Chapter 1357 Exile (4)

On the twenty-eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, Liu Chu met Wu Kuo with Wu Jinyu and Fang's letter.

Liuchu is a child of the family, even if he is a member of the princess mansion now, when he saw Wu Kuo, he knelt down and kowtowed: "Master is well."

Uneasiness emerged in Wu Kuo's heart: "I came here all the way, but what happened to the son-in-law?" The future of the Wu family is all pinned on Jinyu and Changsheng. If something happened to Jin Yu, all his previous efforts would be in vain.

Hearing this, Liu Chu knew that Wu Kuo hadn't received the news that Wu Jinyu had been imprisoned: "Master, the son-in-law is fine, something happened to the uncle."

Wu Kuo hurriedly asked: "What's the matter, sir?" Naturally, the feelings of the first child are very different, and besides, he has worked hard to train Wu Jinbao.

Liu Chu thought it over and said: "It was found out that the uncle accepted bribes and neglected human life, and now he has been imprisoned. The son-in-law said that he may be executed in the next year."

Since Aunt Ji and Wu Jinbo disappeared, Wu Kuo's spirit has deteriorated a lot. In less than a year, Wu Kuo aged more than ten years. Hearing the news from Wu Jinbao again this time, he couldn't bear the blow any longer. He spat out a mouthful of blood, then fell straight down.

Liu Chu was startled and called the doctor quickly.

Wu Jinzhu got the news and ran over in a hurry, knowing that Wu Kuo vomited blood from Liu's anger, and shouted: "Come on, pull this Diao Nu out, it's a big deal."

Liu Chu's face was ashen, he still had his life at fifty boards. Liu Chu turned to the two servants who were approaching, and said coldly: "I came to find the master by the order of the son-in-law." Beating a dog depends on the owner, and these people dare not do anything to him unless they are out of their minds. .

"You vomited blood from my father's anger, because you have evil intentions. If you drag him down, I will reward you twenty taels of silver. If the master asks about it, I will take care of it." She couldn't help Wu Jinyu, could she not help a dog slave? .

The eyes of those two servants were shining, twenty taels of silver was enough for them to live a good year. People are making money and birds are dying for food. They no longer have any scruples to go up and try to control Liuchu.

Liu Chu was so angry that he was going to die, but this was Wu Jinzhu's territory, and he would definitely suffer if he insisted. He didn't show any face at the moment, and ran away. While running outside, he shouted loudly: "Old Chang, Lao Jia, help!" Liu Chu brought two guards with him this time, just in case. After all, Liuchu looks weak, so I can't rest assured when I go out alone.

Lao Chang and Lao Jia are veterans who have retired from the battlefield. Although the two are almost fifty, it is no problem to deal with a few servants.

Before the doctor came, Wu Kuo woke up. I turned around and didn't see Liu Chu, so I asked immediately.

Wu Jinzhu snorted coldly and said, "Father, this man made you vomit blood, why did you see him?"

Since the deaths of Aunt Ji and Wu Jinbo, Wu Jinzhu's temper has become particularly irritable. Sometimes, he even got angry with Wu Kuo. But Wu Kuo felt ashamed and couldn't bear to beat and scold her. But now the business is important, how can Wu Jinyu be manipulated: "Go and call Liu Chu." He needs to know the specific process.

Liu Chu didn't dare to come alone this time, if he hadn't run fast just now, he would have been beaten to death. To be on the safe side, this time I called Lao Chang and Lao Jia to follow.

"What's going on? Tell me clearly."

Liu Chu looked at Wu Jinzhu: "Master, please avoid this matter!" He returned to the capital when he got a reply, and he didn't want to stay here for a while.

After telling everything he knew, Liu Chu took out two letters from his body: "This is from the madam and the son-in-law asked the younger brother to bring it to the master. I asked the master to reply after reading it."

After receiving the letter, Wu Kuo read Fang's first. Because he knew that the Fang family would definitely not have good things to say. The result was as he expected. In the letter, Fang threatened Wu Kuo that if he did not agree to exchange the title for Wu Jinbao's life, then she would kill both Wu Jinzhu and Wu Jinshi.

Wu Kuo was so angry that he almost fainted again. The four sons rely most heavily on Wu Jinbao, and the one they love the most is Wu Jinbo. As a result, Wu Jinbo died, and now Wu Jinbao couldn't keep it.

And his wife treated him as if she were an enemy.

Wu Jinyu's letter is very peaceful, just begging Wu Kuo to agree to this matter, and also said that title and money are not important.

Wu Kuo's hands were shaking as he held the letter, he knew Fang wasn't trying to scare him. If he really didn't care about Wu Jinbao's life or death, Fang would really kill Wu Jinzhu and Wu Jinshi. There is a saying that goes well, there is only a thousand days to be a thief, but there is no reason to prevent a thousand days from a thief. This kind of thing cannot be prevented.

