Rebirth of a famous family: Mala's first wife

Chapter 118 Unfeeling ([-])

Perhaps because of Xiao Jincheng's frequent appearances, Fu Junya always thinks of the days when she married into Xiao's family in her previous life.

What's ridiculous is that in the previous life, although she married into the Xiao family as she wished, and married Jin Cheng, the man she liked, the days when she and Jin Cheng got along day and night were numbered.

In those six years, the man she saw the most was not her husband Jin Cheng, but Jin Cheng's brother Jun Cheng.

At that time, she was still a newlywed young woman living in a honey pot.Jin Cheng took the path of martial arts, and went to the frontier shortly after marriage. After several battles, he has made outstanding military achievements and his military rank has risen higher and higher.And she and Jincheng were separated not long after they got married, so naturally they were lonely in the boudoir.Therefore, her biggest hobby every day is to climb up the tall building, lean on the railing and look into the distance, wondering where Jin Cheng is now?Is it cold?Are you tired?Often, she would just stand and watch obsessively for a long time...

Sometimes, she also reads books, writes, and plays the piano, but she doesn't care about housework and mundane affairs.The power of housekeeping is in the hands of her mother-in-law, Lu Shi, and she doesn't care about it.Even the maids around her joked that she was like the Guanghan Fairy in the Moon Palace, without the aura of human fireworks.

Uncle Juncheng is another big idler in the Xiao family.Because of a leg injury, he has extremely limited mobility and can only spend his days in a wheelchair.She often saw him sitting alone in front of the flower tree in the yard, holding a scroll in his hand, with distant eyes, indifferent expression, very lonely and melancholy.

His legs are covered with a thin towel all the year round, but when he is sitting in a wheelchair, his upper body is always straight, which makes people feel a sense of respect.Every time she saw this scene from a distance, she would feel an inexplicable feeling in her heart.

However, in order not to hurt his self-esteem, she always put away her emotions and smiled lightly and friendlyly.If he happened to see her too, he would nod his head very slightly as a greeting.Although his handsome face was always as cold as ice, she could feel that he was actually very kind.Otherwise, when she was deliberately framed and imprisoned, he wouldn't have worked so hard to save her.Therefore, she will always owe him a debt!
It's a pity that such a good person married an unsatisfactory wife.The eldest sister-in-law, Feng Shi, not only failed to give him gentle comfort, but instead quarreled with him every now and then.She often saw Feng's eyes red, complaining in front of her mother-in-law.According to Feng, after every quarrel, Jun would lock himself in his study and ignore anyone.

And at that time, she was not yet a person who was good at comforting others. Whenever the atmosphere at home was deadlocked, she could only send love poems, or take out her dowry Guqin and play it silently.The sound of the piano is like running water, flowing from her fingers, and as she plays, the mood that has become disturbed by family trivial matters will gradually calm down...

This was an unintentional move, and I don't know how many times it happened in those years.Only that time, when she was playing the piano silently upstairs again, she inadvertently caught a glimpse of the window lattice of a room downstairs, which was gently blown open by the wind.Through the suddenly opened window lattice, she clearly saw a thin, straight figure, and it turned out to be him, Jun Cheng!It was he who was looking at her and listening to her from afar, with focused, deep and painful eyes!
At that moment, she suddenly understood something, but she wished she had never seen or understood anything!She only remembered that she was flustered at the time, and she broke a string in a hurry, and the sound of the piano stopped abruptly. , ran downstairs as if fleeing.

Afterwards, in the extreme shock, she tossed and turned sleeplessly, digesting this scene alone, and dared not tell anyone.

But three or five days passed, and nothing happened.So she felt relieved and told herself that maybe she was wrong and thought too much.

But a few days later, she received a quaint Fengweiqin.The servant who delivered the qin told her that this qin was left unused in the mansion, and a suitable owner has not been found, and it has been dusty for a long time.The uncle just remembered this piano recently, thinking that she is the only one in the family who knows the rhythm, so he ordered someone to take it out and give it to her.

That is really a good piano!She appreciated it as soon as she saw it, but hesitated, should she accept it?She quietly inquired, and Juncheng did get a precious guqin when he was a businessman, but no one has ever played it, including himself.Since there was nothing wrong with it, she hesitated to accept it.

But the piano had been in her room for many days, but she never played it.Finally, one day, she sat down and played "Mountain and Flowing Water", which she was best at.In fact, she wasn't sure if Juncheng had heard it or understood the meaning of her piano sound, but after that, she ordered someone to put it away, and never touched it again...

Moreover, even the guqin that she married as a dowry was repaired, and she never touched it again...

