But it was a pity that Jingwan's words were still very effective even in Falling Plum House.
Seeing the determination in Jingwan's eyes that left no room for negotiation, Hong Lian also knew that begging her was useless. She rolled and crawled to Luo Rongyan's feet, "Second Master, save this servant, ah. Miss wants to beat this servant to death. In any case, this servant is your person. Miss is completely not putting you in her eyes, Second Master, Second Master …"
She dared to drive a wedge between them even at the brink of death, and did it so brazenly. But did he care? Of course not.
Sun Yijia seemed to have just discovered Hong Lian's existence and seemed to have finally recognized her. Even if someone forced her husband to be a concubine, she would not be affected at all because she knew what the final result would be. But now, she was strangely angry. Her face was frosty. She was not only targeting Hong Lian, but also her mother. What kind of mentality did she have at that time to choose such a person for her? Even under normal circumstances, as long as it was for her daughter's good, she would never choose such a person, right? Sun Yijia took a breath and calmed down her emotions. That person, she should not think about it.
— — Compared to her Fifth Brother, she was already much luckier. Not only because she married the person she liked, the person she liked and the entire in-laws treated her very well, and would continue to be good. Because she was a married daughter, she could not see her and not face her. No one would say that she was unfilial, but her Fifth Brother could not!
Sun Yijia lowered her eyes again. The contracts of the two servant girls were given to Wan meimei and let Wan meimei handle it.
A girl dealing with her father's bedwarmer, if word got out, her reputation would be greatly affected. Moreover, there were outsiders present. But so what? For an unmarried girl, the most important thing was to have a good husband, a good husband's family. Wan meimei did not have this concern. Jin Qinwang, that person … would support Wan meimei to the end. Sun Yijia had this intuition.
Luo Rongyan was now very embarrassed. With his upbringing, he could not kick away the woman hugging his leg, "Wan Wan …"
Jingwan revealed a cold smile. "Why? Does Father feel sorry for her and want to protect her?"
Luo Rongyan looked at Jingwan in silence. His relationship with his daughter was getting worse and worse. That feeling was really … Even though he knew where the problem was, he still wanted to work hard to change it. He was now working hard at the Ministry of Revenue. He had not been to his concubine's room, but an accident like Red Lotus appeared out of nowhere. He originally thought that since she was a member of his daughter's courtyard and his wife was so soft-hearted, he wanted to wait for his daughter to come back and deal with it. His wife could be said to be "obedient" to his daughter. But now, it seemed that he should have dealt with it earlier. "Wan Wan, you're thinking too much. — — What are you waiting for? Take him away. "
Red Lotus was forcibly dragged away by the two old maids who did rough work.
Without this protective umbrella, Red Lotus seemed to be grasping at the last life-saving straw, which was almost at the level of a true saint, Madam Zhang. "Madam, Madam, save me. This servant will serve you like an ox or a horse …"
Madam Zhang's eyes flashed, but when her daughter looked over, Madam Zhang moved her lips and did not say a word. Her daughter was so angry because she wanted to protect her. If she stood on the opposite side of her, wouldn't she not know what was good for her? Moreover, she always felt that if she spoke now, her daughter would probably ignore her in the future. She knew that she was not a qualified mother and could not help her child, so she could only strive to not be a burden.
"You probably won't be able to find the person who will save you." Jingwan looked at Red Lotus, who was clinging to the door frame, and said coldly.
Jingwan was not interested in finding out what methods she had used to climb into the bed. It was nothing more than that. She did not suspect that her father had taken the initiative to do it. He would not lay his hands on the people around his children. He still had this bit of moral integrity.
Hong Lian's fear was mixed with overwhelming hatred. She cursed out loud, saying things like hypocrites, viciousness, thieves, prostitutes, and so on. Then, she was gagged and beaten viciously in the courtyard outside.
Jingwan watched the whole process and saw Red Lotus's vicious eyes. She also saw the pain in Red Lotus's face during the beating. Although her mouth was gagged, anyone could feel that Red Lotus only had one breath left in her. Whether she could survive was not within Jingwan's range of concern.
