On the fifth day after the Chen family's third wife was kicked out of the capital, someone sent a letter saying that Chen Zhongsheng had died.
Mrs. Chen didn't tell Chen Huanzhang, but asked the housekeeper to bring one hundred taels of silver to take care of the funeral. As for the Shao family and Sanfang's children, they didn't plan to take care of them anymore, but they didn't expect Chen Zhonghe to come back at this time.
Mrs. Chen didn't ask why Chen Zhonghe came back alone, she just said: "Chen Zhongsheng died yesterday, I just asked the housekeeper to bring a hundred taels of silver to take care of his funeral."
Chen Zhonghe was so shocked that he stayed where he was for a long time, and then he came back to his senses and said, "What's going on?" If Chen Zhongsheng died in an accident, he would not be so shocked. But now that there is no money for the funeral, it is not easy.
Mrs. Chen said indifferently: "Chen Zhongsheng spread rumors with Shao that Brother Yuan was a disaster star. After King You knew about it, he let them go bankrupt and drove them out of the capital. If I guessed correctly, he either starved to death or died of illness." gone."
The latter sentence deeply stimulated Chen Zhonghe: "Why don't you help them." In trouble, with Chen Zhongsheng's temperament, he would definitely come to ask for help.
Mrs. Chen found it funny, and said coldly: "Chen Zhonghe, I'm not out of my mind like you. He spread rumors that my grandson is a disaster. It's good that I didn't kill them. He also wanted me to help him. "
"There must be a misunderstanding here."
Mrs. Chen said expressionlessly: "If you have nothing to do, go out! In the future, if you have nothing to do, don't come here, so that we won't hate each other."
Chen Zhonghe's anger, which was originally full of anger, disappeared instantly when he heard these words: "Ning Niang, I'm not blaming you, I'm just, just too shocked."
Mrs. Chen has long been tired of Chen Zhonghe's temper: "It doesn't matter what you think, as long as you don't bother me. Just like before, you and I will not interfere with each other, so it will be fine." Externally, the husband and wife are friendly of. At home, each lives his own life.
Chen Zhonghe's throat seemed to be stuck, and he couldn't speak a word.
Mrs. Chen saw him standing still, and said: "If you go late, the housekeeper will probably bury him in a thin coffin. By the way, if you go late, maybe some of your nephews and nieces will starve to death." of."
After finishing speaking, Mrs. Chen said with a cold face: "I have nothing to say if you want to subsidize and help them, but if you dare to bring them into the mansion, I will immediately take Huanzhang to separate the property with you." Living means that the husband and wife do not live in harmony, maintaining their status as husband and wife but living separately.
Chen Zhonghe knew Mrs. Chen's temperament, and Mrs. Chen would really be upset if he dared to do this: "Don't worry, I won't take them back home.
"
Mrs. Chen said again: "When Chen Zhongxuan comes back, let the second room move out." Mrs. Chen and Mu Dan are good friends, but Chen Zhongxuan is full of thoughts. Leaving him in the mansion is an eyesore.
Chen Zhonghe shook his head and said, "Let them move out after observing the filial piety!" He let them move out during the filial piety, as if he couldn't tolerate the second wife.
Mrs. Chen looked at him coldly: "What? Leave him to plan the family property? Let me tell you, these properties in the family are all Huazhang, and no one can get involved. Otherwise, I will fight him desperately "The money left by father-in-law cannot be revealed to others. With these industries now, there will be excuses for spending large sums of money in the future.
Having said all this, Chen Zhonghe knew that it was impossible for the Shu family to have peace with Erfang: "When Zhongxuan comes back, I will tell him about it."
Madam Chen's expression softened a little.
Pearl waited for Chen Zhonghe to leave, and said: "Madam, if you say this, the master will definitely favor the second bedroom."
She feels that Mrs. Chen has become too strong now, and she will suffer in the long run.
Mrs. Chen shook her head and said, "If I'm not tough, he'll get along with him. In the end, it's Huanzhang and I who suffer." She has been husband and wife with Chen Zhonghe for so many years, how can she not know his temperament. You can't be too gentle with him, you have to be tough, or he won't listen at all.
Pearl secretly sighed in her heart and didn't say any more.
When Chen Zhonghe approached, Shao Shi was left with one breath. Seeing Chen Zhonghe, Shaw begged him to take good care of his four children before dying.
The Shao family gave birth to two sons and two daughters, and the others were concubines.
After finding a place to bury Chen Zhongsheng and the Shao family, Chen Zhonghe brought his nephew and niece back to Beijing. With Mrs. Chen's words, he didn't dare to take a few people home, but arranged them outside.
After knowing what Chen Zhonghe did, Chen Huanzhang felt very complicated. When seeing him, Chen Huanzhang said: "Father, do you think about elder sister's feelings in doing this?"
Chen Zhonghe said: "The fault lies with your third uncle and third aunt, and has nothing to do with Huanyu and the others."
Chen Huanzhang said disappointedly: "Don't tell me this, go tell the elder sister!"
In fact, Chen Zhonghe also felt a little unreasonable about this matter. After making arrangements for his nephew and niece, he went to Prince You's Mansion.
As a result, when he came to Prince You's Mansion this time, not to mention that Yun Xu and Han Jingjing didn't see him, even Chen Muqing didn't show up.
Death is like a lamp going out, she has nothing to say about Chen Zhonghe's funeral for Chen Zhongsheng and Shao's. But she was very angry when she brought the people from Sanfang back to the capital.
Chen Muqing said angrily: "In his heart, his nephew and niece are closer than me and Brother Yuan. If that's the case, why come here?"
