The ultimate rebirth of the abandoned woman

Chapter 160 Happy Events (Part [-])
"So that the Princess knows that the one who secretly bought Zhang Xianren was the second steward of the outer courtyard of the Cui family of Sanji."

Wang Youan simply gave the answer directly.

Three halberd Cui family?The direct descendant of the Cui family?
Xiao Nan's expression darkened after hearing this.Reminiscent of the tricks made by the Cui family of Sanji a few days ago, Xiao Nan could guess with his toes why they wanted to attack Xiaoliu's Zhuangzi.

Oh no, no, it should be more than Xiaoliu's.

Xiao Nan narrowed her eyes, it wasn't that she had persecution paranoia, it was because the successive incidents of the Cui family in the past year were too weird.

Whether it was the day lily that suddenly became daring, or Cui Dalang who was caught in the outer room, or the later Cui Qing who didn't know the truth, if there was no black hand behind these kinds of incidents, Xiao Nan would not believe it.

And why did the Trident Cui family always stare at this side?

Xiao Nan can also understand, who made the old lady's two big bets so accurate, and insisted on making her family more prosperous and prosperous than her own?

One family, two masters, two brothers, two Jinshi, it seems that they are not as prominent as the "Three Halberds" of the Cui family.But anyone who knows the officialdom and the Cui family knows what the real situation of these two families is like.

Having said that, we have to first explain what a 'halberd' is.Halberd originally refers to a weapon, but in the Tang Dynasty, it was a symbol of status, usually standing at the door of high-ranking officials, so it was called "door halberd".

According to the regulations, only officials of the third rank or above are eligible to stand in front of the door, and the reason why the Cui family of the three halberds is called the three halberds is because there are three fathers and sons in their family, or at least three of them, and they are of the third rank and above. senior officials.

If so, the Cui family of the three halberds is indeed more prominent than the Cui family of the two phases. After all, Cui Shouren and Cui Ze and his son are only second-rank, no matter in number or rank, they are one level lower than the Cui family of the three halberds.

However, those who are familiar with the Sanji Cui family will know that the five generations of the Sanji Cui family have no family divisions, and the total number of males in the family is six or seven times that of the Shuangxiang Cui family.

Divided by this denominator, which side is more prosperous can be calculated.

Another point is that the daughters-in-law of the bi-phase Cui family are all from aristocratic families, especially Cui Ba's wife is a dignified princess.

If the Nanping princess who will enter the door is added later, the Cui family will have two daughters-in-law of the princess, which is a powerful capital.

The princess may not be as decent as the princess, but they are all well-behaved, at least they will not meddle in the affairs of the court like the tough princesses, and naturally they will not bring disaster to the in-laws.

Moreover, the rank of the princess is placed there, and it will not set up another princess mansion like a princess, nor will it ask the princess how to do it like a consort. The daughter-in-law is so filial to her parents-in-law, there will never be a farce where the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law openly compete like the Fang family.

To sum up, no matter in terms of officialdom or family in-laws, the Duoxiang Cui family, a small branch from the Litang family, completely surpassed the main family.This is a situation that the descendants don't want to see, and it's something they can't bear-how can I say that it is reasonable to admit that it is reasonable for them to divide the clan?

It is by no means a normal phenomenon for the branch to be prominent and the main family to decline. For the Cui family, it will also be a matter that will greatly affect the unity and cohesion of the family.

Therefore, in order to prove the authority of the direct clan, the Trident Cui family will do everything possible to find trouble for the Duoxiang Cui family.

Of course, it would be even better if the power here could be brought back to the family.

Xiao Nan naturally didn't know that there was a wishful thinking over there, but she only wanted to know one thing, whether her room was being calculated by someone.

"Old lady, that's how things are, that day lily..."

Sending Wang Youan away, Xiao Nan went to the Rongshou Hall, first told about the Sanji Cui family's plan to test Cui Liu and his wife, and then asked worriedly: "Isn't Qiao Mu holding on to that matter?" , but I feel that our family is generous to the servants, and I trust Dayliflower even more, she has no reason to betray me just for a Jin. I think..."

At first, Xiao Nan thought that Hemerocallis belonged to the Xiaoliu family, but after investigation, it was discovered that Aye of Hemerocallis had a master behind him.

The old lady sat casually in the main hall, with her body tilted on the hidden pouch, twisting a string of Buddhist beads in her right hand. After listening to Xiao Nan's words, her hand paused, and she said: "Well, there is indeed a problem. I didn't want to Said, but since you asked, let me tell you the truth.

You still remember, last year, Feng Laojiu and his family were sent to Jingzhao Mansion, but they were released again a few days later.At that time, I sent someone to ask, but the Jingzhao Mansion said that the family registration of their family showed that they were all old members of the Sanji Cui family, and our family was not their original owner. "

Xiao Nan's eyes widened in surprise, "Impossible, our family's domestic slaves are all created by the old lady, how could this happen?"