After dealing with Red Lotus, Jingwan's gaze fell on her aunt and the others. They seemed to be frightened.
"In the summer palace in Chengde, a girl from Marquis Changping's estate wanted to be Third Brother's concubine. I was not willing. That girl lost half her life and probably will not be able to get married for the rest of her life. Her father, Marquis Changping, also gave his title to someone else." Jingwan said calmly. Although what she said was the truth, the meaning completely changed. She became the main culprit. If you are willing to lower yourself to become a concubine, then don't blame others for looking down on you. Outsiders aside, I don't care about people from other branches of the family. Let's talk about the second branch of the Luo family. Who dares to send a girl here to be a concubine? Let's sever the relationship first, then sign the slave contract. The first day that person enters, the next day, I will return him a corpse. "
"You child, you child …" Madam Gu pointed at Jingwan with trembling fingers. But in the face of Jingwan's indifference, she knew that her previous methods would not work. So, she pointed the finger at Madam Gu. As she spoke, she wiped away her tears. "Younger sister, how can you teach such a good girl to be like this? A girl's three obediences and four virtues …"
"Aunt, don't say such things. I was raised by grandmother. She is very satisfied with me. Are you questioning my grandmother? This is the Luo family. The head of the family is the minister of the Ministry of Official Personnel Affairs. Grandmother is not in charge of the family affairs, but no one dares to disobey her. You are just a relative of the Luo family. She is unhappy and drives you out. Is it you or her who is ashamed? "
Madam Gu's face turned pale. She did not dare to continue scolding her on this point.
"Also, don't cry. No one here can be appeased by tears and weakness. My father is not either. You don't know how ugly you are like this …"
"You, you, you …" Madam Gu became more and more agitated as if she had been touched.
"You resent my mother for robbing you of your marriage. It has been almost 20 years, but you still can't forget my father. Tell me, what will happen to you if uncle knows?" Jingwan smiled, but her eyes were cold. She continued to scold her.
The people in the room were very surprised. They looked at Madam Gu in disbelief. However, Luo Rongyan's expression was a little subtle.
"You are a girl. How can you make up such a story? You are really …" Madam Gu said harshly. Her face became more and more pale. She seemed to have forgotten to continue crying.
"I am sorry. When you came to Qi 'an Mansion and stopped my father to talk about your feelings, I happened to hear it clearly and saw it clearly. Do you want to know what I saw?"
"Shut up, shut up …"
"Because of this, even if I have only seen you once, I have a deep impression of you. Fortunately, my father is a gentleman. Otherwise … "Jingwan's expression became indifferent, but it was more uncomfortable than direct ridicule.
Everyone looked at Madam Gu as if they were looking at a dirty thing. It made her want to tear Jingwan apart. "Sharp-tongued, disrespectful to elders, mean and insidious …"
"Well, when we are out of the Luo Family, you can spread whatever you want. If I frown, I will not be surnamed Luo. Aunt, I will give you one last advice. Don't covet what you shouldn't covet. Know your place. The Luo Family will lend you a courtyard to live in. Otherwise, get out of here as soon as possible. " Jing Wan crudely and crudely peeled off the skin on her face and left her some leeway. As a result, some people were like cockroaches, jumping around and disgusting. When faced with such a weirdo, it was best to make her not dare to do anything.
Madam Gu looked like she was about to faint. Her eyes flickered as she glanced at Luo Rongyan. It seemed that she still hoped that he would speak up for her and teach this … bastard who humiliated her a lesson!
Unfortunately, Luo Rongyan's attention was on Jingwan at this moment. In fact, he was not the least bit proud of being remembered by his aunt. Instead, he felt disgusted. If he could avoid it, he would avoid it as much as possible. However, there was someone who was not sensible and went to the Falling Plum House all day long. She was picky. She said this kind of food was not delicious, but he saw her eat it all. She said this kind of food was not good, but her eyes were engraved with greed. She could not wait to take everything for herself. What's more, she said that her sister did not do well and did not do anything right. If it were her, she would do so and so. She almost regarded herself as the hostess of the Falling Plum House. The most disgusting thing was that she pretended to be shy and weak in front of him and cried at the slightest thing. And the daughter she taught …
Madam Gu looked at her sister blankly. She was probably shocked and could not come back to her senses for a long time.