Mai Mai said: "Grandma, Shi Zifei said before that you can't get angry if you are still breastfeeding, and you will return the milk when you get angry."
Upon hearing this, Chen Muqing hurried into the bedroom to see Brother Yuan. Looking at her son will make her feel better.
Chen Zhonghe waited for a quarter of an hour and saw that Chen Muqing didn't come out, so he could only go back sleepily.
Back home, Chen Zhonghe went to find Mrs. Chen. It's a pity that Mrs. Chen doesn't want to talk to him.
His wife and children ignored him, and Chen Zhonghe was also very sad. After he returned to his study, he couldn't help but ask his confidant Ah Chang: "Do you think I really did something wrong?"
"Master, if you can't bear to see Master Yu and the others suffer from cold and hunger, you can place them outside the city." After finishing speaking, Ah Chang couldn't help reminding: "Master, there is no overnight feud between father and daughter. When the eldest girl's anger subsides, This matter is over. But You Wang is not easy to talk about." You Wang made it clear that Sanfang was killed, otherwise Sanfang would not be driven out of the capital penniless. The master's move is clearly provoking Prince You.
That man, King You, is not a person who knows how to talk about relatives. Otherwise, he would not have stood by and watched when something happened to the Huang family. This time the master offended him, and he didn't know if he would retaliate.
When Chen Zhonghe heard the words, his tone was also a bit unfriendly: "Zhongsheng and Shao are already dead, what else does he want? Does he have to kill them all before giving up!"
Seeing this, Ah Chang dared not say any more.
Knowing that Chen Zhonghe had brought Chen Zhongsheng's children back to Beijing to settle down, Qiyou said to Chen Muqing, "Your father is really a good man." These words were full of sarcasm.
Chen Muqing hung his head, not daring to speak.
Qiyou said: "In the future, not only Brother Yuan, but you and Hong Po's children are not allowed to take back to the Chen family. If your mother and your younger brother want to miss Brother Yuan, let them visit the palace." Chen Zhongsheng and Shao Shi all slandered his grandson as the nemesis, but he didn't take it to heart. Since he didn't take his brother Yuan seriously, there was no need for brother Yuan to recognize his grandfather.
Yun Xu and Han Jingjing were also full of anger, so they didn't help to speak.
Chen Muqing's face turned pale in an instant. Qiyou is the head of the palace, his words are equivalent to the imperial decree. He sent a message that her child would not be able to go to Chen's house with her in the future.
Seeing this, Qiyou said: "If it wasn't for the fact that he is your father, how could he stay in the Chen family safely." Even if he didn't kill him, he would have to get out of the capital.
All these years, those who offended Qiyou did not end well. Of course, Qiyou would never provoke people. If not, Qi Hao would not let him come.
Han Jingjing couldn't bear it, and said: "Father, brother Yuan is probably hungry, let Mu Qing go back!"
When Chen Muqing walked to the door, he was shocked when he heard Qiyou say that a fool like this would be a disaster to the people even if he was an official. It seems that his father really provoked his grandfather this time.
Yun Xu also has a lot of opinions on Chen Zhonghe, but he doesn't agree with Qiyou's approach: "Father, the appointment and dismissal of officials is a matter for the Ministry of Officials. It would be a little bad for you to interfere in this matter."
Qiyou was so angry that his beard cocked up: "It's because you are too soft, that's why you were bullied. If it was changed to before, you see who dares to tell brother Yuan right and wrong, and see if I don't kill them." In fact, because he is getting older, Qiyou has restrained his temper a lot. In the past, people from the Zhao family and the Chen family would not be able to escape.
Yun Xu was so scolded that he didn't dare to say anything.
Han Jingjing said: "Father, what the old man of the Chen family has done is really infuriating, but if he can't recover, it will definitely affect Chen Huanzhang's future."
Qiyou chuckled lightly and said: "On the contrary, he has the shadow of Chen Shangshu if he is not killed by others, but he will not be able to enjoy the shadow of his ancestors in the future. If something happens to him in the future, what do you think? Do you care about Po Guan?" Guan, unwillingly. No matter, it affects the relationship between husband and wife. Therefore, it is better not to let him become an official again, so that there will be no future troubles.
Han Jingjing had nothing to say.
Qiyou said: "If Chen Huanzhang has real talents and learning, you can help me in the future." If you don't have talents, you'd better be a rich man at home.
Han Jingjing didn't speak anymore.
Qiyou sighed and said, "Yunxu, this family will be handed over to you from now on."
Yun Xu's heart skipped a beat, and he asked anxiously, "Father, where are you going?"
Seeing how anxious he was getting angry, Qiyou couldn't help laughing and said: "Where do you think I can go?"
Han Jingjing understood immediately, and asked, "Is father going to move to the Palace of Compassion?"
"Well, I don't worry about your grandparents getting old. From now on, I will live in the Palace of Compassion and Peace to accompany them." Anyway, his wife has passed away, so he doesn't need to worry about his children and grandchildren. Let go of these, and accompany the two elders with peace of mind.
Hearing that he was going to the Compassionate Peace Palace, Yun Xu felt relieved. He was afraid that Qiyou would still run outside to play at such an advanced age. Thinking this way is because Qiyou often said that he wants to travel around.
Qiyou said: "In the future, you husband and wife will discuss and deal with matters in the mansion, so you don't need to ask me any more." The great-grandson is already there, so it's time to let go.
Yun Xu didn't want Qiyou to work any longer: "Okay."
Chen Muqing went back to her yard after hearing their conversation outside.
