In the past, when the husband and wife talked about Li Qiufang, they had to quarrel, even if they didn't quarrel, Marquis Jing would definitely leave with their sleeves up.

However, this time the old marquis was unusual, and when he heard Mrs. Chang complain like this, he sighed and muttered: "Really, how happy and happy this family used to be? But since Qiu Fang came in, Ming's daughter-in-law and Lifu have become like this? ”

His attitude made Mrs. Chang stunned for a moment, and then wondered, "Huh? Why did you say such a thing? Didn't your good niece come over just now, saying that Fuguiyuan is making gold today, listening to that meaning, it is like being taught the art of gold by a god, which is much better than the painstaking management of the daughter-in-law of the day. The lord should be proud that you invited such a female god of wealth back, why did you sigh? ”

Marquis Jing stretched out his hand and rubbed his temples, and muttered: "Qiu Fang will indeed make money, but what kind of family are we, is it just on such a few silver coins?" Even if there is a mountain of gold and silver, what is the meaning of being deserted at home? ”

When Mrs. Chang heard this, she was silent for a while, and then sighed again: "It turns out that the master is still an understanding person. But your niece is also working hard, Chinese New Year's Eve is approaching, and this mansion is also full of red and festive. ”

Marquis Jing nodded and said, "You can be regarded as saying a fair word for Qiu Fang." It's a pity that no matter how hard you try, you can't hide the desertion in this mansion. Tell me to say, it's better to take the third girl back, you can also persuade her, don't let her be disillusioned because of this marriage, our family status is here, we won't let her get married because of this matter, or find someone to deal with her. Moreover, I also took this opportunity to let her pick up the housekeeper's affairs, no matter how good Qiu Fang is, in the end, it is an outsider, we have a huge Zhenning Hou Mansion, how can there be a reason for outsiders to control it? ”

"Amitabha, how can the master seem to have opened his mind today." Mrs. Chang clasped her palms together and recited the Buddha, and then sighed: "I asked Ming'er and said that the three girls are doing well in Shanhai Garden. At this time, Cai Wei really had to comfort her so cheerfully and set an example for her. Besides, even if you take her back, I don't think she was close to Li Qiufang in the past, and when the time comes, she will be a real housekeeper, don't say that your niece is not a fuel-efficient lamp, even if it is a fuel-efficient lamp, who can stand the power of the side? I don't know what the trouble will be like at that time. ”

Marquis Jing glanced at his wife and said sullenly: "Not everyone likes power, otherwise Ming's daughter-in-law is gone, and you should take care of this family, why did you become a shopkeeper?" ”

Mrs. Chang said angrily: "I'm out of sight and out of mind." Master, I'm going to ask you a word today, you pat your chest and think about it, since you and Zeming insisted on going your own way, how much happened in our house when you and Zeming took your niece in? In this situation, you don't have any regrets in your heart? ”

Marquis Jing sighed and said: "You always complain that I took Qiu Fang over that day to make up for the debt I owed to Ze Ming back then, yes, I don't deny that I have a little bit of this thought." But the most important thing is to look at her lonely, thinking that she was accepted into the door by He Jiaqiang because of He Zeming's affairs in the past, and suffered a lot, so she thought that it would be good to make a little compensation, do you really want to wait until she can't live and go to a dead end, and then regret and feel guilty? That's a lifetime of no way to compensate. Because of this, I took her in with Zeming, where could I expect Ming's daughter-in-law to be so decisive and ruthless? Madame, you said yourself, is the child too willful? Not to mention that Ze Ming hasn't accepted Qiufang as a concubine, even if he accepts her, who will be a wife in this capital, because of this, he will be reconciled with her husband......"

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Mrs. Chang, only to hear her say in a deep voice: "I said earlier that Cai Wei's child is very strong, don't look at her accepting Mei'er, can Mei'er and Li Qiufang's situation be the same?" That's it, it's useless to talk about this now, I'll ask the master, don't you regret it later? ”

Marquis Jing shook his head and said, "As Madam said, it's useless to say this now, what if I regret it?" Can there be regret medicine for sale in this world? ”

Mrs. Chang lost her voice when she said one sentence, and this sentence has been held in her heart, and now she finally asked it, and she got the answer she wanted, but as her husband said? What's the use? There is no regret medicine in the world.

Because of a long sigh, he tilted his body, leaned on the soft pillow, and muttered: "That's it, with the character of the master, I can actually say this sentence, it can be seen that I really regret it in my heart." ”

Marquis Jing coughed and said in a deep voice: "It's a prosperous Hou Mansion, now that the people are withered, there are only a few of us left, think about the grand occasion of the year, and then look at the ...... Alas! Actually, I also know that I can't blame Qiu Fang for this, but in the current situation, it is inevitable that I will have something to worry about......"

Before he finished speaking, he heard the voice of the girl outside: "The prince is here." ”

Then the door curtain was lifted, Jing Zeming walked in, and when he saw the husband and wife, he was stunned, and hurriedly saluted, and then said with a smile: "Daddy is discussing a big matter?" The son was unlucky. ”

"What's the mishap?" When Mrs. Chang saw her son, she had a smile on her face and beckoned him to come over and sit down by herself. The big girl behind her breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly served fragrant tea in person.

Jing Zeming took the teacup, his eyes had already looked at his parents' demeanor, and he was a little puzzled in his heart, he knew that his parents almost didn't talk much now because of Li Qiufang's matter, as a son, of course he also persuaded him, but with little effect, but he didn't know how the two got together for a long time today, and he looked at his father's face with a bit of frustration.

After taking a sip of tea, he put down the tea cup and said, "Seeing that Chinese New Year's Eve is approaching, what else are parents unhappy about?" Why don't you tell your son about it, and see if I can help you with it. ”

Mrs. Chang glanced at Hou Ye and said lightly: "Your father feels that this year's Chinese New Year is really lonely, so he feels uncomfortable, can you help him do this?" ”

Jing Zeming suddenly realized this, nodded and said, "It turns out that it's because of this." Even I can't help it. Father doesn't have to be sad, there was something about his second brother and sister a month ago, where can he be happy? always have to take care of the emotions of the second brother and Aunt Jia. ”

Mrs. Chang snorted coldly and didn't speak, but she didn't think so in her heart, and secretly said Aunt Jia's emotions? What emotions can she have? In addition to money, who did she have affection for? At the beginning, I said that the marriage of the third girl was not good, and persuaded her to think about it more, but she complained that I connived at Cai Wei, so that I delayed my daughter's marriage, but in fact, it didn't make Zhang Wanjia's money blind? Lian Xian's daughter-in-law, who gets close to her on weekdays, entrusts her child to me in the end, which shows that she also knows her as a human being in her heart.
