Qiyou Episode (108)

Seeing Chen Zhongxuan signing the separation letter, Mrs. Chen was still in a daze. This time the separation was unexpectedly smooth.

Both of them signed the separation letter, and then as long as they go to the government to file a record, the matter will be settled. However, with so many witnesses, Chen Zhongxuan did not dare to repent.

The old lady of the shepherd's family and the left servant of the Ministry of War are very satisfied when they see that there is no twists and turns in the division. Of course, the little episode in the middle was ignored by them. Seeing that the Chen family had finished dividing their families, the two got up and went back.

Chen Zhonghe sent people out. The others, of course, also dispersed.

Back in the yard, Mr. Chen Er slapped Mrs. Chen Er on the face: "What did I tell you yesterday? Are you stupid today?" Such a large sum of money is gone, it hurts to think about it .

Mrs. Chen Er was a little dazed by the beating, but when she came back to her senses, she rushed forward and beat Chen Zhongxuan like crazy: "You want to go to the shop on East Street for yourself, so why let me go? You really think I'm stupid, I'll go make a fuss In the end, my reputation was ruined, so you have a reason to divorce me and help that vixen. Let me tell you, dreaming."

The more she said, the angrier Mrs. Chen became: "You are a murderer. I took the children here to serve my mother-in-law, and you were coquettish with that vixen in office. Now, you still want to plot against me, and your conscience will be given to me by a dog." have eaten."

Crazy women are scary. While cursing, Mrs. Chen tore and wanted Chen Zhongxuan, and she scratched at random with both hands.

Chen Zhongxuan yelled: "Pull this crazy woman away from me quickly." That day, he shouldn't have listened to his mother's words, and married this crazy woman who has no talent, no looks, and no strength from her mother's family.

The servants in the courtyard are all in the hands of Mrs. Chen. So a group of people stood still when they heard the cry.

When Mrs. Chen heard that the two were arguing, she said in a low voice, "Tell the Elder Master about this and let him go and have a look." She doesn't want to take care of the second bedroom.

When Chen Zhonghe arrived, the couple had already separated. But at this moment, Chen Zhongxuan was in a panic, and his face was scratched several times.

Chen Zhonghe asked inexplicably: "What's the matter?" Well, why did the husband and wife fight.

Chen Zhongxuan said, "I don't know why this crazy woman suddenly went crazy?"

When Mrs. Chen Er heard this, she exploded with anger: "He wanted the shop on East Street, but he didn't dare to say it out. He was afraid that speaking out would ruin his reputation and affect his official career. So, he wanted me to trouble."

Chen Zhonghe was shocked.

Chen Zhongxuan did not expect Mrs. Chen Er to mention this matter,

Spreading out in front of Chen Zhonghe, he was shocked and angry at the moment: "Why are you crazy today?"

Mrs. Chen Er almost rushed up to scratch him again, but was stopped by the maid: "You murderer, if I don't make trouble, hit me. You want the shop to say it yourself, why do you want me to make trouble. Ancestral industry, while wanting a good reputation, how can there be such a good thing in this world."

Chen Zhonghe stared at Chen Zhongxuan and asked, "Is it true what my brother and sister said? Do you really want the shop on East Street?"

Chen Zhongxuan naturally denied it.

The slap just now wiped away the last bit of affection Mrs. Chen had for him. Seeing his denial, Mrs. Chen sneered and said, "My lord, you don't know that he has earned at least five or six thousand taels of silver every year for his filial piety in office these years. But these years, I haven't seen a single penny." Here." If she hadn't gone this time, she would have thought that Mr. Chen Er was really upright and upright, and that he didn't make any profit in his tenure?

Mrs. Chen knew for a long time that Mr. Chen Er had a traitor in his heart, and told Chen Zhonghe that he would definitely hide the money he got, but Chen Zhonghe didn't believe it. For this reason, he had a big fight with Mrs. Chen.

Thinking of what Mrs. Chen said, Chen Zhonghe asked in a cold voice: "Since you have money, why haven't you sent back a penny all these years? You always write to me crying about your poverty."

Chen Zhongxuan looked uncomfortable, and said, "Brother, don't listen to this crazy woman. Brother, don't you know who I am?"

Chen Zhonghe said with a wry smile: "Who are you, I really don't know." If other people said these words, he would not believe them. But these words were said by Mrs. Chen Er, so he couldn't help but not believe them.

The third child is like this, and the second child is also like this. For a moment, Chen Zhonghe was a little disheartened.

"Big Brother, Big Brother..." But no matter what he called, Chen Zhonghe walked out without looking back.

Chen Zhongxuan turned his head to look at Mrs. Chen Er, his gaze could eat people: "You crazy woman, what good is it for you to make our brothers separate?"

Mrs. Chen Er sneered: "I'm making trouble? Could it be that I made up these things? I'm not as capable as you. I say one thing but I mean another thing." Fortunately, she listened to her daughter and didn't make trouble today. . Otherwise, Chen Zhongxuan's cold temper would definitely have divorced her if he ruined his reputation. At that time, it will really be so unresponsive every day.

Chen Zhongxuan was furious: "Do you believe that I beat you to death?"

Mrs. Chen Er said with a smile: "If you have the ability, you will kill me, just because you dare not." Anyway, this time she has seen through Chen Zhongxuan, and she has no scruples.

