Lord Quan teases Houmen's poisonous wife

Chapter 50
The Su family is a scholarly family, full of nobles, there was a grand tutor and two court elders in the ancestors, and the old man Su who has already retired is the third elder. Su Yan is a rare non-grandfather in Nanliang And the minister who was promoted to Duke is the first official of the Su family in the past century.

For the Su family, this is a great honor.

In the words of the common people, the Su family is definitely smoked from the ancestral grave, otherwise, how could a bastard who has not been eye-catching since he was young, without the blessing of his ancestors, become a high-ranking and powerful prince?
Such a century-old family is naturally well-off, and the Su family's mansion is even more spectacular, covering an area of ​​nearly 200 mu. Apart from the garden landscape, verandas and flowers and trees, there are more than [-] houses alone.

Except for Su Yan who was granted the official residence alone by Duke Feng, all his older brothers lived in the Su residence, and the four generations lived under the same roof without separation.

Mrs. Su is over sixty years old, and has been mentally weak in recent years, even a little deaf, and has to be taken care of by someone in daily life.

The old lady Feng set up a secluded yard and sent the old man in to rest. On weekdays when there is nothing to do, the old man would come out to bask in the sun, play with birds and fish.

The old man's old age was quite pleasant.

In the year when Su Yan granted the official residence to the duke, he went to the old lady and knelt down and begged to take Mrs. Jingyao out with her.

In the end, it was the old lady who made the decision, so it was not allowed.

Su Yan's aunt was from the Feng family of the former Prime Minister of the Left.

Back then, when the top three rankings were released, the old man Su Zhengcheng was arrested by the Feng family for his outstanding performance at the second place in the top three rankings.

The smooth sailing of the old man's official career is inseparable from his powerful left minister father-in-law.

The Feng family has always been strong. In the first few years of her marriage, she did manage the back house of the Su family in an orderly manner. After all, she is an important minister of the imperial court. Apart from means, she is also quite shrewd. But within a few years, her shrewdness was used on He fought openly and secretly with Mrs. Su's concubine room.

Mr. Su's six concubines were more or less suppressed by the old lady Feng Shiming.

The nepotism of his wife brought Su Zhengcheng not only a bright career, but also breathless coercion.

The father-in-law's family is powerful, and Su Zhengcheng often has to keep his eyes open and close his eyes. Even if the first concubine, Mrs. Zhao, gave birth on the night of Feng's intentional procrastination, Mrs. Wen didn't arrive in time, and the child was smothered to death in her stomach. Su Zhengcheng also had to put all the crimes on Mrs. Wen and the maids, beating them, selling them, even though he couldn't fully vent the pent-up anger in his heart, he still had to show it off.

After Feng Zuoxiang became an official, although some of his heirs entered the court as officials, they did not work hard to achieve his achievements. The highest official rank was the second son, Feng's second brother, who was the third-rank minister of the Ministry of Rites.

After the Feng family went downhill, Su Zhengcheng really turned around. He was blessed with children and grandchildren. He had nine brothers from his wives and concubines, except for the second son who was suffocated to death in his stomach, the sixth son who died at the age of three, and the fifth son who died at the age of three. Ba'er, who died of illness at the age of [-], and Da'er, who was accidentally hit by a stray arrow with Shengjia Qiuhun three years ago, died of illness. The other five are all in good health.

Now, only Su Yan, the old nine, has not yet married.

The carriage drove all the way to the west corner of Su's house and stopped.

Most of the aristocratic families in Shuntian Mansion have a rule of "enter from the west gate and exit from the east gate". It is not easy to open unless the ancestors are worshiped on New Year's Day or when noble people come.

Su Li stretched out her hand to lift the curtain down, and when the porter saw her, she was delighted to report to the inside layer by layer.

"Fifth Young Master is back."

"Hurry up and report that Fifth Young Master is back."

"..."

Starting from the corner door, the veranda and the hallway, the maids and servants relayed the news in.

Su Li is the grandson of Feng's direct relative, and because his mother is the Princess Linglong, the old lady Feng's baby is naturally tight, and the fourth wife is not allowed to beat or scold on weekdays, and because of this, he was urged to raise him in the early years. He has become a dandy and romantic.

One year, for the old lady's birthday, she invited an opera troupe to her house to sing. Su Li got drunk, and seeing that actress Jin was so beautiful, she couldn't hold back for a while, so the two had an affair.

Not long after that, Zijin came to the door with Su Li's child in her arms.

Su Li is the grandson of the current emperor and the great-grandson of the empress dowager, and he had a child before he got married. This incident will definitely ruin his reputation for the rest of his life, and it will also damage the face of the royal family.

The old lady was furious, and insisted that Zijin was greedy for vanity, and wanted to use wild seeds to climb the tall branch of the Su family.

At that time, Su Li was locked up, and the old lady didn't allow him to come out to see that woman.

After all, the Su family is the first family, and every move within the family is monitored at all times, and the old lady also knows that Zijin cannot be disposed of at will, otherwise, if someone makes a mistake, Su Li will not be the only one who will be destroyed.

After deliberating for a long time, the old lady gave Zijin a sum of money and asked her to take the child and leave Shuntian Mansion as far as possible.

For the sake of the child, Zijin accepted the money in tears and left that night.

It was only after Su Li was released that she realized that Zijin was pregnant with his child. She was very depressed. She invited a few friends to go to the horse race, but she saw Zijin's body in the woods in the suburbs of Beijing.

He once thought that this incident was planned by the old lady and his mother. Since then, there has been a estrangement from them, and his temperament has become violent and vicious.

Slightly closing her eyes, Su Li took a light breath.

He owed Zijin, mother and son two lives, and this matter has always been a thorn in his heart. He never expected to meet a woman who looks so similar to Zijin today.

Could it be that Zijin sent that woman to reconnect with him?