"Mother …"
"Ah? Wan Wan, are you talking to me? " Madam Gu came back to her senses and immediately put her sister and whatever aside. She felt that her daughter was in a bad mood today and had a bad temper, so she was a little cautious.
"In the future, if you meet people like Red Lotus again, directly kill them." Jingwan was unprecedentedly cold at this moment.
"How, how can that be? That's a human life …"
"That's the person who stole your husband." Jingwan interrupted her expressionlessly.
"But, but," Madam Gu fiddled with the handkerchief in her hand and lowered her head. Her eyes were slightly red, "Shouldn't a woman regard her husband as her sky and be virtuous and virtuous?"
"According to what you said, there should be a sentence of 'to help the husband and teach the children'. Since you only do half of it and only think about him and throw the children aside, why can't you be more ruthless and thorough? "
Madam Gu was very helpless in the face of Jingwan's question. Things were completely out of her control. She was a little absent-minded and seemed to be muttering to herself, "Your father cares about me. Other people, other people are just …"
"Because I have you in my heart, I don't care about him having other people? Mother, do you know that I care about you the most and that I only have you in my heart and that other people are just playthings? That's the most disgusting thing. It's not even as good as a husband and wife who appear to be united but are actually divided. In fact, sometimes I really wonder if you really love Father with all your heart. If you really love him, then that lowly servant climbed into his bed and you can actually stay by his side like nothing happened. Don't you feel uncomfortable? He is surrounded by beautiful concubines and you can be virtuous and magnanimous to take care of them? If you don't care, then you won't be jealous and be virtuous. " Sometimes, Jingwan really felt that her mother was a weirdo among weirdos. She really wanted to pry open her head and see what she was thinking. Sometimes, it really made people's worldview shatter.
Madam Gu looked at Jingwan in a daze. She didn't know why her daughter was so angry today, "Wan Wan, it's wrong for you to think like that. It's wrong, especially when your future husband is a Qinwang …"
"Enough, don't use your methods to lecture me. You haven't taught me anything since I was young, so please continue to maintain it now. Since you are willing to be like this, why should I meddle in other people's business, "Jingwan sneered," If you feel that I'm wrong, then you firmly believe that you are right. Then, continue to be … "Bitch. In the end, she didn't say the last word. In the past, she felt that her mother's personality was weak and that she was a saint. She also thought that her mother's attitude towards the concubines was just that she had been brainwashed by the current dogma. These were all left to her. She wasn't a real child and didn't need her mother's care. But her mother's attitude towards Hong Lian made Jingwan unable to control her emotions and directly exploded.
Jingwan glanced at the other three people. What was the big deal about a servant who climbed into the bed? Another one was a married woman who was coveting her husband, and she was even his sister. The other party even had the idea of giving her daughter to her son as a concubine. She clearly wanted to climb up the social ladder, yet she still belittled her son. She even said that it was for her own good. How could she face such a person calmly and not beat her up immediately? Her mother was indeed a deity that she couldn't understand.
She could even hesitate to beat someone who might not appear again in the future. Then, she probably wouldn't do something like kicking her biological sister out of the house. "Aunt, I hate this kind of person the most when you act pitiful and aggrieved. If you want to stay in the Luo family, stop acting like a ghost, or never appear in front of me. Other things aside, if I want to kick you out, it's just a matter of a word. "
Jingwan didn't want to stay here any longer.
She took one last look at Madam Zhang and then looked away, "If you want to live like this, that's your own business. Don't harm my brother and sister-in-law. If you are soft-hearted and agree to be a concubine, don't blame me for falling out with you and not recognizing you as my mother. — — Sister-in-law, I have something to discuss with grandmother. Will you come with me? "
Sun Yijia looked at Jingwan with some worry, but didn't say anything. She stood up, "Okay. — — Mother, daughter-in-law will take her leave now. "She turned around and bowed to Luo Rongyan.
