Rebirth of the Main Room Manual

Chapter 330
On the [-]th day of the twelfth lunar month, Wang Wenhui dressed up glamorously, and Dong Qingyun rode in a carriage to Feng Mansion to celebrate Mrs. Feng's [-]th birthday.

Feng Mansion was festive and lively, full of guests and friends, Dong Qingyun led Wang Wenhui to a side hall of Feng Mansion, and met Dong Qingyun's colleagues and their wives.

Everyone saluted each other politely and talked for a while. Because men and women had different seats at the banquet, Dong Qingyun entrusted Wang Wenhui to his wives. Naturally, everyone kept talking. One was wearing a sapphire blue satin robe, about 30 years old, with long hair The round-faced lady smiled and said:

"Your brother and sister let us stay here, you are guaranteed to be fine, so you can go drink with confidence!"

Dong Qingyun made a bow and said: "Thank you, sister-in-law Meng! Thank you, sister-in-laws!"

The men left, and others led the ladies to the back hall. The enthusiastic Mrs. Meng pulled Wang Wenhui all the way, chatting with her with a smile, and the ladies who were traveling with her occasionally interjected a few words, and everyone chatted and laughed. Laughing, the atmosphere is relaxed and happy, Wen Hui feels that the relationship between these colleagues and wives is quite friendly and harmonious.

Everyone saluted and congratulated Mrs. Feng, the birthday star, and then sat around in the hall with tea and fruits, and talked politely with each other about various topics between women. Although Mrs. Feng is over sixty, she is very good at taking care of herself. She is in her early fifties, radiant and full of energy, and she is talkative and cheerful. After accepting everyone's birthday greetings, she leads a few daughter-in-laws around, greets and talks with the guests, and laughs happily. happy.

When they were seated, Mrs. Meng saw that their table was full of middle-aged women, so she was afraid that Wenhui would feel uncomfortable, so she sent Wenhui to another table, pointed at the two young ladies around 20 years old and said with a smile:
"It's more appropriate for young wives to make a table, and there are more common words-this one is the eldest grandma of the Zhou family, and this is the third grandma of the Chen family. You are all of the same age, so sit together. Younger sister and younger sister of the Chen family, please take care of Grandma Dong Wu more!"

Grandma Zhou, who was wearing a begonia red brocade robe, and Grandma Chen San, who was wearing a crimson purple brocade robe, stood up quickly and supported Wen Hui to sit between them. Here, you can't go wrong!"

Grandma Chen San also took Wenhui's hand and said, "We both listened to them so much that we neglected Sister Dong's family. We should be punished!"

Wang Wenhui shook her head and said with a smile: "It's the first time I go out with my husband, I don't understand anything, please trouble my sisters!"

Grandma Zhou said: "Don't say that, we are all doing things together, and we should take care of each other. My maiden name is Chen, and she was originally a sister-in-law of the cousin clan, and her maiden name is Sun... and they, Get to know each other slowly, and after a few more times in the future, you will get used to it!"

The other young daughters-in-law at the table smiled and nodded to Wang Wenhui.

Just as Wang Wenhui wanted to be more polite and tell them her maiden name and first name, she heard Chen San's grandma, Sun, urging, "Huang Siniang, what did you just say? How will your aunt and cousin deal with that concubine's room later?" ?”

The woman called Huang Siniang was also in her early 20s, with a long face, wearing a lake green embroidered brocade jacket, and a set of red gold inlaid jewellery. She took a sip of tea and said:

"What else can I do with it? She is a good concubine, she can't be sold or killed, she can only be sent to the manor to be raised!"

"Oh, that's it? Didn't the son-in-law hurt her for nothing?"

"That can't be helped. The man dotes on the concubine's room, saying that childhood sweethearts can't be separated since they were young, so they sent them to the manor. The man also secretly went to visit from time to time, and gave them food and gifts. Dressed as if she has become a hero!"

"How hateful!"

"Is this man out of his mind? My son-in-law was murdered, and he went to pamper and protect her!"

"Oh! I don't know how to say it! Is it true that there are such people in the world?"

The dishes were not ready, and the young daughters-in-law were gossiping while eating tea and cracking melon seeds before the banquet.

Hearing that someone questioned the authenticity of this matter, a stout young daughter-in-law couldn't help saying: "You don't believe it, but I do! I have also seen such a case with my own eyes, which is similar to what Huang Siniang said. Almost the same situation!"

Then someone urged: "Yao Jiuniang, tell me quickly, what's going on? Could it be that the concubine's room is also used to harm the son-in-law?"

That Yao Jiuniang said: "Isn't it? It's just that I didn't succeed, but my cousin is not as weak and deceitful as the one I mentioned just now. Look at my figure, my cousin is a few pounds fatter than me, strong and powerful, She sensed that the concubine's house was playing tricks, and she wanted to set up a trick to make her fall and lose her baby, so she slapped her twice in a fit of anger, and the concubine's house's teeth fell out!"

Everyone laughed, and Sun said: "This is the only way to relieve hatred! The concubine's house is restless, and she will think of some monster moths all day long, making the family have no peace. If you don't hit her, hit anyone!"

