Chapter 1439: Quick Knife Cutting Through the Mess (1)
The imperial court is on holiday on the 26th of the lunar month, and Fu Jingene is resting on the 29th of the lunar month.
Qingshu took out the new clothes he had made and let him try them on, looked at them and said, "The waist is a little wider, I have to change it." ”
This size was made a month ago, but during this time, Fu Jingene was so busy that he lost a few pounds without touching his feet.
Seeing that Qing Shu had prepared eight sets of clothes for him, Fu Jingene said: "It's too much, it's enough to make two sets, you and Fu'er can make a few more sets!" ”
Qingshu said angrily: "Two sets of clothes, you have to bring a change of clothes when you go to the yamen." What are you going to wear if both clothes get dirty? ”
"Don't you still have a lot of clothes at home, and those clothes are still new!"
Qing Shu glanced at him and said, "You mean I won't live anymore?" ”
Fu Jingene smiled and said, "I don't mean that. Isn't the emperor advocating frugality now?? I want to wear new clothes every day, isn't it contrary to the emperor's will? ”
Thinking of his previous experience in Taifeng County, Qingshu couldn't help but say: "It is a good thing for the emperor to advocate frugality, but I am afraid that the people below will distort the holy will and act misbehaps." ”
"Don't worry about that. The emperor has always wanted to rectify the rule of officials, but this matter has been slow because of his identity. We will increase our efforts from next year, and those people will take the opportunity to dare to do nonsense. ”
Qingshu nodded, and then said another thing to him: "Jingye has agreed to celebrate the New Year with us, and they will come over tomorrow morning." ”
This was expected by Fu Jingen.
Qingshu sighed a little: "I don't know how my grandmother is doing in her hometown now?" ”
"With Uncle Shen and his mother-in-law taking care of her, grandma must be very happy."
Old Mrs. Gu, who was worried about Qingshu, was looking at the crying Zeng family with a headache at this time: "Heping doesn't want to go back with you, it's useless for you to cry with me!"
After Gu Heping came back from Pingzhou, he lived in the rich family, and no matter how much the Zeng family begged him, he would not let go.
Zeng said with tears in his eyes: "Auntie, the head of the family listens to you the most." Auntie, please help me persuade me to be in charge, right? I knew I wasn't mad at him that day, but I knew I was wrong. And Fuchun and Fucai haven't gotten married yet, so he can't leave it alone! ”
Old Madam Gu said: "Don't worry about this, peace will not ignore the two children." Zeng, Heping just hasn't slowed down his strength now, and he will move back after a while. ”
Mother Hua glanced at Old Madam Gu with disapproval, and her words were completely muddy. If you want him to say that it is difficult for a clean official to decide family affairs, they should not care about this matter.
Zeng's wanted to take Gu Heping back now: "Auntie, I and Heping are husband and wife, and husband and wife should live together." Now like this, how can you say kiss in the future! ”
Gu Xian happened to hear this when she entered the house, and sneered at the moment: "When Heping's foot was injured and hurt to death, you threw him away at Fugui's house, why didn't you want Fucai to say goodbye in the future?" ”
Zeng wiped his tears and said: "Eldest sister, a husband and wife for a hundred days, I don't care but have a weak heart." I really didn't have any money at the time, otherwise I would have asked a doctor to treat him. ”
"Whether you really have no money or are reluctant to spend this money, you know it all too well."
Gu Xian said sharply: "You have tried your best to let Heping go back to live with you, not only because he can still earn money after his leg is better, but also because he has a few hundred taels of silver in his hand!"
The doctor's medical skills are good and he uses the best medicine, so Gu Heping's leg is cured. Of course, heavy work can't be done, but light work can still be done. The other 1,000 taels of medical expenses only cost more than 600 taels, and there were more than 400 taels of silver left. This money Mrs. Gu asked Gu Heping to keep to replenish her body, and did not return it to Mrs. County Ling.
Zeng's family was taking care of Gu Heping at that time, and he knew all about these things. At that time, she was still thinking about getting the four hundred taels of silver, half of which she would take out to buy land, and the rest could not only handle Fuchun's marriage decently, but also say a good family affair to Fucai. Of course, if there is any surplus, I will secretly help the eldest son and eldest daughter. It's just that what she didn't expect was that no matter how much she begged Gu Heping, she didn't want to go back to live. Not only that, but she didn't touch a cent of the money.
Zeng's face, who was pierced by his thoughts, remained unchanged, and he still cried and said: "Eldest sister, I have put him first in everything I have with the husband and wife who are in charge of the family for so many years, and I treat wealth and nobility like my own son. ”
Gu Xian was about to speak, but was stopped by Shen Shaozhou. He said with a straight face: "My mother-in-law doesn't have the energy to take care of your housework, and I hope you don't come to nag her in the future." ”
Old Madam Gu followed Shen Shaozhou's words and said, "Go back!" In the future, don't come. ”
At the beginning, he threw the injured peace to Fugui like a burden, but now that he has money in his hands and wants to take people back, how can there be such a cheap thing in this world. Even a generous person like Old Madam Gu couldn't get used to what the Zeng family did.
After the Zeng family was invited out, Gu Xian frowned and said, "Mother, don't see her again in the future." I'll also tell the concierge that I won't let her in in the future. ”
Shen Shaozhou also doesn't like Zeng's very much, this kind of wife who can't share the hardships will not be liked by anyone: "Mother, it is difficult for Qing officials to decide family affairs, and we should not interfere in their family affairs." ”
Old Madam Gu shook her head and said, "I know, I just feel sorry for peace. The two daughters-in-law who married all ran for his money, and they didn't really mean it to him at all. ”
Gu Xian said: "I said that she was hiding a traitor inside, and you always said that she was a good person, and it turns out that what I said is right!" ”
Old Madam Gu was a kind person, and when she heard this, she shook her head and said, "You can't say that, if she is really a vicious rich and pearl, she can't grow up in peace." ”
Shen Shaozhou said: "Mother is right, the Zeng family is not a vicious person, but his selfishness is too heavy. The most important thing in her heart is the children she has born, and she can give up peace for the sake of a few children. ”
If peace is not good for her, it is understandable that she will give it up, but in fact, peace has been very good to her and the two children in front of her all these years.
Old Madam Gu nodded and said, "You are very right. I just hope that peace will not be confused, and she will move back by her. ”
Shen Shaozhou said with a smile: "No, if you want to move back, you will have to move back a long time ago, Zeng Shi saw that he couldn't say that he could not move him, so he begged to come to the door." ”
If Gu Heping followed Zeng's back in this situation, it would be really stupid. Such people will still have fewer contacts in the future.
Old Madam Gu's heart was slightly relieved when she heard this, but she sighed again: "Seeing that the child is growing up and wants to enjoy happiness, this kind of thing happened. Ahem, why do you think his life is so bad? ”
Shen Shaozhou didn't see it that way, and said: "Fugui, that kid is pure and filial, and he will definitely be able to enjoy happiness after following Fugui." ”
Of course, the night when you want to live with the Zeng family must have been bleak.