Chen Zhongxuan saw that Mrs. Chen's wife was broken, and didn't want to talk to this crazy woman anymore, so he walked away immediately.

Mrs. Chen was talking to her son when she saw Chen Zhonghe walking in in a daze. It was a little strange at the moment, but she didn't ask.

Chen Huanzhang hurried over to help Chen Zhonghe sit down, and said with concern: "Father, what's wrong with you?" From this appearance, it was obvious that he was stimulated.

Although Chen Zhonghe has many flaws in his temperament, he has always loved and relied heavily on Chen Huanzhang, the eldest son. So the relationship between father and son is very good.

Chen Zhonghe shook his head and said, "It's nothing." He suddenly felt that all these years of dedication seemed like a joke. But seeing his son at this time, his cold heart warmed up. At least, the son still treats him sincerely.

Chen Huanzhang was worried: "Dad, you must be tired. Dad, I will help you into the house to lie down for a while."

After hearing this, Chen Zhonghe couldn't help looking at Mrs. Chen. Seeing that she didn't object, he nodded and said: "Okay." After the two had a quarrel, he stayed in the main courtyard again. It's not that he didn't want to, but that Mrs. Chen didn't stay, and he couldn't save face. But after being hit by this, he realized that brothers are unreliable, and it is his wife and children who are reliable, and they will feel sorry for him. Unfortunately, he understood too late.

Mrs. Chen actually didn't want Chen Zhonghe to go to the bedroom to sleep, but it was her son who said this. The son is sensible early, and he must say this in the hope that their husband and wife will reconcile. But a broken mirror can no longer be restored to its original state. But for Chen Huanzhang's sake, she resisted and did not chase him away.

After a while, Chen Huanzhang came out: "Mother, is Dad asleep?"

Mrs. Chen hummed, but did not speak.

Chen Huanzhang said: "Mother, I know that father has done many things that hurt your heart before. But he is like this now, I really feel sorry for him. Mother, please give father another chance!"

Mrs. Chen said with a smile: "Don't meddle in the matter between me and your father."

Chen Huanzhang said sadly, "Okay." There was only so much he could do. For the rest, it's up to his father himself.

Pearl came over and said, "Ma'am, Second Madam is asking to see you. Ma'am, the left side of Second Madam's face is swollen, it looks as if she was beaten."

Mrs. Chen hummed and said, "Huanzhang, go into the room and see if your father is awake!" By saying this, she actually dismissed Chen Huanzhang.

When Chen Zhongxuan called Mrs. Chen's name when the family was separated, she knew what his plan was. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Chen Er didn't cooperate. Although I don't know the reason, it's always a good thing that the family separated smoothly without any jokes. Otherwise, people in the capital will have one more thing to talk about tomorrow.

Chen Huanzhang nodded, then turned and entered the bedroom.

When Mrs. Chen Er entered the room, the redness and swelling on her face were particularly conspicuous. As soon as she saw Mrs. Shu, Mrs. Chen called her sister-in-law and sat there crying.

Seeing her crying all the time, Mrs. Shu frowned and said, "Don't cry all the time, just say what you have to say. If I can do it, I will definitely help."

Mrs. Chen Er cried and said: "Sister-in-law, I feel wronged. He wants to have an inheritance in his heart and dare not say that he encourages me to make trouble. If I don't want him, he beats me. Look at my face, I can still go out to meet people!" Husband I can't rely on it, so I can only hold on to the big house.

Shu secretly said, it was as she expected: "The eldest son inherits the ancestral business, this is the rule passed down by the ancestors."

"I also told him that the eldest brother and sister-in-law treat us well, and we can't be so greedy, or we will hurt our relationship. Unfortunately, he can't listen to a word." After finishing speaking, Mrs. Chen said bitterly: "He is now I have that bitch in my eyes and my heart, and I can't say a hundred words to that bitch. He wants the shop on East Street for that bitch and two sons of bitches."

Chen Zhongxuan accepted a concubine, and everyone in the Chen family knew about it. However, Aunt Cheng did not return to Beijing in these years, and she came back with this funeral. But my aunt has no status, and she is not qualified to show up at a funeral. On the contrary, the two children who were concubines also stayed in the mourning hall.

Aunt Cheng is very beautiful, but looks very weak. Many men like such delicate women, but most women dislike them. Mrs. Chen only saw it twice, and she didn't like it. This woman has a weak face, but she looks scheming. However, Mrs. Chen Er is married to a bright matchmaker, and she is also a person who can let go. As long as Chen Zhongxuan still wanted to be an official, he would not dare to spoil his concubine and destroy his wife.

Shu sighed and said, "It doesn't matter how Cheng is. What matters right now is the child in the belly of Huansheng's personal maid."

Mrs. Chen was frightened, and it took a long time to come back to her senses: "Sister-in-law, what did you just say?"

Shu said: "Huansheng's personal maid, Biyu, is now three months pregnant. After I found out, I found an excuse to send her out. Except for the elder, no one else knew about it." Chen Zhonghe knew about it. , and asked Shu to dispose of the child in Biyu's stomach. How could the Shu family do such a stupid thing, she quietly sent Biyu away. I plan to tell Mrs. Chen after the funeral. It is up to Mrs. Chen to decide whether the child will go or stay.

Of course, there is no impenetrable wall in the world, but since Jasper was sent out and Shu's housekeeper is very powerful, those who knew about this did not dare to say anything.
