MTL - Feng Xing-Chapter 2

The old lady really didn't like Fang Fengsheng, not only because of her cold personality, but also because she was married to her favorite grandson, Sun Wencheng.

At the beginning, the old lady wanted to make a pile of her most beloved granddaughter and her most beloved grandson, but Fang Fengsheng was killed halfway, which completely ruined the good things she thought, so how could the old lady like her.

In fact, to be honest, Fang Fengsheng is not a half-way, she and Sun Wencheng have a long-standing engagement, but the engagement was too early and hasty.

Speaking of this, I have to talk about Sun Wencheng's father, that is, Sun Qinghua, the second grandfather of the Sun family.

Back then, Sun Qinghua went to Hangzhou to take part in the triennial provincial examination. On the way, he met Fang Yan, a scholar who was also taking the examination. The two are like-minded, and they are very reasonable. Coincidentally, both of them have married wives and have given birth to children. What's more, one gave birth to a boy and the other gave birth to a girl. During a drinking session, the two made a verbal marriage contract for their children and exchanged tokens.

In that township examination, Sun Qinghua won the list, but Fang Yan lost his name in Sun Shan and returned home sadly.

After that, Sun Qinghua went to the capital to participate in the Spring Festival in February of the following year, and was named on the gold list, feeling proud. In order to make a living, Fang Yan also inherited the family inheritance, so he gave up his career and started a tour.

Mingming went to the exam together, but the situation was one in the sky and the other in the underground, which really makes people have to sigh. Later, the two of them had contact, but because Fang Yan was a tourer and had no fixed place to live, the relationship gradually faded.

After more than ten years of separation, Sun Qinghua had long forgotten the marriage contract that he made at will. The Sun family didn't know about it, but just over ten years later, Fang Yan came to the door and asked Sun Qinghua to fulfill it. promise.

…

At the beginning, this incident shocked the entire Sun family, and the old lady was even more unwilling.

But helplessly, Sun Qinghua kept his promises, and Fang Yan is not what he used to be. Although he has no fame, he is now the master of Zhou Guangrui, the Lianghuai salt transport envoy. Regardless of the fact that the Salt Transport Envoy is only from the third rank, and is only one level behind the magistrate of the fourth rank, in fact, all those who can sit on this position are all simple in the emperor's heart and are deeply valued by the emperor.

Although the master is small, the power behind him is huge. The Sun family says they are from a scholarly family, but in fact their family has been in decline in recent years. After Sun Qinghua became a Jinshi, his official career was not satisfactory, and he had only reached the fourth rank of the Shaoxing magistrate for more than ten years. If Fang Yan and Zhou Guangrui can get in touch with each other through Fang Yan, in fact, this marriage is not a bad one.

Except that Fang Fengsheng was in filial piety at that time, and his mother had just passed away. If Sun Wencheng wanted to marry her, he had to hurry up within a hundred days. After they got married, the two couldn't consummate the house for the time being, because Fang Fengsheng had to keep filial piety for his mother for three years.

This is a request from the Fang family.

At that time, Fang Fengsheng and Sun Wencheng were only seventeen years old, and it seemed that there was no hindrance to consummating the house one day earlier and one day later. However, Sun Wencheng spent most of his time away from school in order to advance his career, and did not spend much time in the mansion. The old lady was dissatisfied with the marriage, so no one cared about whether the house was consummated or not.

In this way, the Sun family and the Fang family got married.

But no one thought that Fang Yan had an accident within two years of their marriage, and he was still involved in such a major court case. Fang Fengsheng was not liked by the old lady in the first place, but now it has become the root cause of trouble for the Sun family.

So how could the old lady like her? How could it be possible to like her!

But the old lady seemed to have changed her temperament suddenly, and Fang Fengsheng became more pleasant.

Now in the Sun family, no one knew that Fourth Grandma had become the old lady's favorite person.

Don't say that Wang Yueer didn't understand, in fact, many people didn't understand.

…

The old lady sighed and looked at her beautiful granddaughter.

Wang Yueer looks after her mother, who is the old lady's youngest daughter Sun Yingmei. It's a pity that Sun Yingmei was a miserable person. She lost her husband at a young age, and she became depressed and sick with her. Both of Wang Yueer's parents died, and she had no one to rely on, so she was taken by the old lady to accompany Sun's parents.

The old lady loves her daughter dearly, so naturally she is also very kind to her granddaughter. Wang Yue'er grew up under the old lady's knees since she was a child, so it's natural that the person with the most serious heart doesn't want to think about it.

Such a sharp-hearted person, now that he is over 18 years old, his marriage is still not settled.

It's not that the Sun family didn't propose marriage to Wang Yue'er, but she didn't like anyone, so she just dragged it down.

In fact, everyone in the Sun family didn't know what Miss Biao was thinking, but so what, unless Wang Yueer was willing to be a concubine.

But how could the old lady be willing to let her granddaughter be a concubine? Even if the old lady was willing, the two masters of the Sun family would not.

"Do you know what the servants in the mansion were talking about a while ago?"

Wang Yue'er didn't expect the old lady to ask such a question, and was taken aback for a moment: "What do you say?"

"It is said that the fourth grandma will abdicate for Miss Biao."

Wang Yueer first blushed in Fu Rong's face, and then smiled a little, and there was a bit of color between her brows.

She was indeed the one who released the news, and she wanted to take advantage of the accident in the Fang family to completely force Fang Fengsheng to death. Unexpectedly, Fang Fengsheng was really sick, but he never died, but he was fine. Well, let alone, recently she has become a popular person in front of the old lady, which makes her seem to have fallen out of favor.

