Ninefold Purple

Unexpectedly, mother and Wang Yingxue turned out to be old acquaintances!

For a long time, Dou Zhao couldn't figure out why some women would rather abandon their families and not be famous in order to live together with men.

Is the love between men and women really so important?

Once love is cut off, a man abandoning a woman and returning to the family is a prodigal son returning, what about the woman?

How can I continue to gain a foothold in this world? [

She and her mother sat in the small hall behind the nave, listening to the voice of grandfather reprimanding father in the hall.

Experience tells Dou Zhao, do not overestimate or underestimate your opponent in everything you do.

In all honesty, Wang Yingxue is not only shrewd and capable, intelligent and quick-witted, but also good at judging the situation. She always puts her interests first, and she is very decisive and never procrastinates when she decides.

For such a person, the grandfather promised to accept her as a adopted daughter, and found a good marriage for her, and the Dou family paid for her, and married her in a grand manner.Why does she still have to follow her father?

The Dou family is not a shallow family of newly promoted officials. With her status, the Dou family would never agree to let her be a concubine.The mother is the first wife of the Zhao family's Ming media. Don't say that there is no fault, even if there is a fault, for the face of the Dou family, the Dou family will not just divorce their wife.

Didn't Wang Yingxue think about it carefully when she came to make up her mind?

This is not in line with her character!

While thinking about it, Dou Zhao was shocked.

younger sister!

Her younger sister, Dou Ming, was born on the third day of the seventh month of the Dingwei year.

As the saying goes, live seven but not live eight.

In other words, if Dou Ming was born prematurely, Wang Yingxue would be admitted in the first month at the latest.

According to the system, when the wife dies, the husband must observe filial piety for one year.There are exceptions.The husband goes to war, the wife dies, and the family members take care of their parents and raise their children, and they can continue within a hundred days.Although my father is not a soldier, but my grandmother died young, if my mother... a member of the family presides over Zhongfu, this is barely available.

In other words, the mother died years ago.

But what if Dou Ming was not premature?

Dou Zhao couldn't help laughing.

Wang Yingxue was about to gain a foothold in Dou's family, even if she was killed, she would not admit that she had an affair with her father.

Father still wanted Wang Yingxue to come in, no matter what, he would not reveal to anyone that Wang Yingxue was pregnant.

It's like you are betting with someone, and you are about to open the board, but suddenly you find that there is a floor-to-ceiling mirror behind your opponent, and you can see clearly what cards he is holding. [

Her blood boiled immediately.

As long as the mother is alive, the longer the delay, the better the situation will be for them!

But the premise is that the mother must be alive!

She happily took a golden orange from the fruit bowl by the table and handed it to her mother: "Mother, eat oranges!"

Mother smiled reluctantly at her, took the orange, but just held it in her hand in a daze.

Dou Zhao colored clothes to entertain relatives.I broke off the orange petals and stuffed them into my mother's mouth, and fed them to the eldest and third aunts who sat with them in the small hall.

The eldest aunt and the third aunt teased her with a smile in order to ease the atmosphere.

She chirped and giggled.

A smile gradually appeared on the mother's face.

At night, she fell asleep holding her mother's skirt.

The next day, the third uncle, the sixth uncle, the eldest aunt who was the clan's wife, and the third aunt who was the assistant housekeeper of the eldest aunt came over with the second wife of the East Mansion, who was also the grandfather's second cousin.

Grandfather's eldest cousin, eldest sister-in-law and second brother have all passed away.

"I've heard what your nephews and nephews and wives have said about the matter." The second wife's wife is thin and thin, but her eyes are surprisingly bright, which makes her look a little dignified, "Where is Miss Wang? Have you ever sent someone Going to Nanwa to deliver the letter?"

"I'll let Mrs. Ding accompany you." The grandfather said bitterly, "Nanwa sent someone to report overnight." Then he said shamelessly, "Second sister-in-law, I taught Zifang about this..."

"I'll talk about these things later." The second wife interrupted the grandfather with a wave of her hand, "The most urgent thing is to ask where they have come!"

The second lady got the point right.

Dou Zhao admired it very much.

The grandfather opened his mouth in astonishment, probably thinking of his father's absurdity in this matter, and kept silent.

The second lady told the third uncle: "Wan Wan and you are like father and son. You can ask about Wan Wan." Then she told the eldest aunt, "Miss Wang, you can ask."

The two responded in unison and split up.

The second lady beckoned to her mother and signaled her to sit beside her: "Without the Zhao family, there would be no Dou family. The master and wife of the Zhao family left early, and the uncle is young and thin-skinned, so he doesn't care about these things." , but the elders of the Dou family are still there! Don't worry, you will never be wronged."

Dou Zhao has only one uncle, and his eldest mother is eight years old.The mother was a posthumous child, and the grandmother died of illness when the mother was ten years old, and the mother grew up with her elder brother and sister-in-law.When the grandmother was alive, she took the two children to live without worrying about food and clothing, but she was afraid that Ding Fu and Poppi would come and make trouble.At that time, the Dou family was already prosperous, so the grandmother often brought two children to visit the Dou family. They were in-laws, and the Dou family established a family with generosity. The two families became closer. Uncle Zhao Si studied in the Dou family school since childhood He has a very good relationship with Dou Shiying, Dou Wenchang, Dou Yuchang, and Dou Huachang's uncles and nephews.The parents' marriage was settled without any disturbance. [

Hearing Mrs. Ertai mention her dead parents, my mother threw herself into Mrs. Ertai's arms and cried.