Although his heart was bleeding, Wu Kuo complied with Fang's and Jin Yu's wishes and wrote the scripture.

Liu Chu left Wu's mansion with the booklet and went to stay at the inn. She would rather stay in a deserted inn than stay in Wu's house. Who knows if that crazy woman will kill them in the middle of the night. The good days never passed for a few days, but he couldn't bear to die.

Hearing Wu Kuo said that he planned to return to the capital after the next year, how could Wu Jinzhu want to: "No, I won't go back to the capital. Dad, why should we go back to the capital when we are doing well here?" When she returned to the capital, she would not be rubbed by that crazy woman of the Fang family. The circle is flattened.

Wu Kuo said dejectedly: "The title is gone, so we can't stay here anymore." They just handed over the property under Wu Jinbao's name, and kept his private house. Although Jinyu is the son-in-law, but the sky is high and the emperor is far away, if someone cares about the money in his hand, the old, the weak, the weak and the small can't be worth the calculation, and it will be so bad every day. .

Wu Jinzhu panicked, and asked: "The title is gone? Dad, what's going on?" If the title is gone, she is just an ordinary rich daughter, and she has retired from marriage, how can she talk about it in the future? people.

Wu Kuo didn't want to say more: "Go and pack your things, we will go back to the capital after the Lantern Festival." He was not asking for Wu Jinzhu's opinion, but telling her.

Originally, Wu Kuo planned to wait for Wu Jinzhu in the capital to find a wealthy family, but now this idea has also come to nothing. I can only wait until I return to the capital, and then slowly make plans.

No matter how unwilling and daring Wu Jinzhu was to disobey Wu Kuo's wishes, Wu Jinzhu went back to clean up and salute.

After the new year, each family visits relatives. In previous years, Liu'er would go to the Imperial Palace on the first day of the junior high school and the Han family on the second day of the junior high school, and then go to the Princess Mansion. I have a big belly this year and haven't gone anywhere.

Pomegranate said cheerfully, "Second Princess, Eldest Princess has come to visit you."

Liu'er went out of the house to meet her, and when she got to the door, she saw Zao Zao with a big belly walking in briskly.

"Elder Sister, walk slowly, walk slowly." Zao Zao was not afraid, she was terrified when she saw it.

Zao Zao strode up to Liu'er, pushed her stomach against Liu'er's belly and said with a smile, "I always walk like this." I walk so fast on weekdays, even if I am pregnant, I can't just change it. got used to it.

"Elder Sister, you are pregnant with twins!" The pregnant women who were pregnant with twins in other people's families were very careful to avoid accidents. But her eldest sister is very fierce.

Zao Zao rubbed his stomach and said with a smile: "The two children are good, and nothing will happen." Apart from lethargy, there was no other discomfort.

Liu'er was so envious: "Eldest sister, you are still lucky." Huai Jiaojiao vomited in a mess before, but this time she vomited bile again. Being pregnant is such a shame.

After entering the house, Zao Zao unbuttoned the cloak with ancient patterns on her body, revealing the red embroidered peony dress she was wearing underneath.

Liu Er seemed to be in the new continent, she was very surprised: "Sister, you actually wear a skirt?" The last time I saw Zao Zao wearing a skirt was when she got married.

Zaozao said with a bitter face: "Mother told me to wear more red skirts, otherwise this girl will be like me in the future. She doesn't like red clothes and military uniforms." Although Zaozao feels that she is living like this now, she doesn't want The future daughter-in-law is like her. This road is too difficult to walk. She can get to this day because of countless blood and sweat.

Liu'er covered her mouth and smiled lightly: "Eldest sister, are you so sure that this belly is a girl? What if it's a kid?"

"One hundred percent twins." After finishing speaking, Zao Zao looked at Liu'er with a fierce look on her face: "You are not allowed to say unlucky words." Last time, Brother Rui told her that it was nothing to think about, but it turned out Really gave birth to a son.

"Well, it must be twins." Whether they are male or female has long been decided, and what they say can't be changed. But Liu'er knew that Zao Zao had always wanted a sweet and soft girl, so she followed her wishes.

Touching Liu'er's stomach, Zao Zao said with a smile: "You have a sharp belly, you must be a son."

Liu'er laughed and said, "If it's a son, I won't have one."

"Zaozao, have you discussed this matter with Zhixi? You can't decide this kind of thing unilaterally." She was going to stop having this baby, and three children were enough. Too much, she can't get it.

"No. He thinks that two children are too few and wants me to have three. He said it lightly, does it hurt to have a baby without being tired?" Liu'er felt that Feng Zhixi was inconsiderate and cared for her, so she quarreled with Feng Zhixi Get up and cry hard. In the end, Feng Zhixi bought a gift to accompany her carefully, and coaxed her to burst into laughter.