It was the first time that Jingwan did such a rude thing. She directly walked around her father and left.
Luo Jingbo didn't know about the matter of concubines, but he could roughly guess. Wasn't this a trap? He had to leave this place quickly. He attentively supported Sun Yijia, "Son will also take his leave."
The husband and wife hurriedly followed out.
Luo Rongyan stood there in a daze. His daughter had expected better from his wife, but she seemed to have completely ignored him. He always knew that his daughter didn't like concubines. He used to think that it was because of her mother, but later he knew that was only part of the reason. She hated these things from the bottom of her heart. He used to think that the relationship between father and daughter was good. After all, other people couldn't affect their blood relationship. It turned out that was not the case. Now it had turned into disgust.
He always thought that his wife and concubines were harmonious, and he didn't have many children. Not to mention the younger ones, his eldest son and eldest daughter were extremely outstanding. He lived a carefree life, but he could get things that others couldn't even get. He was proud of himself and even showed off to some friends. But now it seemed that he was actually ridiculous, a failure, and incompetent. Perhaps … … he was the kind of person that his daughter despised the most.
Luo Rongyan came back to his senses and saw his wife crying silently. He knew that his daughter's ruthless words had hurt her. He knew that she loved him. There was no doubt about it. She didn't show much jealousy before, so he took it for granted. Thinking about his daughter's words, he suddenly felt that it was very abnormal.
"Aunt, please leave. In the future … … we are relatives. Don't do unnecessary things to wear away our feelings. In the Luo family, mother loves Wan Wan the most. If you really make her unhappy, mother will stand up for you without saying a word. How much do you think you are in my mother's eyes? Moreover, father respects mother. Mother has a great influence on father. Similarly, Wan Wan is father's favorite grandson. "
As long as one was not stupid, who would not understand the meaning of these words? It was calmly stating a fact, but also a warning and a threat. She and her husband had brought their child and a sister-in-law to the capital. Could it be that they had traveled thousands of miles just to come here and have fun? Of course not.
When the Zhang family and Luo Peishan formed a marriage alliance, Father Zhang and Luo Peishan were on equal footing. However, Father Zhang was only a fourth-rank official at the time of his death. His descendants were also mediocre. Luo Peishan was a first-rank official at the moment of his death. He was the head of the six ministries, the Minister of Personnel Affairs. He was extremely prominent. She should have a share of such wealth and honor. However, she should have been the one to discuss the marriage, but her sister took it away from her. How could he not be angry? "You … …" Her voice was choked with sobs, and her eyes were full of pain.
"Aunt, don't be so pretentious. I chose the marriage myself." Luo Rongyan said coldly, "Wan Wan hates you. I hate you too. You're so pretentious, and you're already so old … …"
Luo Rongyan was not a man who had tender feelings for the fairer sex. If she cried too much, he would feel unlucky.
If you were stabbed by an ordinary person, you would probably get hurt and bleed. However, if you were stabbed by someone you cared about or even adored, it would be a direct attack to your heart. It would be so painful that you would wish you were dead.
Sun Yijia held Jingwan's arm and walked quietly in front. Luo Jingbo followed behind. They knew that Jingwan was in a bad mood. Thinking about it, it was indeed quite infuriating.
When they were about to reach the main courtyard, Sun Yijia finally patted her hand and said, "Sister Wan, don't worry. Mother still has me. Moreover, I'm only a daughter-in-law. Although I have my concerns, some things are easier to handle."
Jingwan smiled. "Thank you, Sister-in-law." She was her mother after all. She had stayed in her mother's womb before and knew the pain she went through during childbirth. Speaking of which, they only had different values in life. There was no other conflict. Although her mother was not a qualified mother, she still loved her child. She should not force her own thoughts on others. She did not listen to her mother's words. Naturally, her mother did not need to accept her thoughts. Everyone had their own way of living.