"What's the use of just resolving hatred for a while?"

Yao Jiuniang said: "The good concubine that Huang Siniang mentioned just now was a childhood sweetheart with the man, and they were in love with each other. They were spoiled lawlessly, and my cousin-in-law took everything! He was even more unreasonable. The concubine gave and received in secret, and there was an affair, so I couldn't help but take the concubine home first, and soon became pregnant again, because of this, the marriage that he had made in the first place was cancelled!"

"Ah? So, your cousin-in-law was engaged before?"

"Isn't it? I heard she's a young lady from the Duke's Mansion!"

"Miss from the Duke's family? It's a pity, I don't know what kind of family your cousin's husband's family is?"

"It is said that it is a well-known family with a family of poems and books. There are several officials in the family. If he can marry the lady of the Duke's Mansion, he will be a high-ranking man! It is a pity that he is not so easy to talk to. I heard that he will do this. Such a thing, the woman will immediately withdraw from the marriage!"

When Wang Wenhui heard this, she suddenly thought of herself, her heart shrank suddenly, and she clenched her hands tightly in the armholes.

Grandma Zhou asked curiously: "Your cousin's husband took a concubine before he married, which is not proper in itself, and allowed the concubine's room to conceive and give birth to a concubine's eldest son before the mistress entered the mansion, which is even worse! They have retired , your Yao family caught up with him to get married?"

Yao Jiuniang looked a little embarrassed, and said: "Where is the reason to catch up with him? Speaking of which, my cousin's life is not very good. She is a widow, and she can't agree on a few things. Isn't this just enough?" !"

"I see! That's appropriate!"

I don't know who said this bluntly, and several people snickered, Yao Jiuniang didn't mind, and continued:
"But since my cousin married into his family, she has made him prosperous. He used to have a reputation for raising a son, but he didn't pass the Jinshi exam, and he didn't want to study anymore. Not long after we got married to my cousin, he got a decent job. Guaner, my cousin gave him another son, plus the other two aunts, now there are four heirs!"

Grandma Zhou was taken aback for a moment: "Besides that childhood sweetheart concubine, are there two other aunts?"

"That's right, that concubine looks delicate and weak, but she is extremely vicious and scheming. Before my cousin married in, she was the one who took care of my cousin-in-law's yard. All day long, she coaxed the maids with small favors and made the old lady The two girls I gave you as aunts were also pregnant. When my cousin entered the door, they formed a group and formed a heart, relying on the cousin-in-law to face them, and deal with the first wife together. Fortunately, my cousin It's not easy to bully. The cousin-in-law only cared about the concubines at first, but was taught many times by the old man of his family, and he also knows a little bit, knowing that he cares about the dignity of the wife!"

Grandma Zhou shook her head and sighed: "It's just such a bad day, how bad is it? How can you live it?"

Yao Jiuniang laughed and said, "That's fine too! After my cousin gave birth to a son-in-law, she bought two beautiful maids and gave them to her cousin-in-law as roommates. The cousin only raised her children every day, and went to see them when she had time. You fight over me, it's lively!"

Huang Siniang laughed: "Your cousin is a smart one! Hurry up and ask my cousin who can only cry and have no future to go to her to learn from her!"

"I really want to go, say hello and I'll take her there! My cousin is a bit edgy, but she's straightforward and hospitable!"

"But I don't know where your cousin's husband lives? What's his last name?"

"Hey, it's not far from my house. It's only three or four streets away. It's in the area of ​​Qingfeng Street. Does the Peng family know? There was a palace scholar in my ancestors. My cousin-in-law's name is Peng Qing. He is at home. Ranked second."

"Oh, so it's that family... I know it!"

At this time, the table was full of wine and dishes, and the small red peat stove in the middle of the table was burning vigorously. A pot of hot soup on top was overflowing with a burst of aroma. A girl helped to distribute the soup and vegetables. People picked up the bowls and chopsticks and slowly Taste and enjoy slowly, and forget about gossip.

When Wen Hui heard Yao Jiuniang say that her cousin's name was Peng Qing, her heart stopped bouncing, as if it happened hundreds of years ago and had nothing to do with her.

It was irrelevant in the first place, she had already divorced her relatives and married each other, and she almost forgot what Peng Qing looked like!
Sipping the hot soup bit by bit with a spoon, Wenhui quietly looked at the young women sitting around the table again through the dense steam. Smiling and calm, it is comfortable to look at. Looking back at their speech and attitude just now, you can know that these women should be able to talk and make decisions at home. At least, their status in the heart of their husbands is very important. , cannot be replaced!

Husband Dong Qingyun once said that his colleagues love their wives very much. If they have entertainment outside, they will bring their wives with them. They will not let their wives wait at home alone. I envy them, now I have a wife who I can pamper as much as I want...

Wenhui put a smile on her face unconsciously, her heart was extremely sweet, and the bad things she overheard had long been forgotten.

At this moment, she was very glad that she was able to be ruthless at the beginning, and with the help of her cousin Xia Yiqing, she returned the Peng family's marriage. She was also very grateful to her cousin. Not over her head!