Seeing the expression on her granddaughter's face confirmed the old lady's conjecture, she couldn't help but resent the irony and said: "Do you think everyone in this house is a fool?"

"Grandmother?"

"No one in this mansion is a fool. Do you know that even if something happens to the Fang family, the Sun family can't divorce Fang Fengsheng at this juncture. It will only leave the Sun family with a mean name. Not only can't you get rid of yourself, but you have a guilty conscience. Even if the Sun family divorced Fang Fengsheng regardless of their reputation, it shouldn't be because of this kind of rumors. Do you still want your own reputation? Force your cousin to leave, doves occupy the magpie's nest? Whose daughter dares to marry into the Sun family in the future, what will happen to Brother Hong, Sister Yan and their future marriages?"

"Grandmother!" Wang Yueer was completely stunned.

"You girl!" The old lady sighed, not only lamenting the suffering of her granddaughter, but also the fact that this child was raised under her knees since she was a child, but she didn't learn anything, and her thoughts are so simple that people can't bear to look directly at them. I don't blame Cheng'er don't like her.

This is also the third sigh of the old lady.

"Wencheng will be retiring in August. He has always valued Mrs. Fang. This will make him suspend Mrs. Fang, or if Mrs. Fang dies, he will fail the final exam. If he fails, he will have to wait another three years!"

This is also the reason why the old lady's attitude has changed drastically, and it is also the reason why the Sun family is obviously afraid of getting into trouble, but still allows Fang Fengsheng, the root cause of trouble, to stay in the Sun family and do nothing.

Nothing is as important as Sun Wencheng's rural exam!

The Sun family is weak, and in these two generations, except for Sun Qinghua's success in the exam, the others have achieved nothing. When it came to Sun Wencheng's generation, the children in Dafang were not mentioned, they were all dull, only Sun Wencheng was extremely intelligent since he was a child, and became a scholar when he was fourteen.

His teacher, Mr. Nan Wu, said that as long as Sun Wencheng does not perform abnormally this time, he will definitely win the exam. Mr. Nan Wu is a well-known Confucian in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Sun Wencheng has been studying with him and was accepted as a closed disciple by him. Since he said so, he must be right.

So the next generation of the Sun family all pointed to Sun Wencheng.

There were rumors in the mansion before, and Sun Qinghua came to see the old lady. Although the old lady was a little reluctant, she still listened to her son and knew which was more important.

Under the general trend, the attitude of the old lady must change. Only when she changes, will the rest of the house change.

"But grandmother, what should I do?"

Wang Yueer began to cry.

She was born slender and weak, and when she cried, pear blossoms rained down, which made people feel pity.

Wang Yueer and Sun Yingmei look alike, but Sun Yingmei has been in poor health since she was a child. The old lady spent her whole life on her daughter, but in the end she couldn't prevent her daughter from dying prematurely. At this time, she saw her granddaughter who looked like her daughter crying like this , the old lady is also heartbroken.

But she stroked Wang Yue'er's back, but she didn't say a word.

Wang Yueer's heart turned cold, but she was also at a loss.

"Girl, this servant looks cheerful when she sees Qin'er's face. This girl looks down on others, and she didn't answer her when she came here before. Seeing her dog-legged appearance today, I wish I could kneel down and lick the soles of your shoes." On the way back, Zhichun Said with eyebrows flying.

Fang Fengsheng shook his head with a smile, and walked forward slowly.

"Look at those dogs who look down on people in the future, dare to look down on girls!"

"Then you haven't thought about why the old lady who never liked me changed her attitude?"

"This-"

Zhichun's eyes became suspicious, and he said, "Could it be because of the Fourth Young Master?"

When mentioning Sun Wencheng, Fang Fengsheng's eyes flashed a trace of complexity, but it was also fleeting. She walked forward: "You are not stupid."

Zhichun quickly chased after him: "The fourth young master is the girl's husband, so he should support the girl as a matter of course."

"Then have you ever wondered why the old lady's attitude was not affected by the fourth young master before? How long will the old lady's attitude last, and will she turn her face and deny her soon? There are rumors in the whole house that the fourth grandma wants to Why did the old lady change her attitude after giving way to the cousin girl?"

Fang Fengsheng's series of questions really tested Zhichun's IQ. She thought for a while, then said dejectedly: "This servant is stupid, I really can't figure it out."

Fang Fengsheng is not surprised, Zhichun has never been a person who thinks too much, but Mother He is careful enough, but unfortunately she thinks too much, and it is inevitable that her hands will be tied up.

She stopped and looked up at the square sky above her head: "It's okay if you can't think of it. The woman in the backyard lives a sad and pitiful life. Whether she is safe or not depends on the face of the superior. But It's really amazing that a small back house of the Sun Mansion can perform all kinds of dramas..."

She shook her head and smiled, as if she was pitying others, but also herself. .

"girl."

Fang Fengsheng withdrew his gaze and took a deep breath: "Zhichun, I want to see Uncle Yu."

Zhichun's complexion suddenly changed, and he hesitated and said: "Girl, what did you do when you saw Uncle Yu? Last time you saw Uncle Yu, you vomited blood and passed out on the spot. Girl, don't think that the servant's mouth is broken, the matter is already like this, It's useless to think too much, let's just stay here, those things are beyond our control..."

"Can you stop me for a while, can you stop me for a lifetime?" Fang Fengsheng said suddenly.

Zhichun lost her voice.

She really can't stop the girl for a lifetime.