The sixth uncle was four years older than his father. The two studied together since they were young, passed the entrance examination together, and failed the township examination together. At this time, they were studying behind closed doors at home.Seeing her mother crying sadly, she couldn't help being a little embarrassed, and whispered: "Why don't we sit in my uncle's study? Some words, we uncles won't be very happy!"

The second lady glared at her, and said in a loud voice, "You went to the capital with Wan Wan, do you know about it?"

Uncle Six flinched in fright, and hurriedly said: "It's none of my business, it's none of my business! If you hadn't asked me to come back early, how could Wan Yuan have caused such trouble?" He muttered softly, his tone With a bit of disapproval.

The second wife was so angry that she didn't speak for a while.

The sixth uncle, Dou Shiheng, is the old son of Mrs. Er Tai. When he was born, several brothers had already achieved success in their careers. Mrs. Er Tai did not treat him as harshly as her other sons. It happened that his father was the only son. , the grandfather is strict on the surface, but in fact he is doting. From brother to brother, the two have the closest relationship.Dou Zhao remembered that after his father moved to the capital, he reserved a small yard for his sixth uncle, and every time the sixth uncle went to the capital, he stayed with his father.The two later worked together in the Imperial Academy.My father was good at teaching "Book of Changes", and my sixth uncle was good at teaching "Zuo Zhuan". People in the Hanlin Academy jokingly called them "Dou's Twin Heroes".

Mother was taken aback.

Knowing that the second lady wanted to help the sixth uncle eliminate the suspicion, she said politely: "It's going to rain, and my mother is going to get married. Wan Wan has his own mind, so what's the use of the sixth uncle staying close to each other?"

The second wife's face turned pale, and she scolded the sixth uncle: "Thank you, brother and sister!"

Uncle Six saluted Mother.

Mother was busy returning the gift.

Dou Zhao's eyes flickered.

Since Uncle Six didn't have a word of apology or words of comfort, it could be seen that he was on his father's side.

The second wife may have realized it too, and got up to greet everyone: "Let's sit in the small hall behind!"

Leave the hall to the men of the family.

Of course there is no objection.

The mother and the third uncle helped the second lady to get up, and a young man ran in: "Old man, the steward of the Marquis of Jining posted a greeting, saying that his wife and our seventh grandma are related by marriage. This time, I came back to visit my relatives and came to pay a special visit." .”

Everyone was stunned.

Dou Zhao was even more surprised.

Isn't Mrs. Hou Hou of Jining the mother-in-law?

Why did the mother-in-law come out to join in the fun?

"It's the elder sister of the Tian family in Xiliu Township." The mother happily explained to everyone, "Their family and our family are old acquaintances of Bian Jing, and our ancestors were also married. It's just that Uncle Tian's official fortune is good, and Tian's sister married to Jingdu. Jining Hou Mansion, the two of us have lost contact with each other now. I didn't expect her to come to see me!" After finishing speaking, he looked towards his grandfather.

Since there are visitors from afar, I have to let the matter of my son go.

The grandfather thought for a while, and asked the boy to invite the steward of the Jining Marquis Mansion to come in.

The steward of the Marquis of Jining handed over the box and was polite, knowing that Mrs. Marquis of Jining had a busy schedule, so she decided to visit at the beginning of the morning tomorrow.

The mother didn't care about the affairs in the hall, and ordered Madam Yu to clean the dust, furnish the room, and draw up the menu.

Dou Zhao sat alone on the kang and broke his fingers.

I wonder if Wei Tingyu will follow?

The mother-in-law said that they met when they were young, could it be this time?

While thinking, she saw the third aunt hurried in.

She called Tuoniang: "Hold me, go to mother!"

Tuo Niang was overjoyed: "Miss Si, you can talk!"

Dou Zhao was stunned, and it took a while to react, and told her: "Hurry up, hurry up and enter the door before the third aunt."

"Okay!" Tuo Niang happily responded, and carried her to her mother, "Grandma Seven is overjoyed, Miss Si can talk!"

"Oh!" Mother teased Dou Zhao with a smile, "Tell me something?"

Dou Zhao said generously: "I'm going to my uncle's house to play!"

Mother laughed.

Dou Zhao also laughed.

After all, it's not a real brother. Although the second wife helped the mother, she was more eager to let her son get rid of it.

What is the uncle like, you have to try it out.

The third aunt came in at this moment, Tuo Niang avoided going out, and Dou Zhao was still sitting on the kang.The third aunt squeezed Dou Zhao's little hand and said to her mother in a low voice: "If you ask clearly, they all say 'it starts with emotion and ends with reason'."

Mother scoffed.

The third aunt laughed: "You don't care if they are true or not! They said so, so we believe it. Since we are innocent, when the people from the Wang family come, we will just hand her over to the Wang family."

Mother nodded: "I understand."

A slightly flustered voice came from outside with a smile: "Master Qi, Grandma Qi is talking to the third wife..." Before he finished speaking, the warm curtain was raised with a "shua", and his father walked in with a livid face.

"Uncle Qi is back!" The third aunt smiled, and pulled her mother behind her, "Where are your third brother and the others?"

"Sister-in-law three." The father bowed hastily to the third aunt, with veins popping out of his forehead, "Grandma Ding hosted a family banquet in Xiaohua Hall, and Gu Qiu came after I changed my clothes."

The third aunt hesitated.

Mother put her hand on Third Aunt's shoulder.

"Sister-in-law San, you go first!" Mother said softly, "Uncle San and the others should be in a hurry. Wan Wan and I will come right away."

The third aunt winked at Nanny Yu, and walked out of the inner room with a smile.
