men either join the army or go to the mountains to become bandits in order to survive. .”