Zao Zao smiled and said: "Then you discuss it slowly, anyway, there is no rush." ​​After all, this is not a trivial matter, if Liu Er makes a unilateral decision, it will affect the relationship between husband and wife.

Zao Zao also learned from Yu Xi and Yun Qing that there is a need for discussion between husband and wife.

"Let's talk about it later!" It's too early to worry about this. Anyway, even if I want to give birth, it will take two years. Now I really have no physical strength and energy.

After talking about the child, Liu'er was concerned about Wu Jinbao again: "Elder sister, I heard about Wu Jinbao from Zhixi. Elder sister, brother-in-law must be very sad. You stay with him at home and let him relax."

Zaozao let Shiliu and the others go down, and then said: "Mother wants us to exchange the title of the Wu family for Wu Jinbao's life." The less people who know about this matter, the better. Otherwise, if the censor heard the news, I'm afraid there would be a storm. At that time, it is easy to have accidents.

Liu'er really didn't know about this matter: "Does father agree?" With her father's rigid temperament, she was very unwilling.

"When did father refute what mother decided? I don't know my father-in-law, he is reluctant to part with this title." She didn't have much contact with Wu Kuo and didn't know much about it, so she didn't dare to comment.

Liu'er smiled and said: "You are willing to part with your eldest brother-in-law, why is he reluctant?" Wu Jinbao had an accident, and his heirs are not eligible to inherit the title. In the future, this title must fall to the second room. Although it is said that the Viscount is not comparable to the Duke and Marquis, it is still a title after all.

"If you don't have the ability, you can just eat and wait to die if you have a title or not. If you have the ability, you can make a living with or without a title. Therefore, the most important thing is to cultivate children to become talents." Like the six siblings in their family, all I have become a talent.

Liu'er agrees with this statement.

On the day of Lantern Festival, Liu Chu rushed back to the capital. Seeing Wu Jinyu, Liu burst into tears.

Liujiao and Liuchu have been with Wu Jinyu since childhood, and they are very trusted by him. Seeing this, Wu Jinyu frowned and said, "What's the matter?"

"Master, I almost won't see you again." Before Wu Jinyu could ask, he told the story of Wu Jinzhu's attempt to beat her to death: "Master, Lord, I never offended her, I don't know Why does she want my life?" This big girl was so vicious that he would feel sorry for himself if he didn't complain.

Wu Jinyu is not stupid, how can he not know that Wu Jinyu hates him: "You took it for me." After finishing speaking, he rewarded him with fifty taels of silver, and also gave him half a month's vacation.

Going back and forth to Jiangnan is in a hurry and takes a lot of energy. Although Liuchu is young, he can't be overworked.

Zao Zao smiled and said, "Do you still want to take them to live in the Princess Mansion?"

Wu Jinyu was silent for a while and said: "Zao Zao, Wu Jinzhu don't want to stay? I'm afraid she will be bad for Changsheng and them in the future." Wu Jinzhu hated him so much, I was really afraid that he would transfer this hatred to Changsheng and them. Longevity is his lifeblood, and he feels distressed when bumping into it on a daily basis, so he does not allow such uncertain factors to exist.

Zao Zao was taken aback. In her impression, Wu Jinyu felt sorry for the weak. Unexpectedly, one day, he actually wanted to kill someone. However, Jinyu is also for children.

Zao Zao smiled and said: "You are also worried, you just need to marry her far away." Because their badness and evil are all on the surface. On the contrary, dogs like Wu Jinbo who don't bark should be careful.

Wu Jinyu nodded.

"Look at what father-in-law wrote in the book?" There was a reply, indicating that Wu Kuo agreed to exchange the title for Wu Jinbao's life. But just to be on the safe side, this brochure must be read before it can be submitted.

After reading the book, Zao Zao said: "I will present this book tomorrow." Today is the Lantern Festival, so I don't want to add such a book to embarrass my parents.

On the day Yunqing accepted the zhezi, he issued an imperial decree, exempting Wu Jinbao and Xiao Fang from the death penalty, and the couple were exiled to Lingnan for twenty years.

When Fang got the news, he said to Wu Jinyu: "Jinyu, you send someone there to deal with it, and don't let your elder brother suffer too much." This prisoner is going to serve in the place of exile. There are many types of service. The light ones are doing some book work in the yamen, and the heavy ones are coolies such as smashing rocks and picking soil.

"Mother, don't say that in the future, I don't have the ability." It's true that he is a son-in-law, but he only raises flowers and plants and takes care of the children at home, and the people in the court don't know anyone at all. And Zao Zao has long stated that she won't take care of this matter, so don't even think about asking her to help with it. And he didn't have the face to say that.