Along the way, Jingwan had thought about it very clearly. If she could not bear it, the best way was to stay away. Out of sight, out of mind. In the future, it would probably be like this.
When Jingwan and the others arrived at the main courtyard, Madam Luo had also taken a nap and had just woken up. "Why are you here now?" Then, she realized that something was wrong with Jingwan. Others might not be able to tell, but she knew Jingwan too well. "What's the matter?"
Sun Yijia, on the other hand, did not hesitate to "complain".
Madam Luo had already completely ignored her daughter-in-law. "Why do you care about her? Just do what your daughter should do. As for the rest, whether it's pain or happiness, it's her own business. As the saying goes, people with different principles cannot make plans together. "
"Grandmother, I'm fine. This is the last time." Jingwan smiled and said, "By the way, Grandmother, I'm going to have my coming-of-age ceremony after the mid-autumn festival. There are many related matters that I'll have to trouble Grandmother with."
"You're going to have your coming-of-age ceremony after the mid-autumn festival?" Madam Luo looked at Jingwan. "I thought you would have to wait until next spring, but it doesn't matter if it's a little earlier. This is a big day. Grandmother will make it grand for you."
Jingwan felt as if she had been seen through by her grandmother, and her face turned slightly red. "Thank you, Grandmother."
"As long as Grandmother is alive, there's nothing else to think about other than you."
Jingwan's eyes were slightly red, but she smiled and said, "Grandmother, if Grandfather heard this, wouldn't he be jealous?"
"Let him be." Madam Luo waved her hand nonchalantly, as if in her eyes, that old man was really worthless.
The three of them spent time at Madam Luo's place until it was time for dinner.
The Gu family, who were staying as guests in the Luo family, also formally kowtowed to the two elders with the highest status.
Among the younger generation of the Gu family, besides Gu Lian 'er, there was also a girl and three boys. Jingwan was not interested in whether they were legitimate or not. It had nothing to do with her. As long as they didn't provoke her, they would naturally live in peace. She had made it so obvious that she believed that no one would be stupid enough to annoy her.
She just didn't know if this uncle already knew what she said. At that time, he had a younger sister by his side.
As a younger sister, if she knew that her sister-in-law was thinking about another man, she would definitely be very angry. At that time, this girl didn't have any reaction. She was such a shallow person. Therefore, if she didn't tell her biological brother, it was more likely that he would use this as leverage to blackmail her sister-in-law for more benefits. Of course, it didn't rule out the possibility that she would tell the truth. If this man wanted to use the Luo family, he would naturally endure it. After all, she was just thinking about him in her heart and didn't make him wear a green hat.
The two elders gave them greeting gifts respectively. However, Madam Luo was quite cold to Mrs. Gu and Mrs. Zhang. Mrs. Gu and Mrs. Zhang's expression was a little stiff. Now, they really didn't dare to go to Jingwan's side. If they were really kicked out, they wouldn't be able to establish a foothold in the capital. It hadn't been long since they came to the capital. It was so prosperous and extravagant. How could she bear to leave?
Dinner was in the main courtyard. The women's table was separated.
After dinner, they were not in a hurry to leave. They moved to the side hall and the servants prepared tea.
Madam Luo first asked about little Mrs. Wang and the child. When Mrs. Wang asked if she wanted to take the child over for her to see, Madam Luo said that she would go to see the child tomorrow. The child was still young. It would be easy to scare the child if she carried him here and there. Then she casually asked about other things in the family. Mrs. Wang had been in charge of the household for many years. Naturally, there wouldn't be any mistakes in these aspects.
But Mrs. Luo didn't ask much, so Mrs. Wang roughly told her everything.
All the things for the Mid-Autumn Festival were ready.
Madam Luo nodded and said, "Wan Wan's Adulthood Ceremony will be held after the Mid-Autumn Festival. My eldest daughter-in-law, please take care of it."
Mrs. Wang readily agreed and said that she would do it well. She said with a smile, "At that time, the guest of honor will definitely be Great Elder Princess."