When the three brothers and sisters of the Cui family separated from the main family, they basically did not bring a few servants with them. The subsequent trilogy and slaves were all slowly recruited by the three brothers and sisters, and they were not the family slaves of the Cui family at all.

Moreover, Xiao Nan deeply thought that Cui Sanniang was absolutely unwilling to have any relationship with the main family after going through the division of the clan. Even if she employed someone, she would definitely choose someone she could trust. !
"Hmph!" The old lady sneered, and said, "There's nothing impossible about it. There's a kid over there who once worked in the household department. It's not easy to change his household registration. Besides, he's not a big shot." Household registration, even if it is discovered, what can we do with him?"

Even the household registration of a prisoner's family can be changed to a daughter of a good family, so what else is there not to dare to do?
The old lady's resentment towards her family, even after six or seventy years, is still engraved in her heart, and she will not be in a good mood when she mentions that.

"So, the Hemerocallis family is really from there."

Xiao Nan also understood what the old lady meant, and she murmured, "Then, our family... and Sister-in-law Liu, will it be..."

Wouldn't it be so ruthless over there, the sand was mixed with the owner.

Xiao Nan was a little uncertain.

Fortunately, she took advantage of the rebuilding of the Chenguang Courtyard to squeeze out all the Cui family's domestic slaves in advance. Even if they kept a few rough maidservants, they would never be able to enter the back hall, let alone pry into any secrets.

The old lady smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, the lady and I have already sorted out the house. Speaking of which, it's really thanks to you, hehe, it just hurt your reputation."

What she said was definitely not a polite one. Back then, the old lady and Mrs. Zheng took advantage of the princess and Xiao Nan to sort out the Cui family carefully. Although they couldn't guarantee that they had the details of everyone in the Cui family, but But I can say with certainty that the owner of the Cui family, the servants in charge and the personal servants who are in important positions have all been investigated thoroughly.

Those with questionable backgrounds, those with strange family backgrounds, and those who acted behind the scenes, the old lady quickly created the Cui family compound.

As for some masters who made small moves, the old lady also warned them one by one.

Thinking of this, the old lady said with a little apology: "Your sixth sister-in-law did do some wrong things. Although I didn't expose them, I wrote them all down, and one day they will be completely liquidated. Now, the second child's family After all, I'm not in Beijing, so I can't directly punish the person in the second room. In addition, what Xiaoliu did was small and didn't cause any serious consequences. Even if the punishment is too heavy, it's not easy."

Xiao Nan sneered in his heart, yes, Xiaoliu’s did not kill him, no matter if it was wonton with pepper, or stuffed with shepherd’s purse, it would not directly cause abortion, it would take long-term consumption to have obvious effect .

There is also the silver incense ball found on the bullock cart. The musk and other substances added to the incense ball are not heavy.

But...that's not the point.

The point is that the other party hurt her heart, and she also took action. It cannot be said that the other party is not guilty if she and her child have not been harmed.

Thinking of his cute and well-behaved daughter being calculated by others all the time, Xiao Nan couldn't suppress that anger, and naturally there were some traces on his face.

Who is the old lady, she is already in her 80s, if she can't even see Xiao Nan's emotions, she will have lived for so many years in vain.

Continuing to twist the beads, the old lady sighed: "I know, I can't calm your anger by saying this. I have never been married, nor have I ever had children, but I have raised two younger brothers since I was a child, and I can I understand how you feel. If someone is always thinking of murdering my younger brother, no matter who it is, even if it takes my life, I will not let him go. But Qiao Mu, the Cui family's right and wrong in the past two years is real. There are too many, one hair will affect the whole body, so it must not be messed up."

If she hadn't been worried about civil strife at home, the old lady would not have been strong all her life, but Lin Lao was threatened by a concubine who kicked her out of the house.You know, the old lady hates being threatened the most, otherwise she wouldn't have decided to split the clan back then.

But what about 'hate'?

The old lady didn't want to see the family she had created being torn apart in front of her eyes. Even if the family was separated, it would be done after she died.

Closing her eyes hard, the old lady forced back the fragility in her eyes, and said, "I didn't mean to make excuses when I said this, Qiao Mu, I swear in the name of my deceased Aye, I will give you justice in the future, If you break this oath, I, Cui Sanniang—"

Xiao Nan hurriedly straightened up and interrupted the old lady, "Old lady, please don't say that, I believe you, really, I believe you. There is a god looking up three feet, you must not swear such a poisonous oath. "Just kidding, for a time traveler, wouldn't it be as smooth to make her swear as to be open to Liang Bai? !

On the contrary, if there are gossip about her that Xiao Nan forced the old lady of the Cui family to swear poisonously, no matter why the old lady swears, her behavior of forcing the old lady is enough to be whipped by the world.

Having been burdened by notoriety in his previous life, Xiao Nan did not want to make such a mistake again in this life.