Because of this little-known incident, her life in Xiao's house suddenly became less comfortable.She no longer climbed high and looked far away, nor went to the yard to enjoy flowers, but sat in the room all day long, writing and drawing, repeatedly counting the days when Jincheng would return.She didn't dare to admit that she was actually afraid of seeing him, that Jun Cheng with melancholy and deep eyes...

After that, she rarely saw Jun Cheng.And every time we met each other, I always felt that he was a little thinner than before, and his cold face became more and more indifferent.

Moreover, she didn't know if it was because of a guilty conscience or something, but she also didn't know how to get along with her sister-in-law Feng who she saw every day.Feng Shi was originally a narrow-minded person, felt her alienation and avoidance, and was naturally angry in his heart.

Every time Feng was dressed up in fancy clothes, raised her handkerchief, and said something eccentrically in front of her: "Oh, my uncle has become a forward officer. Well, in fact, in a woman's life, besides eating well and dressing well, she still needs to have a man sweetly by her side! Just like our uncle, if it weren't for his inflexible legs and feet, he might be the same as before, all the year round He is doing business outside! With his ability, the gold, silver and jewels may have already piled up into a mountain, but if that happens, wouldn’t I be as pitiful as my younger brother and sister?”

With a soft and kind personality, she just smiled awkwardly when she heard such harsh words, and she didn't even bother to say a rebuttal, because she didn't take it seriously in her heart.At that time, she always thought that her whole life would be very long. As long as Dasheng's army won a few more victories and drove the Beirong cavalry back to the desert in the north, Jincheng could come back, and the two of them could stay together for a hundred years. Love it.But who knew, everything after that was so short...

Looking back now, she had to admit that Feng's words were actually quite reasonable.The best glory in a woman's life is only a few years, why use it to taste the bitterness of being alone in an empty room!
Besides, no matter how annoying Feng's demeanor is, his evaluation of Jun Cheng is accurate.Juncheng, he has indeed inherited Xiao's father Xiao Deshen's vision and courage, and is an out-and-out business genius!At the peak of his career, he once said that as long as he was given a copper coin, he would be able to earn back an ingot!
Perhaps, it was because this talent was too obvious that he suddenly encountered that fatal accident, which resulted in the crippling of his legs.At that time, someone said that he was actually not in an accident, but was envied by others. Those people set up an ambush on his way to do business in an attempt to put him to death!If he hadn't been rescued by a team of escorts, he would definitely have lost his life! ...

Therefore, sometimes she couldn't help thinking, being proud like a brocade, what kind of torment should she feel when she bears such a blow?How can he endure his wife Feng's pretending to be free and easy?
However, these grievances and grievances are already a mirror image of the previous life.In the completion of this life, in the process of ambitiously expanding his business territory, the pace seems to be more steady.Second uncle Yin Zecheng, doesn't he praise him every time?As for Fu Junya herself, only after seeing the Xiao family's house in the capital with her own eyes, did she have greater confidence in his current financial resources and behavior style.If the wasteland of the Fu family had to be entrusted to someone, she would be willing to be him!

In contrast, her grandfather Yin's family also had a deep foundation in Jincheng, but she didn't feel that the Yin family could be trusted.

Sure enough, Yin was very puzzled and dissatisfied with this point. After hearing Fu Junya's proposition, Yin couldn't hide her surprise, "My son, the Xiao family is well-developed now, but they are people with foreign surnames after all. , In the past few years, we have had little contact with our family. Who knows whether the famous and well-known Mr. Xiao Juncheng is as good as everyone says? Will he show his face to us? Well, if you really If you don’t want your third uncle to be in charge, I’ll talk to your father and discuss it with your second uncle to see if he’s willing to take over.”

Now that her mother has shown her attitude, Fu Junya can't force it anymore. If she persists, her mother may feel strange and wonder why she is so familiar with the Xiao family's affairs because she stays at home all day.

After thinking about it in her heart, she smiled and said, "My mother also makes sense. Management of wasteland is a major event in Jincheng. Since it is inconvenient for our family to be the champion, we might as well be an advocate and let more Jincheng The gentry from the city participated and participated in the grand event together. Whether it is the Xiao family or the Yin family, everyone can have a share!" As the saying goes, you can only gain if you give up. Since you can't make profits, let's name it!However, only by pulling more people into the water can the momentum be made bigger!

Yin's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he praised: "Okay, that's a good idea! Your father will definitely approve of it!" Not only does he not need to take risks, but he also gains a good reputation for nothing. Such a good deal is the master's favorite.Especially after he came to the capital, he repeatedly sighed that in the officialdom, sometimes a good reputation is more useful than a lot of gold and silver...

However, in this case, it is necessary to send a reliable person back to Jincheng.Who should I send?
